Director of Magic: The Gathering play programs William “Huey” Jensen honored Hall of Fame legend Kai Budde at the MH3 Pro Tour in Amsterdam, naming the Player Trophy of the Year after the veteran competitor as he continues to battle cancer.
Winning is something Kai Budde has mastered within MTG, known to many as one of the greatest players of all time. And he has the accolades to prove it. Before the top eight was announced at the MH3 Pro Tour in Amsterdam, Huey stepped to the main stage to honor Budde for his accomplishments over the years. Having earned Player of the Year four times throughout his career, the prestigious award will now be called the Kai Budde Player of the Year trophy from his point on.
