Daniel P. Cross is BaseMTG's senior fact-check editor and a certified Magic Judge. With deep knowledge of card rulings across formats, official Wizards of the Coast announcements, and the Standard and Commander competitive metas, Daniel reviews content to ensure accuracy on card interactions, release information, price data, and tournament results. His rigorous review process catches errors before publication — whether that's a misquoted ruling, a wrong set release date, or a deck guide built on an interaction that doesn't actually work as described. Daniel also advises on editorial standards for AI-assisted content, ensuring every article meets the same accuracy bar as hand-verified pieces.
