Team: The Lucerne Triplets
I play MTG since Lorwyn and after years of kitchen table Magic with bad proxy decks (donating a Master of Cruelties and forcing it to attack into my Near-Death Experience) I started playing Modern. Birthing Pod was my first deck and ever since I enjoyed playing permanent based synergy decks.
Sultai Time Sieve is my favorite combo deck of all time, but the truth is that food decks were never really that good. As I enjoy winning way too much, I'm constantly switch decks to adjust to the new meta. Friends say I change my decks more often than my underwear!
I love dressing up for every Two-Headed Giant Prerelease with my Friend Yannick Mulle. Stories from attending Grand Prixs, 4Seasons, or the MKM Series with my friends is what ties up MTG for me.
Magic is still one of my bigger hobbies and therefore I'm honored to be planing the new Carab store in Lucerne opening in March 2025.
