What it's like to put a Jace, the Mind Sculptor through the washing machine

I put a Jace through the washing machine a while ago. This is a depiction of how I felt.

Luckily, he was in a hard plastic sleeve when he went through the wash so the damage was minimal for going through a washing machine and dryer. The surface is very grainy, it is slightly warped at the top, and the black border at the top has bled and discolored a bit. Due to the damage, I would like to get a full-art extension done on it at some point to restore it's value, although I never plan on trading it.

Here is a Hi-res photo.

You should definitely keep it like that. It would play serious mind games on your opponents with minimal effort on your part.

Thankfully the graininess doesn't seem as noticable on the art, so a full extension should be able to hide the rest.

Didnt plan on trading it anyway. It's a trophy of accomplishment for my friend and I (my buddy pulled it in a pack he won). Thats why I want to get a full-art extension.

Its definitely playable in a sleeve. Like I said, it was in hard plastic sleeve which saved it from being crumpled.

This is why cards should never enter pockets.

Kind of surprised it looks as good as it does, tbh. Trade it plus some shocks you don't need for a fresh one.
