What makes Magic: The Gathering fun for you?
It's always changing.
Early Challenge
Tilting.
You have to be actively aware of tilting in order to combat it
and not let it affect your game-play.
Level Up Moment
Borrowed an Affinity deck and won a win-a-Goyf event.
What Autumn learned was when to play around cards and when not
play around them. It's a fine line but sometimes you need to commit
and force your opponent to have the answer and sometimes you need
to play around the answer.
Autumn played very well at this event and really feel she
leveled up her understanding of playing around cards.
Worst Moment
Pro Tour Atlanta.
Autumn neglected basic self-care and it manifested in her
results.
She learned that sleep, food, hydration and adequate breaks
between rounds are crucial to keeping your mind sharp for a
long day of Magic.
Proudest Magic Moment
Pro Tour Battle For Zendikar.
Autumn made 11th place at her first ever Pro Tour!
Biggest Mistake Players Make
Not knowing your role.
Identifying whether you are the beatdown player or not is
crucial.
This section is a must listen!
Improvement Suggestions
If you are just getting into Magic, watch streams.
That's the cheapest way to improve.
Ozman, Darkest Mage and LSV are all great streamers who explain
what they do so you can understand.
