Seth Manfield is an American professional player and former World Champion; he won the 2015 World Championship.
Professional play
He also has five Grand Prix wins as well as four Pro Tour top eights, including a win at Pro Tour Ixalan in 2017. His other top eight appearances were at PT Fate Reforged, where he finished in sixth-place, at PT Shadows over Innistrad, where he finished third, and at PT Hour of Devastation, where he finished eighth. He came close to becoming the 2015–16 Player of the Year, but was overtaken by Owen Turtenwald when the latter finished second at the last Pro Tour of the year, PT Eldritch Moon. In 2017–18, he again missed the Player of the Year title: his lead was tied at the last event of the season, Grand Prix Stockholm, by Luis Salvatto, and eventually lost in the playoff between the two.
In 2018, Manfield was voted into the Hall of Fame, and later that year, it was announced that he would be one of the 32 players joining the upcoming 2019 Magic Pro League. Because he finished in the Top 20 in the 2019 Magic Pro League, he could continue in the 2020 Season.
