SALVATTO STORMS WIZARDS

Luis Salvatto stormed through three formats--including the Top 8 with his Red-White Midrange deck--to become the 2015 Super Sunday Series champion!

2015 SUPER SUNDAY SERIES CHAMPIONSHIP

DAY 2 COVERAGE

For Luis Salvatto of Argentina, opportunities to travel for Magic are few and far between. While Salvatto had a chance to test himself at the top level back in 2011 at the World Championship, getting back onto the Pro Tour had been a challenge. The Super Sunday Series offered another chance to travel the world through Magic when he competed and won in an event at Grand Prix Santiago last year.

The win there ensured his visit to Wizards of the Coast HQ, where he has had a chance to meet many new friends from all over the world, travel to the home of the game, and compete for a sizable prize of $6,000 USD. Salvatto squeaked into the Top 8 through the final rounds, and didn't stop there.

Armed with a powerful Red-White Midrange deck, Salvatto was poised with a question multiple times during the Top 8 when casting Outpost Siege: Khans of Dragons. In a choice between allegiances, Salvatto went with both during varying games, showcasing the power of the red enchantment on many different levels. The support of Khans and Outpost Siege ensured his stream of cards to defeat finalist Oscar Christensen of Denmark in the finals.

The 2015 Super Sunday Series Championship has showcased some friendly, competitive, and passionate individuals, and Salvatto's performance captured this all in one exciting victory.
