Yesterday, we covered <a href="https://edhrec.com/articles/edge-of-eternities-two-new-commander-formats-announced/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Commander Box League</a>, an event that Wizards of the Coast is spearheading for Edge of Eternities. Many players seem to find some issues with it.
Because it's a sanctioned event format, there's not a lot that players can do to change the policies of this event series. However, with this article, I'd like to introduce a way to augment your next Sealed Box league for Commander play that may revolutionize the way you play it.
<h2>Background</h2>
For a few years, I've tried to make the Commander Boxing League work. I started my first foray into it with Zendikar Rising, and that ended rather poorly with no actual games conducted. The idea simply petered out amongst my playgroup.
The next booster Commander Boxing League saw me with a booster box of Bloomburrow. This posed its own set of distinct issues despite games firing with more ease. My playgroup had great commanders but not necessarily the needed tools to make a deck work smoothly.
I mulled this idea over for the better part of a year, and, with Final Fantasy, finally got to enact a means to make a Commander Booster Box League fire on all cylinders for myself and two other eager playtesters.
Enter: The Booster Box Buffer Kit.
<h2>What Is the Booster Box Buffer Kit?</h2>
Simply put, this kit is a 70-strong singleton kit of cards that each player in your Commander Sealed Box event should have ready and open access to that augments one of the most major aspects of any Commander deck: mana smoothing. The kit contains 13 artifacts and 57 lands, in its current iteration.
Furthermore, these cards assist with mana production, fixing, land fetching, and even a little bit of card advantage.
Notably, all of the cards in the Buffer Kit are easy to fit in many single players' given budgets, at about $41 for the full kit. They're all geared towards generic usefulness in Commander and augment your experience for a much smoother game. In turn, this allows you to focus on putting more of your cool cards from your booster box proper into the deck.
<h2>Positives to the Buffer Kit</h2>
According to one player who playtested this with me during the Final Fantasy prerelease:
<blockquote>The supplemental material is very helpful at helping players feel like they can still play on curve even when their box cards aren’t “ready” to go in an opening hand. Having something to play every turn helps keep games competitive through midgame. The question is in picking the right dual lands or staples. Maybe some decks really want a <a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="City of Brass" href="#" target="_blank">City of Brass</a>-like card instead of <a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Command Tower" href="#" target="_blank">Command Tower</a>, for instance. It adds a selection mini-game to break up the initial overwhelming excitement for new, unplayed cards.</blockquote>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="City of Brass"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Command Tower"></div></div>
As my playtester points out, the potential for mutability from set to set is one positive aspect of this kit. What works in a lands-matter set like Zendikar Rising won't always work for a set like Edge of Eternities or Bloomburrow. As such, cards can be added or removed to shore up any glaring issues with a given set, be they mana fixing, land fetching, or pretty much any other general aspect of the Commander play experience.
Fortunately, my other playtester noted how smoothly the games we played went. Mana fixing was so easy to draw into. Because of this, we all had an easy experience getting to our needed land drops. In turn, this allowed us all to secure mana on time for our more impactful plays to be made in an even measure.
Furthermore, this kind of buffer to a booster box's Sealed pool enables players to more easily use their cards in a manner more befitting the actual rules of Commander. Singleton decks with 100 total cards are much easier to make with this kit. They'll also be able to adhere well to color identity rules as Commander as a format dictates.
<h2>Potential Shortcomings of the Buffer Kit</h2>
My other playtester for the Booster Box Buffer Kit praised it highly. That said, they pointed out one possible issue with it. Being a 70-card list, it may be a bit too much for the average player to amass four times over. Shortening the list may be a necessity for some playgroups.
However, my colleague also remarked that doing so may limit options too much. As such, adding or replacing options will almost always feel better than simply removing them.
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Azorius Chancery"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Tranquil Cove"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Thriving Heath"></div></div>
To this end, I can agree with my colleague. If you want to cut some amount of cards from this list, I would advise you cut one to two full cycles of dual lands, such as the Ravnica Karoo cycle (<a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Azorius Chancery" href="#" target="_blank">Azorius Chancery</a> and friends) the lifegain duals (<a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Tranquil Cove" href="#" target="_blank">Tranquil Cove</a>, etc.), or the "Thriving" land cycle (<a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Thriving Heath" href="#" target="_blank">Thriving Heath</a>, etc.).
This in turn will cut down on some options while keeping similar options open, if you cut no more than two of these aforementioned cycles. Remember, your playgroup will want equal treatment here so you'll want three or four of each card in the Kit as you see fit to add them.
<h2>Buffer Kit List</h2>
This list focuses on my personal iteration of the Buffer Kit. Feel free to make your own additions and subtractions from it to enhance your experience.

<h2>The Future of the Buffer Kit</h2>
I'm sure I'll make adjustments to the experience. As sets come out and their themes are made more apparent, I may remove certain cards from the Kit list. Even so, I'll work to retain a majority of the core of this experience. Feel free to try this out at your next Sealed Commander Booster Box event!
And now, I'd really like to hear from the readership of this article. Do you think this idea will make Sealed Commander Box Leagues better for players? What do you think about the possibility of using this kit in the future? Finally, does it appeal to you more than the previously-announced Commander Box League, for example? Sound off below!

