Thanks. I've added it to the list of missing promos.

Much as the primary XLHQ torrent compiles all the packaged set releases stretching back for years, his torrent compiles the efforts by the CCGHQ team to produce a comprehensive set of standalone promos. This torrent should include everything that's been scanned and released, stretching from the oldest promo cards (Arena and Sewers of Estark, I believe) to whichever fresh 2015 promos we've already processed -- everything not included here should be listed in the "Missing Promos" link.

It's currently assembled to include all known English language promos, as well as the primary language for promo sets that don't exist in English (e.g. MPS lands.) Beyond the normal promo series Magic cards, it also includes some other oddities: several sets of oversized promotional cards, all known promotional tokens, the brief-lived Pro Player cards, some Ravnica guild promotional magnets, rare or variant sets (like a few Summer Magic scans we have), unique digital-only cards, and so on.

Everything in this torrent is presented (and properly labeled) in XLHQ, i.e. 300 DPI images. For some cards, this might be the first release, or at least the first compiled release, at that size. For cards of unusual size (e.g. 8th Edition boxtoppers) this 300 DPI scale is maintained, which should result in images that are proportionately sized the same way as the real cards.

Some samples of what's included:

Summer Magic | Open

Unique Promo | Open

Promotional Token | Open

Guild Magnet | Open

Digital Card | Open

Judge Promo | Open

If you pull down the torrent, please let me know if you spot any mistakes or oddities, and whether the categorization strategy on display here makes sense.

Thanks to everyone who put in hard work to bring these scans together!
