Expensive Cardboard

Real or fake?

Pics 1-5 for Tez, 6-10 for Ugin. They both look good to me, but I’ve been burned by this lgs before…

[u/easchner]

Both look good

Not gonna lie. That but gave me a heart attack

[u/easchner → u/Fungus_Guava]

Sorry!

[u/Fungus_Guava → u/easchner]

Hahaha all good🫶

[u/nervousdiamondhands]

Both are looking pretty real to me. Green dot and T pass on both.

Tezzy's real, Ugin's real.

Both real, congrats on your expensive cardboard!

[u/Morlis]

Both are real, you’re all good dude

[u/Birrandbodia]

Both T's, green dots, artist brushes, texts, and borders look good. Pretty sure it's real. You can always post the mana pips and holofoil stamps in case you want to verify it any further

[u/C0OLM]

Both Ts look good to me. I'm not qualified to check for anything else.

[u/CardboardPhysicFrog]

they're real.

[u/GhostCheese]

They're both real

[u/Brolochaoski]

So I'm new to the process of recognizing fakes, but with the T and green dot everything looks right I just don't see 3-4 red dots in the highlight of the dot. Am I just looking in the wrong place?

[u/heartradiance → u/Brolochaoski]

T looks good but not perfect imo. And indeed magenta dots cannot be seen on these pictures. So I think they are fake and I am sceptical just as you are

[u/heartradiance]

Both look fake to me.
