I'd like to also thank this other Squall fan for setting me down this path all those months ago. She's my inspiration! ❤️

To commemorate Squall Leonhart's birthday today (August 23), I've decided to share some my most prized possessions with the world for the first time: a Lion Heart itabag, and Squall Dissidia plushie ❤️❤️❤️

I owned two of the cards, the rest was either purchased or donated by amazing Magic folks ✨️

I don't really care about Spiderman's time in Magic honestly, but homg the Saga alternate art is really genius! 10/10

A new #MTGxSpiderman Saga was revealed at Mark Rosewater's #SDCC Blogatog Live panel, yesterday!

An image showing the new #MTGxSpiderMan saga card, Kraven's Last Hunt.

I got the Palico (calico) head in #MonsterHunterWilds. I think I did a good job with fashion hunting.

Next we're trying to imagine what a For Those Who Come After card would look like and this is what we came up with.

Aaaand once again I'm crying reading the flavour text :')

And then me and my brother came up with this idea next! We wanted to try to capture the monolith mechanic and I think this is as close as we can get it.

Last night I made a fan #Expedition33 #MagicTheGathering card! With lightnight fast set icon to go with it (not happy with it, will revise) But for now I'm happy with the concept of this card.

Aaaand now I want to create a whole fan Commander deck based on this wonderful game 🙌

I have been reading the Edge of Eternities story (finally!) and it RIPS.

Y'all, if you're not reading this, you're sleeping on it. It's great.
(Yes, there are a lot of proper nouns. Give it a chance, you'll understand everything by the end)

Are you a Magic player who doesn’t “get” all these #MTGxFinalFantasy cards?
Who are these people?
What’s a Tonberry?

Finally got Gemma's outfit... :) #MonsterHunterWilds

I think my Squall Leonhart shrine needs more Lion Heart. What do you think?

Fighting Tempered Seregios just makes me want to start on a healer build 😭 #MonsterHunterWilds

Duckslexic plays games 🎮 @duckslexic.bsky.social · Jul 2

I finally fought Lagiacrus in #MonsterHunterWilds! The normal Lagia is really fun to fight, and the underwater section is so cool! I even got to trigger the special underwater cutscene, even in party.

But Tempered Lagiacrus is SO DANG WILD. It was like trying to tame a feral lightning devilspawn 😂

The husband found a 17th century historical example of Jill's sword of #FinalFantasyXVI and now I want one 🥲

(does this mean I need to learn rapier techniques next?)

In my #MtGxFinalFantasy head-canon, 20 years post-FFVIII, Commander Squall Leonhart traded in his Lion Heart gunblade for a far more superior weapon: An Ion Cannon.

(I got hit in the face with this combo multiple times in a game and I have not emotionally recovered yet)

AND THEN, I activated Ninja Blade's second ability: I drew a card, and I threw down Knights of the Round to ping my opponent for 8 💀

DISGOOSTING. I LOVE IT.

I've always loved Beatrix of #FinalFantasyIX and I'm so damn happy that #MtGxFinalFantasy gave her the mechanics she DESERVES!😭 Scene: EDH, she's on the battlefield, and in one turn she had equipped 3 different equipment WITHOUT COST and—

She ended up being 11/11 + can't be blocked except by Walls

The most badass Y'shtola art ever made 😭💕 I wanna play Shadowbringers again.

- Y'shtola, Night's Blessed - Final Fantasy XIV x MTG
One of the best things to arrive in my inbox : a commission to paint Y’shtola. I loved each minute of the process.
Thank you AD Stephanie Cheung. <3

So far I've played both the FF7 and FF14 deck and I'm not smart enough to play a spellslinger deck that the FF14 deck is built as 😂 but the FF7 deck is more up my alley—equip and swing.

Too bad I'm gonna break up the FF7 deck to feed my Orzhov Squall Voltron deck 🥲 wish I had an extra copy...

Duckslexic plays games 🎮 @duckslexic.bsky.social · Jun 27

I still find it surreal that I managed to get my hands on #MtGxFinalFantasy precons 😭 where I live, LCGs got screwed over by the distribution system and only got a few boxes per store, so they're incredibly scarce here. And not because of scalpers. Which is hilarious now that I think about it.

Duckslexic plays games 🎮 @duckslexic.bsky.social · Jun 27

I just saw the #MonsterHunterWilds June title update presentation and not only are we getting Lagiacrus back, we're also getting a whole underwater section with him??? I heard it's just simple interactions and not a full fight like last time??? I NEED TO KNOW 😫

"The Wandering Minstrel travels from town to town, singing vivid songs of the fabled Summons to anyone who would listen."

And I'm going to find ways to throw in Chocobos because that's his mode of transport.

Basically, this might be a bird and Summons deck. Either way, I'M INSPIRED ✨

Duckslexic plays games 🎮 @duckslexic.bsky.social · Jun 15

So I'm supposed to go to sleep because I have work tomorrow, but I'm suddenly struck with a new idea for a #MtGxFinalFantasy EDH deck.

"The Wandering Minstrel and his tales of Summons."

Featuring every single Town, and every single Summon from the set.

Duckslexic plays games 🎮 @duckslexic.bsky.social · Jun 11

Omg I have alternate art Hope and I couldn't for the life of me know how to begin building a deck around him! (Habitual red player here aha)

I'm so happy for you that it's worked out! Gratz on your wins ✨️ what's your fav card to pair with him so far, if you have any?
