Being with friends.
Finals of a Magic Online Championship Series (MOCS), Corey mulled to 3, and then loses in a two-turn play. A friend told Corey what was at stake if he won and this might have thrown off his focus a bit.
Then, at Grand Prix Albequerque 2013 Corey choked in a late round by firing off a Sphinx's Revelation too early.
Grand Prix Oakland 2016 where Corey locked in Gold Level Pro status was huge but the sportsmanship of his opponent is what stands out to him the most.
Not thinking about the outcome of a play or turn ahead of time. HAVE A PLAN!
Consider how your spells line up with your opponents'.
Limited; adapting to signals and predicting the meta game
Play all kinds of games and puzzles.
Remember, it's a game. HAVE FUN! Relationships are more important.
