Good morning, it's 7:30 here on the West Coast. I'm up in the room watching the city slowly come to life.

Yesterday was another awesome day for Magic, I watched Zvi Mowshowitz go from being out of contention (0-3 to open the tournament) all the way to 20th place. A big example as to why he earned a spot in the Pro Tour Hall of Fame.

On Monday if you had asked me who I expected to see in the Top 8, I would have said Guaillame Wafo-Tapa without hesitation but he fell short while Shuuhei Nakamura, Makahito Mihara (2006 World Champ), and Paulo Vitor Doma da Rosa all rose to the top.

I'm looking forward to getting down there and seeing just what is going to happen today. We won't be able to get footage on the floor, but we'll be talking to other Pros and regular folks here at the event.

One thing that is fascinating to me is the rise of the Swiss team. Manuel Bucher designed the powerful deck that Wafo-Tapa, the Ruels and others were wielding. And in the top 8 we have Nico Bohny, another member of the 2007 Team Champions from Worlds.

Today's the last day of the event, and what an event it has been. Look forward to the coming episodes, interviews and games you'll see only here on ManaNation
