REVIEW: Frenops Black Core Cardstock for MTG Proxies: Worth It?
test eriwjor oo
A practical look at Frenops black core and blue core cardstock for MTG proxies, including price math, printer compatibility, toner cost, curling, and sticker-method use.
Pros
- Strong black core opacity with a premium, real-card feel
- Very cheap per card in bulk (around 5 cents per blank card)
- Sold in bulk, with a thinner 300gsm blue-core option for sticker workflows
- Excellent print results on a compatible laser or UV printer
Cons
- Not beginner or inkjet friendly: it needs a laser or UV printer
- Running costs add up: heavy toner use, third-party toner saturation issues and jams
- 330gsm can end up too thick, especially for the sticker method or double-sided UV
