After indulging in all kinds of gaming innuendos over the years, he was lured into the idea of judging by Prillaman&#8217;s voice on MtgCast, deciding \u200bto give back to the community and shape up his karma. He takes particular pleasure in providing cynical life advice and teaching zen judging techniques to novice judges.<\/p>\n<p><br style=\"clear: both; height: 1px; margin: -1px 0pt 0pt; overflow: hidden;\"><br \/>\nElias received 3 nominations in Wave 4, let&#8217;s have a look at them.<\/p>\n<p><span class='judge-tooltip'><a href='https:\/\/apps.magicjudges.org\/judges\/dci\/69317611' >Giorgos Magganiotis<\/a><span class='avatar'><img width='200' height='200' src='https:\/\/apps.magicjudges.org\/dci\/avatar?dci=69317611&size=200'><\/span><\/span> had this to say about Elias:<br \/>\n[cets_callout_box style=&#8217;gray&#8217; align=&#8217;full&#8217; title=&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>&#8220;Elias thank you for looking always after me and help me with any of my concerns.
