In this episode, I’m talking to platinum pro Jiachen Tao. JC won Pro Tour Oath of the Gatewatch with a modern Blue Red Eldrazi deck.

And since then, JC has gone on compete in the 2016 World Championships, where he placed 7th

JC shares with us how to get better at Magic, and what’s it’s like facing off against all those scary elite pros.

I really liked the advice that JC gave us:

If you want to become a pro, dedicate time to get the practice in, and take note of your mistakes.

And by making friends with people in the community you’ll gain access to better players that can help you improve.

I also want to congratulate JC and Jess, as they’re expecting a baby soon. Congratulations to the both of you!

If you run into JC at a tournament and he looks extra sleepy, you’ll know why.

If you’re interested in hearing more about the highest levels of Magic competition, listen to my interview with 2016 World Champion Brian Braun-Duin, Season 1, Episode 15.

A year ago I sold 3 Tarmogoys, a Karn Liberated and an extra playset of Snapcaster Mages to fund basic audio equipment and server costs for Kitchen Table Magic.

After 9 months, my funds have run dry.

A lot goes into making Kitchen Table Magic, and I need your help.

If you love the show and want me to keep going, you can show me that Kitchen Table Magic is worth it to you by heading over to Patreon.com/KitchenTableMagic to become a supporter.

Just a few bucks a month can keep Kitchen Table Magic going.

A big high five to my Patreon supporter, Brian and Markus.

This week on the Cardhoarder Podcast Dave returns and actually shares some positive opinions on the Magic Online Championship.  Josh Utter-Leyton won the tournament but the talk of the weekend was the change in coverage.  Does the Vintage Super League style of coverage work on this scale?  Modern Masters 2017 full spoiler was released.  Conor, Nathaniel, and Dave argue whether Wizards included too many money cards into one set.  Other topics include SCG Louisville now Team Constructed, the additions to the Pauper format via MM17, Magic Online Wishlist, and trying to figure out the origin of obscure words.

This week Corey and Darrel talk about the financial implications of MM3 specific to Modern players. Is it too late to buy into playsets of cards that were not reprinted?

Petr Sochurek has been playing Magic since he was 11, and started grinding PTQs and GPs at about 16. He qualified to Valencia, where he made top 16 at his first Pro Tour with Merfolk. He’s a Platinum Level Pro with 4 Grand Prix top 8, including a finals at Rimini and a win at Paris.

Click to Tweet: I got a ton of value from Petr Sochurek when he shared his story on #MTGProTutor! Listen here: http://bit.ly/mtgprotutor-ep180

What makes Magic: The Gathering fun for you?

Petr loves to win. He enjoys the challenge and complications.

Early Challenge

Petr learned how to learn. After each game, Petr asks what he could have done better.

Breakthrough Moment

When Petr was 18-19 he qualified for his first Pro Tour.

Worst Magic Moment

Petr lost his first PPTQ final and didn't qualify for the Pro Tour. He learned how bad he wanted the Pro Tour and prepared even harder.

Proudest Magic Moment

Making Platinum in 2016. To get there he practiced every day online.

What Have You Learned From Magic

Petr has become more analytical.

Magic Mentor

Lukas Blohon, Martin Juza

Tournament Day Tips

Get some sleep and practice wake up at the time you would for the tournament. Bananas and fruits.

Deepest Thing You've Learned About Yourself

Petr learned if he really wants something he willing to sacrifice for it.

Biggest Mistake Players Make

People make the 80% right play. People don't think through their play and don't realize when they should make the 20% play.

How to Effectively Prepare for a Big Event

Petr is open to playing any deck. He talks with other players and knows that just because his good players mean he knows everything.

Parting Guidance

You can learn from every single game. Don't complain.
