I’m talking to Helene Bergeot, the Director of Global Organized Play for Wizards of the Coast. Helene shares with us about her role within Wizards, Organized Play and the community at large.

She also answers my questions about the future of coverage, organized play and building partnerships.

Helene also tells us what goes into putting on a Pro Tour.

Helene has big plans to grow the game of Magic by making Organized Play more legitimate and more exciting with bigger future payouts.

I hope you enjoy this very special conversation with Helene Bergeot.

Peer Richelsen is a long time Legacy player and the principal organizer of the Bordifies Eternal Series. He is also the founder of Bordifies.com, a premium perfect-fit sleeve with solid borders for customizing and unifying magic cards. Peer lives in Kiel Germany.

Click to Tweet: I got a ton of value from Peer Richelsen when he shared his story on #MTGProTutor! Listen here: http://bit.ly/mtgprotutor-ep142

First Set

New Phyrexia

Favorite Set

Khans of Tarkir/Innistrad

Favorite Card

Knight of the Reliquary

What makes Magic: The Gathering fun for you?

Peer is very creative and likes to challenge himself to innovate. He loves customizing and building decks.

Early Challenge

Calculating outs. Peer had to shift his thinking to "How do I win in the next three turns?"

Worst Magic Moment

Lost to Triskaidekaphobia in Legacy. Peer's opponent had a surprise card that he lost too and it felt bad losing to a "goofy" card.

Proudest Magic Moment

Danish Legacy Masters - Peer made top 4. He fought through an opponent who cast 3 Liliana of the Veil. It was rough but Peer did it and felt he leveled up and played above his level.

Choosing a Legacy deck

Consistency wins the most, so find a deck with a lot of tutors or a deck with very similar cards.

Deepest Thing You've Learned About Yourself

Peer increased his competitiveness and developed a desire to push his boundaries and improve.

Biggest Mistake Players Make

Not knowing your role. Players misread the board.

Guidance

You grow into the entrepreneurial spirit. If you have an idea just try it out. You'll learn a lot.

Flash's Theme by Queen from the Flash Gordon (Original Soundtrack)

It has been a long time, but we are back in the building!  Matt and the newest tag along, Tim, bring the heat with some modern discussion.  We look over a deck and talk tweaking said deck to your local meta.  Lets be honest though, modern has only one meta currently.  How can this be fixed?  Should we take away some tools or add something the format is missing?  What types of new cards could be printed to help the format?

*We are aware of the few points there is a slight echo throughout episodes 12 and 13.  We believe we know the cause of the issue and will have it fixed moving forward.  In the meantime, enjoy this amazing content and feel free to give us all of your feedback.
