Early ChallengeUnderstanding card advantage and board advantage.
Worst Magic MomentLuke lost in the final of a WMCQ. That was really hard near-miss. Luke learned to 'expect the unexpected' as much as possible.
Proudest Magic MomentQualifying for the Pro Tour for the first time. It was very validating as a player to finally have the pay off for all his hard work.
What Have You Learned From MagicLuke honed his critical thinking skills through Magic. Also, socializing with new people.
Biggest Mistake Players MakeGetting too emotionally invested in the game. You can't tie your self-worth to your Magic results. Magic is high variance and you need to be okay with that.
Grand Prix PreparationLuke took a deck he found on a stream to his standard GP. He played Magic Online and studied the format. It was a new format so testing things out was key.
Parting GuidanceHave fun, be nice.
