Magic: The Gathering Arena Final Fantasy is a video game

Magic: The Gathering Arena is a video game released in 2018 that still gets supported to this day. We are around three weeks away from the Final Fantasy set releasing on it. New cards got previewed this past week and I'm gonna post them now.

Final Fantasy I only has this new card to add to its collection. Final Fantasy II doesn't have any new cards. It's in the exact same place it was a week ago.

SEPHIROTH

why you post them?

Final Fantasy III only got this one new card that doesn't even feel like it represents it. Grim! IV also has no new cards. II, III and IV seem to be the ones that are getting ignored the hardest, at least for now.

VI gets quite a bit of love as well, as is to be expected.

Was never a cardfag but I might start collecting all the FFIV and FFVI cards. Love all the new art.

Al Bhed

Human

Utter woke nonsense

Now where's the Wakka card that is at least 3 powered?

Nothing new from XI. I was suspicious of how many cards it got early. Meanwhile, XII gets a few but it still feels like way too little.

you aren't talking about mtg arena though, you are talking about mtg set
you can go talk about it in
and find numerous enthusiastic people to discuss it with

As someone that has never played it nor has any interest in it, it does sadden me how much of this set is being spent on 14. Just an endless cavalcade of cards from this game. It's easily the most represented game. A MTG Set in Arena is the same as a MTG Set in paper magic. Arena is gonna have the set be draftable and sealed, and in fact it releases on Arena before it releases on paper.

He's posting official vidya art mate, that is on topic.

Anon Babble is for the discussion of video games, not video game art attached to a physical card game
you are attempting to instigate a flame war, which is also against the rules

Damn those are nice tricks.

You're not ralking about video games on this board, you are talking about anime wives. You should do that at the local vorgin convention.

And finally, XVI.

It doesn't get a lot of cards. But everything it gets is pretty flashy.

There are approximately 156 cards left to be revealed. I am definitely expecting Auron.

SOVL

instant ramen has flash (lets you play it any time you could play an instant)

Ok, I chuckled

Why does that Ultima card have the UB logo instead of the FF set logo?

The Darkness Crystal looks busted. This shit is playable in Standard?

It's a promo art from "Standard Showdown", whatever that is. They haven't shown the normal art yet.

It's legal in Standard, if that's what you mean. I don't know if it's playable kek

cup noodle

lmao is this xv's legacy?

there's about 50 other threads more worthy of belligerently announcing your report in

4 mana do nothing in a format that is getting raped by red aggro decks
It's cool but the format is too fast for it, especially with the very long rotation
I hope I get to draft a Black Crystal albeit

that little tiny sephiroth on the bottom honestly fucks with the composition

I did not announce a report, but you are now trying to instigate a flame war, which is definitely against the rules.

Other posters breaking the rules is not an excuse to also break the rules.

Every single V card is soulful so far

Surprised by how poorly FFIII is represented so far. Nothing really uniquely FFIII so far besides darkness crystal.

Kefka

It's just a Nicol Bolas card

I just realized how the flashback cards are literally portraying flashbacks. Neat.

I hope they actually made some cards with the more obscure things in ffv like the chicken knife, pianos, all those monsters in exdeath's final dungeon and maybe even omega
would be cool to see mime and freelancer too

Wish triple triad was playable, because it is cool as hell. Will probably still try brewing jank with it.

That suplex

This is literally the opposite of how it should work.

Part of what makes MTG fun is when cards interact in cool somehow out there ways with each other. For example, you could be playing a game where you're facing Dragonlord Dromoka. You use Mu Yanling's ability to take flying away from it. Then, you cast Defenestrate.

You just constrained the wings of a dragon so that you could throw it out of a window and it dies as a result.

THAT'S the MTG equivalent of when Sabin suplexed the train.

Instead, the card goes explicitly goes "lol you can deal damage or exile the train xD"

Shit design

Omega really should be in, he's pretty iconic. Mime could be a really cool card with something like "This creature has all activated abilities of all cards on the battlefield'.

Hoping they give the other 4 party members a card too, but it seems like they aren't doing that for every game.

Knights of the Round is one of the timmiest white cards I have ever seen.

How would you design Suplex?

I ain't telling you for free.

Frogposter

Nothing to contribute

Sasuga.

Well, yeah, it's a set of 300 cards that has to have FF character representation from 16 different games.
Now imagine if they had the spin-offs in as well.

Ultima's power is literally to turn lands into wastes

I kneel

Friendly reminder the LOTR blacks were cause of the Tolkien estate

Not him but

Suplex 1W
Suplex deals 6 damage to target creature that is blocking or being blocked by one creature

I was thinking
Suplex W
This card costs W less to cast if it targets a Monk
Target Blocking creature takes no damage this combat

Altima, the High Seraph 8BW
Altima costs 1 less to cast for each creature you sacrifice while casting it.
When Altima enters the battlefield, destroy all creatures opponents control with power 3 or less
Haste, Flying
5/5

Altima.png - 360x573, 209.77K

All that work for a 5/5

All of these cards are releasing on modo and arena.

Literally just make it an instant that does the same damage as the trains toughness, and don't have the train buff itself.

deal 3 damage to creature, exile. If target is a type other than creature, it deals x more damage.

Or even

if target is a type other than creature, exile it

Yeah, that's a bit too referencey

Final Fantasy XIV is the only reason why the franchise isn't a relic of the past now.

if target is a type other than creature, exile it

Say goodbye to your land, bitch boy

Sabin suplexing a Swamp

based

It has to be a creature to be targeted, that was a clause which causes creatures that has another type, planeswalker, land, artifact, enchantment, battle, tribal.
So it would exile the train due to it being an artifact, but also would answer overlords when they come online.
Manlands getting hit is fine.

*Spoils the game in you're path*

Game is as old as me, bro

But he's so small and cute look at him abou to do his first genocide

I finished this game and I had to stare at the card for a minute to figure out what you even meant with that. No one who doesn't know much about the game is gonna get spoiled by that.

Final Fantasy X is 24 years old
By comparison, when Final Fantasy X released, Final Fantasy I was 14 years old.

Safer Sephiroth with 2 arms

Wait until you notice the knee

Yeah, and that’s half the reason people are malding. Old heads want this stuff in paper where it belongs, meanwhile Wizards is busy shoving everything onto Arena like it's the golden path forward. MODO scrapes by on the backs of grinders, and Arena just wants to sell you another $50 pack with sparkly alt art Cloud cards.

It would be unplayable if it were an 8/8.

You're 38? Only 2 more years and you're the big 40. What have you achieved with your life Anon?

Huh?
I'm not even 30 yet but I don't plan on "accomplishing" anything with my life. We all end up in the same place in the end.

Flash

heh

This card is a fucking disappointment compared to what it's based on

Others noticed, asked Nomura, and he said "That's spoilers for remake 3"

Those philistine won't understand.
