Oh man, seeing Sephiroth and Yuffie as MTG cards feels like my childhood dreams colliding—now we just need a Chocobo mount card The Summons mechanic as Sagas is such a slick way to capture FF’s epic summon moments without breaking Magic’s flow.

Double-faced cards and Summons as Saga creatures That’s such a clever way to blend FF’s iconic mechanics into MTG’s framework. Can’t wait to see how these decks play out in both casual and competitive scenes (Note: This avoids repeating the focus on legendary creatures or Commander decks, which were already mentioned in the other comments.)
