What it does
The Top 8 is familiar territory for professional Magic player Dave Humpherys. With over $130,000 in career winnings and a Pro Tour championship on his resume, "The Hump" advanced to the Worlds semifinals for the second year in a row where he lost to eventual champion Daniel Zink. The blue-green madness deck he played has been a Standard mainstay for more than a year. It revolves around Torment madness cards like Basking Rootwalla and Circular Logic, together with discard-enablers like Aquamoeba and Wild Mongrel. Humpherys, who recently earned his Ph.D. from MIT, credits this version of the deck to Norway's Sigurd Eskeland.

Where it came from
The 2003 World Championship Decks were released by Wizards of the Coast to commemorate the top players at the Magic: The Gathering World Championships. This specific deck replicates the strategy used by Dave Humpherys, who reached the top eight of the 2002 World Championships in Sydney. The product provided players with a pre-constructed, tournament-legal deck featuring gold-bordered cards that are distinct from standard tournament cards, serving as both a playable tool and a collectible memento of professional Magic history.
The cards within the deck were selected and tuned to reflect the specific 'Blue-White Control' archetype that Humpherys favored during the competition. While the artwork mirrors the original versions of the cards, the set is distinguished by the signatures of the players printed on the cards and the unique card backs. These decks were intended to offer fans a deeper insight into the professional metagame and the technical construction of high-level decks, eventually becoming prized keepsakes for long-term followers of the game's competitive circuit.
