It is a Modern Pro Tour weekend which I really enjoyed watching the coverage of Wizards and that the outcome was pretty much overwhelming. Lantern control played by Luis Salvatto was able to take the crown and title of Rivals of Ixalan champion with 50,000 dollars added to his stash, and I witnessed the Top 8 matchups as a pretty close matches. The order was Traverse Shadow (3-2) in the quarters, BR Hollow One (3-2) in the semis and lastly, Mardu Pyromancer (3-0) in the Finals against Pro Star Gerry Thompson.
