Why MTG Final Fantasy was so popular
Final Fantasy has one of the biggest fanbases in gaming, and MTG Final Fantasy gave every era of the series a place in one set. Fans of the classic games got Terra, Celes and Garland, while fans of the later games got Cloud, Tifa, Tidus, Yuna and the Final Fantasy XIV heroes. The Through the Ages reprints also made the set exciting for Commander players, since they turn powerful staples into Final Fantasy cards.
The result was a set that appealed to Magic players and Final Fantasy fans alike.
