What it does

Daniel Zink, a student from Bochum, Germany, players the control deck that defined this year's World Championships. The white-blue-green "Wake" deck is named after the powerful enchantment that's the heart of the deck. Once Mirari's Wake is in play, the deck produces more mana, draws more cards, counters more spells, and makes more Soldiers than opponents can possibly handle. Zink had help from fellow German and 2002-2003 Player of the Year Kai Budde in adapting the "Wake" deck to the post—Eigth Edition environment.

Provenance

Where it came from

The Daniel Zink Bio card was included in the 2003 World Championship Decks, a product line released by Wizards of the Coast to replicate the exact card lists used by the top eight finishers at the Magic: The Gathering World Championships. This specific deck recreated Daniel Zink's 'Slide' deck, which carried him to the top of the standings. These cards are easily distinguished from standard set printings by their gold-bordered backs and the specific player's signature printed on the card face.

The design of these decks served a dual purpose: they provided players with a functional replica of high-level tournament decks while honoring the competitors who achieved success at the game's highest level. By including biographical cards like this one, the set offered context for Zink’s playstyle and his path to the tournament, providing collectors with a piece of the game's competitive history during its early 2000s golden era.
