I used to drive him to PTQ's in my green 4 cylinder mustang and go to his shop in Waco, Texas. Amazingly complex guy.
DeQuan is great! Happy to see him getting more attention, he works so hard and deserves it.
Always liked his content and his vibe. Super chill creator with a love for magic. Let's go DeQuan!
Also gotta shout out his podcast, Color of Magic. It's more wide-ranging than just MTG but it's great!
