Top 8 Players and Decks of Pro Tour Lorwyn Eclipsed – MAGIC PLAY

Over 300 players came to Richmond, Virginia to compete in Pro Tour Lorwyn Eclipsed. After two days of hard-fought Draft and Standard round, we have our Top 8! These Magic superstars will face off on Sunday, February 1, for the title of Pro Tour champion and all the prestige that comes with it.

Marco Belacca

1 Cori Mountain Monastery 1 Thundering Falls 2 Mistrise Village 2 Elegant Parlor 1 Abrade 4 Consult the Star Charts 4 Floodfarm Verge 4 Hallowed Fountain 4 Get Lost 4 Jeskai Revelation 2 Spell Snare 4 No More Lies 1 The Unagi of Kyoshi Island 2 Day of Judgment 4 Lightning Helix 2 Meticulous Archive 4 Stock Up 2 Riverpyre Verge 2 Rest in Peace 1 Plains 4 Steam Vents 2 Ultima 3 Sunbillow Verge 2 Tishana’s Tidebinder 1 Exorcise 2 Beza, the Bounding Spring 2 Annul 1 Pyroclasm 1 Riverchurn Monument 1 Day of Judgment 2 Voice of Victory 2 Torpor Orb 1 The Unagi of Kyoshi Island

After competing in every Pro Tour in 2025, Italian Marco Belacca kicked off another great season by making the Top 8 of Pro Tour Lorwyn Eclipsed. Belacca emerged as the lone undefeated at the end of Day One, wielding a Jeskai Control deck (with just a single creature card in the main deck) that took advantage of the creature-heavy metagame. He only needs that one creature card to win—or zero if Jeskai Revelation is involved—and that could earn him his first Pro Tour trophy on Sunday.

Christoffer Larsen is no stranger to competitive Magic or the Sunday stage. With multiple Top appearances across many events, from Pro Tours and Grand Prix to Magic Online and the Regional Championships, Larsen is a proven player who ended the 2025 season one point short of a World Championship invitation. Now the cheerful Danish star is right back into the Top 8, ready to claim his first Pro Tour victory in Richmond.

Guglielmo Lupi is early in his Pro Tour career, but he has been on an incredible streak recently. He recently won a Magic Online Champions Showdown in October, earned a finalist appearance at the European RC in November, then made Top 8 at Magic Spotlight: The Avatar in Lyon in January. Now he battled to the top tables in Richmond to claim his first Pro Tour Top 8. Will his hot hands be enough to claim the Pro Tour Lorwyn Eclipsed trophy?

After representing Croatia across several team World Championship appearances in the late 2000s, Toni Portolan carved a path across the 2025 season. After a strong finish at Pro Tour Aetherdrift, a Top 8 at Pro Tour Magic: The Gathering®—FINAL FANTASY™, then another strong performance at both Pro Tour Edge of Eternities and Magic World Championship 31 Portolan finished the year third in Player of the Year standings. Here in Richmond, he didn’t slow down at all, notching his second Pro Tour Top 8. Now he’s marching toward a trophy at Pro Tour Lorwyn Eclipsed.

Eduardo Sajgalik

1 Cori Mountain Monastery 1 Thundering Falls 4 Sunderflock 4 Vibrance 4 Bounce Off 4 Starting Town 4 Wistfulness 3 Deceit 4 Winternight Stories 4 Secluded Courtyard 3 Breeding Pool 4 Flamebraider 1 Eclipsed Realms 1 Island 4 Ashling, Rekindled 4 Cavern of Souls 1 Pit of Offerings 4 Steam Vents 1 Spirebluff Canal 4 Roaming Throne 1 Disdainful Stroke 1 The Unagi of Kyoshi Island 3 Spell Snare 2 Sear 1 Deceit 1 Spider-Sense 3 Pyroclasm 2 Soul-Guide Lantern 1 Pit of Offerings

Eduardo has seen all sides of the competitive Magic world. He’s led Limited testing for Team Worldly Counsel, commentated Grand Prix and Pro Tour coverage in the 2010s, and made the Top 8 Pro Tours in 2012 and 2017. Sajgalik qualified for Pro Tour Lorwyn Eclipsed through the Magic Online Champions Showdown and a Top 8 appearance at a Regional Championship in Calgary. While his initial goal was just to qualify for the next Pro Tour, he’s done that and more with his mighty Izzet Elementals deck.

Luis Salvatto

Luis Salvatto, the winner of Pro Tour Rivals of Ixalan, has his sights on a second Pro Tour champion title. Salvatto and the rest of Team Cosmos Heavy Play have been on a hot streak, with Luis himself making the Top 16 of Pro Tour Edge of Eternities and qualifying for this weekend’s event. Piloting an excruciatingly powerful Dimir Excruciator deck in the Top 8, he plans to turn his opponent’s doomsday into another trophy.

Francisco Sánchez

5 Island 4 Gran-Gran 2 Three Steps Ahead 1 Agna Qel’a 4 Combustion Technique 3 Mountain 2 Spell Snare 3 Iroh’s Demonstration 1 Multiversal Passage 4 Firebending Lesson 4 Monument to Endurance 4 Accumulate Wisdom 4 Abandon Attachments 2 It’ll Quench Ya! 4 Riverpyre Verge 4 Artist’s Talent 4 Steam Vents 4 Spirebluff Canal 1 Soul-Guide Lantern 1 Flashfreeze 1 Annul 1 Slagstorm 1 Torpor Orb 2 Sear 2 Ral, Crackling Wit 2 Quantum Riddler 2 Soul-Guide Lantern 1 Spell Pierce 1 Negate 1 Broadside Barrage

Francisco Sánchez has been a familiar face in the competitive scene for years, and his prominence has only grown with recent events. Sánchez has appeared in two Magic Online Champions Showcase events, then turned his digital success into a finalist finish at Pro Tour Edge of Eternities. His consistency and skill made him one of the top contenders for 2025’s Player of the Year title, and his performance this weekend shows he’s not slowing down. To Sánchez, the next step is obvious: win Pro Tour Lorwyn Eclipsed.

Cyprien Tron

4 Aang, Swift Savior 4 Interdimensional Web Watch 4 Starting Town 4 Temple Garden 3 Floodfarm Verge 3 Hallowed Fountain 4 Llanowar Elves 1 Seam Rip 4 Badgermole Cub 4 Aang, at the Crossroads 4 Breeding Pool 4 Bramble Familiar 1 Cavern of Souls 3 Airbender Ascension 4 Hushwood Verge 4 Doc Aurlock, Grizzled Genius 1 Plains 4 Appa, Steadfast Guardian 1 Cathar Commando 1 Get Lost 3 Seam Rip 1 Aven Interrupter 1 Oko, Lorwyn Liege 1 Kutzil’s Flanker 1 Wistfulness 1 Cavern of Souls 1 Spider-Sense 2 Avatar’s Wrath 2 Rest in Peace

Cyprien’s previous successes at Mythic Invitational 2020 and Arena Championship 9 established his skills, and those skills have earned him his ticket to Sunday’s showdown. Pro Tour Edge of Eternities was Cyprien Tron’s first tabletop Pro Tour, and his 11-5 record put him just shy of a Top 8 appearance. He’s practiced for this Pro Tour with some of Magic‘s best, and he’s proven his worth among them with his performance at Pro Tour Lorwyn Eclipsed.
