fran mtg final fantasy Magic The Gathering - Universes Beyond - after this phase Balthier and Fran | FINAL

Absolutely still a great card but not one that is able to do what you want it to quite as often as you would like

She's in 3,695 as a Commander, so more than Rhys despite being just one color, and then in 48,521 of decks overall, so that's 4% of Green decks

For 5 mana you get those two creatures and a blood token, and thats a pretty reasonable rate, especially because youre paying it in two installments, and can pay the larger part at instant speed

Sephiroth, Kefka, and even The Wandering Minstrel are all iconic and more than deserving of a powerful card

Whether the return of Wastes to Standard in MTG Final Fantasy was a signpost leading up to such a deck remains to be seen
