I would like to introduce you to level 5 pro player Matteo Orsini Jones, who is joining Blackborder.com as an official feature writer!
After running the English PTQ circuit for a few years Matteo started taking home the blue envelopes at the end of 2007, and after that it wasn’t long before he managed to win himself a ticket on the gravy train following a bitter-sweet top 8 finish in Pro Tour Kyoto 2009. This gave him a taste for travel and he subsequently made the top 4 of Grand Prix Bangkok later that year, securing him level 5 in the Pro Players club.

yes! keep it going! matteo is one of my favorite pros and i had the pleasure of playing him and his brother at a PTQ while I was in England. looking forward to seeing his articles
heh, it's easy to forget that the uk does indeed have an actual pro player now. given that some of the articles matteo was writing when he was 14 are more entertaining reads that several of the reads out there, I think this is a great pickup and i'm looking forward to seeing what he has to say

glad to see people are excited! i do indeed have an italian parent, and I will try my best to incorporate cows into my articles (though i can make no promises)
I know Matteo, his articles were amongst the funniest on a UK Website where I used to hang out, looking forward to seeing what he writes!
