What makes Magic: The Gathering fun for you?
The art is amazing, the card design is well done, the story is so great.
Marcos also loves how he's met great people and made amazing friends through travel. He also loves traveling because he didn't do much before.
Early Challenge
Marcos didn't know how to mulligan at all. In fact, at his first Grand Prix, he was in a feature match and realized that he had to apply aggressive pressure on his opponent to win. However, he still kept the hand and then lost miserably. He learned from this and made learning how to mulligan better a priority.
Casual Formats
Marcos LOVES Conspiracy draft.
Level Up Moment
At his first Pro Tour, Marcos recognized he knew nothing about the format. So he attached himself to a player who was much better and soaked every lesson up like a sponge. 
Marcos has a lot of cool growth stories from his first Pro Tour. He was able to beat one of the best Limited and one of the best Constructed players in the world at the time.
Proudest Magic Moment
Winning Grand Prix Porto Alegre!

 
Best Format
Standard - It's not that big and you can prepare for it.
Biggest Mistake Players Make
Not taking into account the things you did wrong in a match. Marcos hears people complain about being mana flooded or mana screwed when in reality they could identify turns where they messed up. 
Card Evaluation Tips
By play testing with a team Marcos hones his evaluation skills.
How to Effectively Prepare for a Big Event
Reading articles and relying on his team is Marcos' go-to method.
