Final Fantasy low key the goat draft format

The LLU Spider-Man State of the Format Address is here! It might be short lived, but I'm enjoyed the format for what it offers. Come check out my thoughts on what's going on! www.youtube.com/watch?v=24Rd... limitedlevelups.libsyn.com/limited-leve...

PSA: These three cards don't have a "you may" or "an opponent controls" clause. Betty is *very* generous and will give a counter to your opponent's creatures if you have none, and the other two will target your own creatures if your opponent has none.

I'll be maintaining the @chordocalls.bsky.social tierlist for OM1/SPM! Perhaps not quite as frequent updates as with the last couple due to the small nature of the set, but should be at least weekly: www.17lands.com/tier_list/4f...

The Spider-Man set review is now is up! limitedlevelups.libsyn.com/spider-manom... www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_CI...

Big PSA on this! Was under the impression that pick-two was going to be the only way to draft the set on arena. Really good move imo

Pick-Two Draft is coming, but is it good? Fun? Interesting? Just posted a vid with my thoughts on the format + how it changes draft strategy! youtu.be/I4zgrF_hi4g?...

The @NEO_MTG + Alex Spider-Man set review will be streamed this Monday at 5 ET and posted everywhere you find my content after! I also just posted a first impressions video on the set that you can find below (spoiler alert, this set is uhhhhh interesting) youtu.be/KBoUWGzFWGQ

Some cursory thoughts on Spiderman/Through the Omenpaths for limited: - The arena reskin was done well, cool art/nice to check in on a few different planes - Two pick draft has precedence of being fun/functional (battlebond) - Still quite worried about the set being so small 1/3

Limited Level-Ups #212 Final Fantasy State of the Format Address is here! A CHUNKY state of the format address this time around! FF has proven to be a really deep format with lots to talk about. limitedlevelups.libsyn.com/limited-leve... www.youtube.com/watch?v=JE8B...

This card is a banger, one of the best commons in the set. Even if it’s just edict + some material to sac/chump with its good, better if you can get some mileage out of the pinging

A microcosm of the limited level-ups discord

Final fantasy PSA: the templating on this card makes it pretty easy to misread. The power/toughness change happens right away, it doesn’t set a new P/T when the creature comes back

Final fantasy limited tierlist for those interested! Thanks again to Marc for this 🥳

PSA: you don’t have to discard a card to glacial dragonhunt if you don’t want to! I’ve seen a lot of people discard a land to it when there’s virtually no reason to. Sweet design btw

2-0-split the finals with a buuuuusted sealed deck! The seed pack really supercharges things. Chose Mardu as my clan. Every time I cast Jeskai revelation, still would have won if you chopped off a sentence or two

Super appreciate Marc for doing this! Our takes often end up being very similar as formats progress
