Despite a delay when a national day of mourning forced the second day of competition to be postponed, the 2010 China National Championship has concluded! Lu Chao is the winner of the event, with a throwback to a Boros aggro strategy playing ZERO new cards from Magic 2011.

Chao will be joined on the team by some big names in the world of Chinese Magic. Zhang Zhiyang, a defending team world champion as part of the 2009 China team that won the world title, will be back after making it all the way to the Finals before being felled by Chao. Lei Qiang, who made the Top 8 at Nationals last year, will also join the team after winning the playoff against Lu Jia Chong.
