Louisville native Matt Higgs has loved designing innovative, unique, and synergy-driven decks that put untapped cards in the limelight since embarking on his Magic career in 2006. He has experienced both fulfilling successes and crippling failures that come from building decks from scratch and putting them to test, and he's loved them both. A lifelong writer, Matt has contributed to SCG every single week since November 2012.
