Trash Talking With Legacy Elf Master Daniel Nguyen - Ep 320

Kitchen Table Magic

In this episode, I’m talking to the master of Legacy Elves, Daniel Nguyen. Daniel is a Seattle Legacy player who dedicated himself to testing and grinding tournaments. Daniel’s experience and long history with the game lead to him creating a primer on Elves, which has been standard reading for Magic players around the world. Daniel talks with me about growing up playing Magic as a kid, and what he’s doing to help preserve Legacy in today’s Magic community. If you’re going to GP Seattle in April, I’m sure Daniel will be there. (And so will I, come by and say hi) Go say hi to him. He’s super friendly and knows a lot about Legacy. I caught up with Daniel the Summer of 2017. I hope you enjoy my conversation with Daniel Nguyen.
