Silvery Gold, Level-Headedness, and Heat Culture- Jackson Johnson For our first people focused episode of the new series, we had the pleasure of speaking with Jackson Johnson. Fresh off the back of winning his first national title with Texas Hill Country Heat, Jackson tells us about his quidditch career in which he has become one of the best beaters in the game. From Texas State, to Lone Star, to Austin Outlaws in MLQ and the US National Team, Jackson has worked his way up through the ranks, achieving a lot (including 3 MLQ titles and a World Cup) while also dealing with disappointment along the way with 4 silver medals at US Nationals. Jackson gives us an insight into the way he plays the game as well as his thoughts on his career so far, notably the recent championship win with Heat.

As was discussed in the draft coverage, seeker wasn't a straightforward selection to make as there have been numerous talented seekers throughout history but very few who have consistently caught snitches to win games acros...

Hi everyone, Happy New Year and welcome to the first article of 2021!  I hope everyone is well during these difficult times. I intended for this to be released several months ago however, life got in the way so here we are. I wanted to write a piece to talk about  The Eighth Man 's Fantasy Fantasy All-Timer Tournament & Draft. A hypothetical fantasy quidditch tournament that took place  from April till July last year in which I was  participating as a General Manager (GM) . As a GM, my aim was to put together a roster of some of the best quidditch players of all time, battling it out against 7 other GMs in order to see who can create the best team. In this scenario, each GM drafts a roster of 14 players to play a tournament under MLQ (Major League Quidditch) and USQ (US Quidditch) rules, including the 4 max gender rule. You can draft any player who has ever played competitive quidditch in any country and select them in their prime (allowing retired and injured...
