GRAND PRIX UTRECHT 2015

Among 3,613 competitors, it was Italian Davide Vergoni who stood tall at the very end, hoisting the trophy and claiming the title of champion of Grand Prix Utrecht 2015!

CHECK OUT THE FINAL MATCH

GRAND PRIX UTRECHT 2015

TOP 8 COVERAGE

Davide Vergoni didn't exactly come out of nowhere and certainly was no stranger to the competitive Magic scene before this event. In fact, he started playing Magic twenty years ago, thanks to his brother who taught him the game in 1995. However, this event marked the first time the 30-year-old Italian had been able to reach the Top 8 of a Grand Prix. And he certainly made it count, claimed the title and the trophy, and made Magic history.

The format for Grand Prix Utrecht was, of course, Modern Masters 2015 Edition Limited, one of the most challenging but also rewarding environments for drafters and deck builders alike. Throughout the tournament we had seen powerful artifact decks and green/white token strategies, Spirits and Elementals, but in the end two multicolored decks met in the finals. There, Vergoni's version easily bested Lars Rosengren's version despite the latter's five Tribal Flames

Congratulations to Davide Vergoni, champion (and master) of Grand Prix Utrecht 2015!

Day 1 of Grand Prix Utrecht 2015, the second leg of our world-spanning Modern Masters Weekend, is in the books. 3,613 players had started the tournament in the morning, but after nine grueling rounds of Sealed Deck play, this number has been reduced to a much more manageable but still impressive 387.
