When did you join Three for One?

I am a part of the team since the Cardmarket Series in Rome. That was in March 2018. The event was our first as a Magic vendor with our very own booth.

What is it that you do at Three for One?

I help customers who want to sell their Magic card collection or their singles. I guide them through the buying process, handle the intake of the collections and create buying offers. I am also in charge of our event vendor booth on most events. Recently I was heavily involved in the organisation of our very first Magic weekend. We called it the 341CON and took place in Graz, Austria.

When did you start playing Magic, and how did it happen?

I started playing in school when I was still a kid. Probably something between eight and twelve years old. Like so many others I took a long hiatus. Eventually the spark kindled again and it got serious when Dragons of Tarkir was released. I was part of a Magic group in Graz that met at this place where heavy cigarette smoke was constantly flooding the room. Apart from that it was great ^^

What was the first Magic edition that you played with?

Dragons of Tarkir.

Your biggest MTG success was …?

I was part of a team that took the 16th place at the 25th Magic Anniversary Team Pro Tour. My team members have been Felix Innauer and our very own David Reitbauer. I also had the best Legacy Deck of the event ^^ (Note: Sultai Shadow)

What is your favorite Magic card?

Hmm, it might be Oko, Thief of Crowns?… Just kidding. It’s obviously Death’s Shadow.

What’s your favorite Magic deck?

Sultai Shadow in Legacy. It’s a pity that Oko is better than Berserk now…

Is there anything we don’t know about you that might surprise us?
