Final Fantasy MTG Cards Break Preorder Records Before June 13 Launch

While some veteran Magic: The Gathering players may question the rising prominence of Universes Beyond in the game’s release calendar, its ability to draw new attention to the brand is undeniable.

The new Final Fantasy set has surpassed all previous preorder sales, and it doesn’t hit shelves until this weekend (June 13). A Secret Lair set, dropping June 9, adds another layer of excitement.

If you grabbed a prerelease box at your local shop last weekend or have boosters on the way, you’re likely curious about which cards are in high demand—whether you’re looking to trade or just revel in owning the set’s hottest picks.

Here’s a detailed look at the top-selling Final Fantasy cards based on preorder data from TCGPlayer.

With a flair for dealing up to 9,999 extra damage, this card’s a standout. I snagged one last weekend, and it’s currently priced between $7.50 and $8, with players eager to unleash its massive damage potential.

9: Summon: Primal Odin

Summons are a cornerstone of the Final Fantasy set, functioning as Sagas.

Primal Odin’s second step can eliminate a player outright, making it a devastating force in Commander games. Best of all, it’s under $2.

8: The Darkness Crystal

Priced around $5, this card lowers Black spell costs and grants life as creatures fall. Its ability to revive exiled creatures makes it a tempting addition for my zombie deck in progress.

7: Cecil, Dark Knight

This dual-sided card boasts Deathtouch but damages its owner before transforming into Redeemed Paladin, granting lifelink and making allies indestructible. All for just one black mana and about $2.99.

6: Self-Destruct

Perfect for wiping out enemy creatures or players at Instant speed, Self-Destruct shines with Screaming Nemesis against lifelink decks. It’s a steal at under 50 cents.

5: Fire Magic

Featuring Vivi in its art, this card leverages the new Tiered mechanic to deal escalating damage to all creatures. At under 50 cents, it’s a must-have for countering big board states in Commander.

4: Starting Town

Play this early to jumpstart your board, especially in multicolored decks. It’s pricey, though—$14 for the standard version or nearly $17 for the foil.

3: Tifa Lockhart

Distinct from the Final Fantasy 7 Commander Deck version, this Tifa doubles her power with a Landfall trigger and Trample. Pair her with Titanic Growth and Fabled Passage for massive damage. She’s priced between $7 and $9.

2: Sazh’s Chocobo

This charming card grows fast with a Landfall trigger similar to Tifa’s. I pulled a couple in my packs, and at under $2, it’s a budget-friendly powerhouse.

A land that grants life and enters untapped? It’s a dream. Priced at 50 cents for foil or under 30 cents for non-foil, it’s a steal.
