Professional play
The Kaldheim Championship was Mori's first Top Finish.[1] He had been playing any online event he could find over the previous few months, and had been a frequent innovator in the Standard scene. While he began playing MTG Arena "just for fun" that changed once he hit No. 1 in Mythic ranking — a feat made possible with his more than 24,000 games played online.[2] He showed his deckbuilding skills at the Championship, as he piloted a unique Gruul Food list to a 6-1 finish on his run to the Top 8.
Mori's fourth place in the Kaldheim Championship provided him with acces to the 2020–21 Challenger Gauntlet.[2] Finishing in the Top 2 with Arne Huschenbeth in this play-off tournament, he was rewarded with a place in the 2021 World Championship and in the 2021–22 Magic Pro League.[3]
