Summary: In this episode I’ll be talking to the future of Magic: The Gathering, our kids. Who are the little mages that will carry the planeswalker spark into the future? Dana Fischer, little Nissa cosplayer and GP grinder, is barely big enough to the hold the cards, but she knows how to cast them. She’s beaten many opponents playing Elves. Nathan Steuer, competes at almost every tournament he can. A member of Team Versus Games from the San Francisco bay area, he’s ready to chew up anyone that stands in his way. Ethan Brown, a wiz kid from Portland stunned the coverage team when he made it to the finals of GP LA piloting Modern Affinity. Armed with a fierce knowledge of the metagame, he is eager to return to the Pro Tour. Miley Chen, this young spellslinger from Boston enjoys EDH, draft, and most importantly griefing her dad, Mainn. They practice drafts together often so I won’t be surprised if I see Miley at the Pro Tour soon. Leo Strober-Cohen, hails from Magic’s home town of Seattle. He’s excited to brew up decks and experiment in the game of Magic. He cares about making Magic more accessible in cost to all players that love the game. Quinn Kiefer, proud member of the Kiefer Brothers trio, Quinn has battled with the biggest names in Magic. Quinn is attending his first Pro Tour later this year at Pro Tour 25th Anniversary. All of these rising stars are eager to compete at the Pro Tour and one day see themselves in the Hall of Fame. I hope you enjoy my conversations with Dana Fischer, Nathan Steuer, Ethan Brown, Miley Chen, Leo Strober-Cohen, and Quinn Kiefer.
