The Commander Decks have revealed a ton of new cards in a similar vein that have great mechanical nods to their respective gamessome of my favorites include Zack Fair in FFVII s, which lets you essentially replicate Cloud swiping Zacks identity after his death, or Champions from Beyond in FFXIV s, a very nifty nod to the MMORPGs party finder mechanic (and one of the coolest moments in its expansion Shadowbringers )

While the idea of piling up cards and calculating creature stats sounds tricky, Im sure well all quickly assess the possibilities of the mechanic once we see it in action

The card draw, the sacrifice, the tokens, whats not to love
