This is a really entertaining video documentary on 1998 Nationals, where Matt Linde won against the odds with mono white weenie in a field dominated by Prosperous Bloom combo, mono red Sligh, and mono green stompy.

The story of 90s Magic's most epic showdown, as told by the players that were there.

Released on the 27th anniversary of the day Matt Linde saved Magic.

We interviewed all the key players and spectators. Jon Finkel, Randy Buehler, Matt Linde, Mike Long, Brian Weissman, Chris Pikula and many more!
