With a Pro Tour victory already under his belt and a runner up finish at Grand Prix Montreal in 2011, Hayne has piled up an impressive resume just short of his nearly-here 25th birthday. Hayne may not be representing Team Canada at this year's World Magic Cup, but he's quickly becoming Canada's great Stetson-wearing hope.
Surrounded by a field of Jund Midrange, Gruul Aggro, and Bant Hexproof, Hayne and and his UWR Flash deck—not to mention that Calgary-approved hat—proved to be more than up to the challenge of countering his way through the largely Canadian field. After narrowly dispatching Jacob Wilson—who has three Grand Prix Top 8s himself—in the quarterfinals, Hayne soundly defeated two Jund deck on his way to the trophy. After splitting the first two games, Hayne managed to silence Stephane Gerard with a complete victory punctuated by Thundermaw Hellkite and a bevy of Sphinx's Revelations.
