Magic: The Gathering x Final Fantasy introduced players to Balthier and Fran, two characters from Playstation 2's Final Fantasy XII. In the video game, Balthier and Fran are sky pirates that pilot a flying airship named the Strahl. It is fitting that Balthier and Fran's card design synergizes with Vehicles and grants them several buffs. The opportunity to receive an additional combat step is a nice touch.
In my latest EDHREC article, Balthier and Fran Deck Tech, I discuss Balthier and Fran's potential as a Vehicles-centric commander. Recent MTG sets have added a number of playable red and green vehicles to the game that synergize well with Balthier and Fran. You can take a test drive with Balthier and Fran and see how they handle roadblocks created by your opponents on the road to victory. Magic: The Gathering x Final Fantasy is finally here! Many Characters from across Final Fantasy's vast game library are found in the set. Among them is Cloud Strife, the blond-haired protagonist in Final Fantasy VII. Cloud is depicted on several cards, including Cloud, Midgar Mercenary. This Mythic Rare is an impressive legendary creature with Equipment synergies. In fact, Cloud, Midgar Mercenary's abilities make it an appealing mono-white commander choice for Equipment-centric decks.
In my recent EDHREC article, Cloud Midgar Mercenary Deck Tech, I discuss Cloud's potential as a Voltron commander. There are potent Equipment cards capable of making Cloud deal 21 commander damage, even in a single blow. If you are a fan of aggressive or mono-color decks, you shouldn't skip over this article. |
