Andrew Cuneo is an American professional Magic player.

Professional play

A member of Team CMU in the late '90s alongside players like Randy Buehler, Mike Turian, and Erik Lauer. Cuneo again came into prominence as a member of Car Acrobatic Team, which consisted of members of Team CMU and with whom he finished in the top eight of two Pro Tours. Cuneo is also known as an important deckbuilder, in particular when it comes to control decks; he is largely attributed to the invention of draw-go-decks. He returned after a long hiatus from professional play at the 2011 World Championships, and has not missed a Pro Tour since. In this time period, notable accomplishments include three Grand Prix wins, at GP Mexico City 2017, GP Indianapolis 2017, and GP Richmond 2018; and a streak of seven Pro Tours in 2014 and 2015 where his worst finish was 53rd. Additionally, as a member of the Ultimate Guard pro team, he won the 2017–18 Pro Tour Team Series. In December 2018, it was announced that Cuneo would be one of the 32 players joining the upcoming 2019 Magic Pro League. On the back of his first individual Pro Tour Top 8 at Mythic Championship VI Richmond, he finished in the Top 20 by a scratch, so he could continue in the 2020 Season.
