Even if they have lots of cards in their hand, they will have to use those cards as CP to cast anything, netting you some serious late game advantage. This leads to them having a slow turn late in the game, especially if we are in top deck mode, and it frees up a big turn for me where I don’t have to worry as much about combat tricks. The most fun (and useful) this card has been is when I play it to freeze all of my opponent’s backups.

This card is very fun to play with, as are most of the cards that give you multiple options to choose from. Some of my other favourite Tidus targets are: Eiko (3-127R), Merlwyb (2-137H), Irvine (2-001H), Black Waltz 2 (3-015R). That is that you are gaining a virtual or actual CP advantage by the play you are making. The plays may look flashy, but always make sure you are being CP efficient. If I can make one suggestion with this card, it is to not get overzealous with your bouncing, and not to bounce too early. It is also worth mentioning that Tidus can bounce any friendly character, whereas Rikku could only bounce backups (although up to 5!). Tidus being above curve for a 4 drop at 9k power makes playing him worth not directly interacting with your opponent’s board or hand. If you look at the old Rikku (1-090R) from Opus 1, she could also return back ups to your hand. Tidus can be played when you have 5 backups, which is when you can usually afford to lose some of your CP production.Įven before Tidus, we have had forwards that can return backups. Miounne can bounce a back up to be replayed, and you even get to draw a card, but she takes up a slot on your backup line. The key difference between these two cards is that Tidus is a forward. In the past we have had cards printed that can do similar things with their abilities, take a look at Miounne (5-067R) for example. He is also great for bouncing a sage (2-005C) that can be replayed to give him haste. My favourite way to play this golden god is to replay the new Lulu or the legendary Vivi. Depending on the situation you replay those backups or just toss them for CP. My main use for him has been clearing backup space in decks that use a lot of permanent backups. I just picked up the Shadowbringers starter set (from a third party on Amazon) and the cards are so cool.This guy has been boatloads of fun to play with. I’ve been interested in learning and playing the Final Fantasy TCG since I got promo cards with Dissidia NT, but it was kind of obscure stateside and then Covid hit, which has devastated LGS’s - the only LGS near me identified with Square Enix’s official store finder went out of business, and no other stores seem to carry the cards or merch (Charlotte NC).ĭespite this, there seems to be a fairly tenacious following based on their event calendar in Asia and, according to Reddit, in the UK and NZ, and they have releases announced and planned out well into late next year, so it seems like Square-Enix isn’t going to kill it off just yet.Īre we anticipating there to be a card game revival in a post-Covid world, or is this game’s best chance of survival an MTGA variant and relying on collectors for the foreseeable future? I used to have a lot of fun with MTG but playing FF would be The Dream.
