A tu są profile graczy z teamów Top 8: http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/eventcoverage/wmc12/Top_8_profiles
Polecam zwłaszcza profil Pendraka i Kopcia ; ) Adam za to podszedł bardzo poważnie do tematu. Tak czy inaczej chłopaki reprezentują bardzo dobry poziom i niezależnie od podejścia rozegrali już najlepsze Worldsy dla kraju, a jeszcze mają do rozegrania Top 8. Wszystko jest możliwe!
Info o Polakach jest zacytowane w spoilerze poniżej:
At the 4th seed in the Top 8, Poland has had quite the journey for this event. They ended the first day as the 18th seed, due largely to the fairly even performance from their team during the individual rounds. Tomek Pedrakowski went 5–2, while his team all went 4–3. They began their climb to the Top 8 during Day Two, where, in Stage 1, they defeated the Dominican Republic and Peru while losing to the Slovak Republic. And then in Stage 2 they defeated Scotland, Slovenia, and Estonia to sweep into the Top 8. Kopec and Pedrakowski will be in the forefront as they battle for the World Magic Cup.

Making Top 8. Team match with the Slovak Republic had great atmosphere.

Age: 24
Hometown: Dabrowa Gornicza
Occupation: No, thanks
Other previous Magic accomplishments: 1st place, Grand Prix Vienna
What Constructed format and deck are you playing, and why?
Modern, because only I know anything about the format. I’m playing RUG Midrange because it has no bad matchups, and this is very important in team play.
What has been your best memory of the World Magic Cup so far?
The match against Slovakia, because the similarity of our languages mean there were a lot of jokes and funny situations… well, actually making Top 8 was better…
What would winning the first World Magic Cup mean to you and your country?
For me it would just be another great success. However our prizes would double Polish GDP.

Block Constructed because nobody wanted to play it. I played GBR Jund, because Mateusz Kopec said that is good.
What has been your best memory of the World Magic Cup so far?
Just Topdecks, no skills. It’s about me.
What would winning the first World Magic Cup mean to you and your country?
For me, it will just be a memory, for Poland, economic growth.
