The Finisher

Jason Chan, better known on the Twitches and Twitters as "Amaz," earned his first career Magic: The Gathering top 8 at Grand Prix Mexico City last week. The ludicrously popular Hearthstone streamer showed why he's one of the world's finest minds in competitive card games, and that his Pro Tour and Silver Showcase invites were no fluke. So with Amaz joining the ranks of Stan Cifka, Brian Kibler of Brian Kibler Gaming, and Kenny from South Park with a big Magic finish, who's the next livestreaming celebrity you expect to make it to the knockout rounds?
