Early ChallengeWhen Mani moved to Victoria for the university he had no friends and it was harder to play Magic. He turned to Magic Online.
Magic MilestonesFirst PTQ top 8, Mani played all the MTGO PTQs that he could. He remembers doing well but losing in the finals.
Worst Magic MomentMani was playing at a local event and he was undefeated going into the last round. In the last round, he got a deck check and as he waited he wandered around the store. The judge thought he was trying to get information and disqualified him!
