Title: Favourite Pro (other than Finkel)
Post by: Mattao19 on February 19, 2014, 04:15:40 PM
Bc lets be serious everyone's favourite pro is Jon Finkel.

Who's you're favourite pro? New old? Maybe a guy who's famous in Legacy but not in anything else?

I personally like Christian Calcano. Idk why lol but he seems like a cool guy :P

I met both Brian Kibler (I have an autographed Kalonian Hydra by him actually) and Reid Duke (signed Bogle) and I have to say they are top 3 for me. Of course Finkle is there but I will say I do like Tom Martel as well.

I don't know Mike Flores but why the hate?

Honestly, it was fine until he said his deck only loses to variance.  He also defended Tibalt, simply because it was a two mana Planeswalker.

Ew why?

True. I gotta say that I'm very happy with the magic pros! I only dislike one Willy Edel other than that they're all great!

Reid Duke. He looks at things very analytically and has really good insight on the interworkings of the game.

Not Finkel.

My favorite right now is Reid Duke.

So humble and down to earth. :)

Close second is Alexander Hayne... in a streak right now, GP after GP standard azorious control... Insane luck on the draw!

CHAPIN!!!! His magic career is one that I model almost all decisions in magic after. I love his creativity, his heart for teaching, and most of all his raw passion for the game and it's community. I love the way he sees the game and his writings have been a huge help in stepping up my game.

Thats why he has such passion. After that he couldnt get a job or most of his basic necessities. His only option after he got out was to be really really really good at magic to the point where he could live off of it. Magic literally saved his life.
