"Neal Oliver's weekend started much like the other 4,499 players who signed up to be a part of Grand Prix Las Vegas.
It ended , however, with Oliver hosting the historic trophy as the last man standing in the largest Magic tournament ever held.
After starting 0-1 and nearly dropping, Oliver went the next 17 rounds without dropping another match on the way to his crown. Along the way he bested a field full of Melokus, Kamigawa Dragons, Kiki-Jikis, Tarmogoyfs and more of Modern Master's biggest and baddest. And when the dust settled, he grabbed the championship with nothing more than a few 1/1s, a Bonesplitter, and a plan."
