Michael Turian is Pro Tour Hall of Famer and a former Magic developer and the Organized Play Digital Manager for Wizards of the Coast.[5][6] He was invited to become part of Magic R&D by his former teammate Randy Buehler, then Director of Magic.

Mike has since moved from R&D to Organized Play, where he is putting his several years of experience playing in Magic tournaments to good use. [7] [8] He works on projects such as Wizards Event Reporter and the Store & Event Locator. Being in Organized Play means he gets to work with all of the OP offerings such as Friday Night Magic, Pro Play, and Magic Celebration. [9]
