The head judge has the descretion to issue proxies if cards have become damaged (and it isn't the owner's fault). In this situation I would guess that the head judge would make a proxy and have you play with it until a new card can be acquired. However the head judge is not required to do this.

3.4 Proxy Cards

A proxy card is used during competition to represent an Authorized Game Card that has been accidentally damaged or excessively worn in the current tournament (including damaged or misprinted Limited product) as determined solely by the Head Judge. Proxies are not allowed as substitutes for cards that their owner has damaged intentionally or through negligence. Players may not create their own proxies; they may only be created by the Head Judge. When a judge creates a proxy, it is included in the players deck and must be denoted as a proxy in a clear and conspicuous manner. The original card is kept nearby during the match and replaces the proxy while in a public zone as long as it is recognizable. A proxy is valid only for the duration of the tournament in which it was originally issued

If a card you're using is damaged during the course of a tournament, call a judge immediately. The head judge of an event has the authority to issue a proxy to replace your card for the remainder of your participation.

You should also get the info of whoever damaged your property and demand a replacement.
