I will once again go on record to say it's dumb that blood moon even works as printed. If you make my creature a zombie it doesn't lose first strike. Why would making my land a mountain fuck it up so bad

I think a final fantasy set done properly should communicate the joy & discovery of playing those games. But every card just feels like this, some hyper-specific reference, an inside joke impossible to get unless you're already on the inside of it. Completely inaccessible as a standalone piece.

The final fantasy set may be cool for big FF fans but as a magic player I am STRUGGLING to find anything to talk about with this set. Just feels a mess aesthetically and structurally and every card feels like a rehash of a card that already exists

People have asked me for a sideboard guide, so here is ~20 minutes worth of effort towards that. In the grindier matchups especially I do a good bit of adjusting based on what my opponent is doing. My biggest piece of advice is you should play as many games as you can before the tournament.
1 Forest
1 Dryad Arbor
4 Gilded Goose
2 Marsh Flats
2 Temple Garden
1 Underground Mortuary
4 Windswept Heath
4 Chord of Calling
4 Cauldron Familiar
2 Overgrown Tomb
1 Sylvan Safekeeper
4 Green Sun's Zenith
4 Birthing Ritual
1 Collector Ouphe
4 Samwise Gamgee
4 Verdant Catacombs
2 Boseiju, Who Endures
1 Enduring Innocence
1 Insidious Fungus
4 Orcish Bowmasters
1 Varolz, the Scar-Striped
1 Lush Portico
1 Blooming Marsh
4 Carrion Feeder
1 Godless Shrine
1 Grist, the Hunger Tide

1 Drannith Magistrate
2 Prismatic Ending
2 Force of Vigor
1 Crystal Barricade
4 Thoughtseize
1 Suncleanser
1 Endurance
2 Enduring Innocence
1 Grist, the Hunger Tide

Breach: -1 sheep, -1 grist, -4 bowmaster, -1 feeder, -1 varolz, +3 thoughtseize, +2 force of vigor, +1 drannith magistrate, +1 crystal barricade, +1 endurance
Eldrazi: -1 sheep, -1 grist, -4 bowmasters, +4 thoughtseize, +1 crystal barricade, +1 force of vigor (maybe this should stay the grist)
BW: -1 valrolz, -1 sam, -1 ouphe, -1 fungus, -1 feeder, -1 GSZ, -1 bowmaster, +4 thoughtseize, +1 grist, +2 sheep (if they have a bunch of wraths maybe you want suncleanser but probably not)
RW: -2 feeder, -1 ouphe, -1 grist, -1 GSZ +2 prismatic ending, +1 endurance, +1 crystal barricade, +1 force of vigor
Frog: -2 feeder, -1 ouphe, -1 fungus, -1 boseiju, -1 sam, -1 GSZ, +4 thoughtseize, +1 grist, +2 sheep (if they have hard gy hate like leyline leave in fungus and cut a bowmaster)
Amulet: -1 ouphe, -4 bowmaster, -1 sheep, -1 grist, +4 thoughtseize, +2 force of vigor, +1 crystal barricade
Storm: -1 ouphe, -4 bowmaster, -1 grist, -1 sheep, +4 thoughtseize, +1 crystal barricade, +1 drannith magistrate, +1 endurance
Belcher: -4 bowmaster, -1 sheep, -1 grist, +4 thoughtseize, +1 drannith magistrate, +1 force of vigor

I guess it's not technically illegal to put the entire power budget of fifteen years worth of orzhov cards into a single indestructible card advantage engine but, like, I probably wouldn't have done it that way
