The community and interacting with people makes Magic fun for Jacob.
At his 2nd Grand Prix, Jacob finished 12-3.
Grand Prix Los Angeles (May 2016). Jacob started 5-0 and then got a loss that he realized was his fault. He qualified for day 2 but dropped to get more experience in a side event. Later he wished he played day 2 so he could learn more.
Top 8 of Grand Prix Denver.
Know from round to round the game plan of the current top decks.
Some decks which powerful for a reason. Don't be afraid to plan the best deck.
Learning how to not carry over mistake or losses.
Players sequence lands or top lands in a way that gives away information.
Leading up to GP Denver, Jacob played 5 Leagues and learned which decks were going to be good.

Not getting enough out of matches when playing online. After each match you want to review what happened and which cards were good and carried weight.
Stay focused during games. Reflect after the round, focus during.
