The Magic: The Gathering world lost one of its greatest players with the passing of Kai Budde. Known as "The German Juggernaut," Kai lived up to the nickname through his stunning record as a competitive Magic player. With five Pro Tour titles, two Team Pro Tour titles, seven Grand Prix wins, an incredible string of Top 8 appearances, a Magic World Championship win in 1999, a Team World Championship win in 2002, a Team Masters Series title in 2002, recognition as Player of the Year an unprecedented four times, and induction into the Pro Tour Hall of Fame in 2007, Kai's unrivaled accomplishments left a monumental mark on Magic that has inspired countless players.
