Relive the excitement of the 2002 World Championships with these four commemorative decks.
Carlos Romão, World Champion — Romão's blue-black "Psychatog" deck was the defining deck of he tournament. A control deck of heart, with lots of card drawing and countermagic, it wants to stall an opponent until it can play a devastating Upheaval and Psychatog on the same turn.
Sim Han How, Quarterfinalist — Han How's blue-green-red "Squirrel Opposition" deck can be aggressive with cards like Wild Mongrel and Flametongue Kavu, or it can play the stalling game with a Squirrel Nest-Opposition combo. Beware the Roar of the Wurms in the sideboard!
Brian Kibler, Eleventh Place — Kibler's green-white-red "Red Zone 2K2" deck loves to put creatures into the "red zone"; that is, attack with them! This aggressive deck can put over thirty creatures on the board. And with Glory in the graveyard, few defenses can prevail against their onslaught.
Raphael Levy, Sixteenth Place — Levy's blue-green "Le Wonder Goose" deck features a ton of small green creatures like Nimble Mongoose and Wearbear. With Careful Study and Mental Note to get to threshhold, however, those small creatures quickly turn into real monsters!

(World Champion)
Carlos Romão played the same style of deck that many people at this year's World Championships chose to play: blue-black Psychatog. He simply played his version better than everyone else played theirs. Romão, known as "Jaba" to his friends, was a perfect 6-0 during the Swiss portion of the tournament, posting a stunning 12-0 game record. This twenty-year-old native of São Paulo, Brazil, has been widely regarded as one of the best players in South America. His deck tried to stay alive long enough to play Upheaval, while floating mana to replay Psychatog on the same turn.

(Quarterfinalist)
Malaysian National Champion Sim Han How raised some eyebrows by posting a 6-0 record with his blue-green-red "Squirrel Oposition" deck. This deck tried to get out lots of Squirrel tokens with Squirrel Nest before using Opposition to tie up the opponent's creatures and mana. Han How won quite a few games using some tricky sideboarding, such as pulling out his enchantments and bringing in more beatdown cards like Flametongue Kavu and Roar of the Wurm. Besides being a top Magic® player, Han How is also a student at Bandar Utama College in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

(Sixteenth Place)
A native of Toulouse, France, Raphael Levy posted an impressive 5-1 record during the Standard portion of this year's Worlds playing a blue-green deck he named "Le Wonder Goose". This deck used lots of small creatures — like Nimble Mongoose and Wearbear — that get bigger at threshold. The deck used blue not for countermagic, but for cards like Careful Study and Mental Note, which help the deck reach threshold more quickly, and for Wonder in the graveyard, which allows the decks pumped-up threshold creatures to fly.
