It was a really exciting Pro tour overall. The other thing about Magic is that it has a growing group of amateur journalists / bloggers / podcasters covering it and so it is fostering its own media and coverage, even beyond what Wizards itself is doing.

ManaNation.com (my site) was there and we were tweeting match results as they happened and interviewing players as the tournament went on.

The Magic World Championships are happening next month in Rome Italy and that will be the really big show, a four day long tournament for both individuals and national teams to compete.

@Pete, you’re right I don’t know why I listed him as the top player. I’ll fix it. (Thanks for the heads up)

Magic’s bigger than ever and the new expansions have been selling faster than hotcakes. Just to clarify, Brian is NOT the top ranked player, he just placed first in this event.

Thanks for covering the game! It’s great to see GOD not ignore us tabletop geeks!