It's finally here! Many players can breathe easy at last, for their wait is over. The prerelease events for Final Fantasy begin this weekend, officially starting today, June 6th. What kind of format will this Prerelease entail? What goodies can you hope to gather from this sort of event? Read on, and we'll lay it out for you!
<h2>Final Fantasy Prerelease Format</h2>
First off, <a href="https://wpn.wizards.com/en/event/prerelease-magic-the-gathering-final-fantasy">the Prerelease events</a> for this set will almost unanimously be Final Fantasy Sealed. This is due to the widespread use of 6-pack Prerelease Kits. However, depending on your location or region, allocations may be a bit off; for that reason, you may be engaging in a different Limited format instead to meet demand. We can't say for sure whether your local game store will have you deviate from the norm, but if it's a Prerelease event, it will no doubt be Final Fantasy. And yes, you can use the Prerelease promo you get in your Kit.
Additionally, some stores do Prerelease in a slightly different way and offer 2-Headed Giant Sealed for at least one day of their events. These events are also tons of fun! In fact, we recently covered Archidekt's collaboration with Flyquest on a 2HG Sealed Final Fantasy event coming very soon, called Duel Land. <a href="https://edhrec.com/articles/archidekt-x-flyquest-to-host-celebrity-final-fantasy-prerelease-event-june-14-15">You can read up on that event here.</a>
<h2>Prerelease Goodies For The New Set</h2>
In addition to getting packs from playing and for doing well in this Prerelease event series, players who participate in a Prerelease event may secure themselves a crystalline 10-sided spindown die (while supplies last). Furthermore, if you participate in at least two of these events, you might bag yourself a velveteen dice pouch as well.
While we don't have an image of the dice pouch, this is what the spindown d10 looks like from two different angles (Image credit: Wizards of the Coast):

<h2>What's Next After Prerelease?</h2>
Starting right at the release date for Final Fantasy, local game stores are getting an event called "Chocobo Racing". <a href="https://edhrec.com/articles/final-fantasy-adds-chocobo-racing-to-magic-presents-events">We covered this event in detail a few weeks ago.</a> But, as a refresher:
<blockquote>
<blockquote>Chocobo Racing Events are the weekly Booster Draft and Sealed event based on the FINAL FANTASY VII mini-game "Chocobo Racing". Whenever players play Draft or Sealed events with Magic: The Gathering—FINAL FANTASY in your store, earning points to reach special rewards just for this event.</blockquote>
The site goes on to explain how this minigame works:
<blockquote>As players enjoy racing around the track throughout the season, they'll earn a set number of points that build toward rewards.
Award points for the following:
<ul>
<li>Players earn 3 points for each Draft of Sealed event (excluding Prerelease) they attend.</li>
<li>Players earn 1 point for each match they win in a qualifying event.</li>
<li>Existing players that bring in a new player who <a href="http://myaccounts.wizards.com/?utm_source=edhrec" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">signs up for a Wizards Account</a> and participates in a qualifying event earn 1 point.</li>
</ul>
When a player reaches 10 cumulative points, they earn a foil Chocobo art print. When a player reaches 20 cumulative points, they earn a Chocobo Pinfinity AR pin!</blockquote>
At the very end of the event, store owners are encouraged to give out any unallocated prints or pins to players who didn't make it to 10 or 20 points. WPN suggests stores give them out in order of highest standings at the end of the event's run.</blockquote>
And that about wraps up what you may need to know about the Final Fantasy Prerelease and Release events! Are you excited about this weekend? Sound off below!

Final Fantasy Prerelease Events Begin This Weekend

As of the Final Fantasy set's June 13th release, Wizards Play Network, the entity responsible for maintaining and managing organized Magic: The Gathering play, will introduce "Chocobo Racing" to the events for the set. This augmentation to Limited events will begin after the set officially releases and will last until July 24th.
<h2>But First: What Are Chocobos?</h2>
In the scope of the hit Square Enix video game series, Chocobos are fluffy (usually) yellow bipedal birds. People in the game's universe usually use Chocobos as mounts. They're generally a means to get places much faster than on foot. Occasionally, riders will race with their Chocobo steeds. Final Fantasy VII formally introduced the "<a href="https://finalfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Chocobo_racing_(minigame)" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chocobo Racing</a>" minigame proper. However, since then it's blown up in a big way. The minigame has even had its own <a href="https://finalfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Chocobo_Racing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">eponymous spin-off game</a> on the Sony PlayStation.
They're also generally viewed as the mascot/face of the series at large, much like the Slime is to Dragon Quest, or Pikachu is to Pokémon.
<h2>Final Fantasy Chocobo Racing In Magic</h2>
According to the Wizards Play Network's page on this event:
<blockquote>Chocobo Racing Events are the weekly Booster Draft and Sealed event based on the FINAL FANTASY VII mini-game "Chocobo Racing". Whenever players play Draft or Sealed events with Magic: The Gathering—FINAL FANTASY in your store, earning points to reach special rewards just for this event.</blockquote>
The site goes on to explain how this minigame works:
<blockquote>As players enjoy racing around the track throughout the season, they'll earn a set number of points that build toward rewards.
Award points for the following:
<ul>
<li>Players earn 3 points for each Draft of Sealed event (excluding Prerelease) they attend.</li>
<li>Players earn 1 point for each match they win in a qualifying event.</li>
<li>Existing players that bring in a new player who <a href="http://myaccounts.wizards.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">signs up for a Wizards Account</a> and participates in a qualifying event earn 1 point.</li>
</ul>
When a player reaches 10 cumulative points, they earn a foil Chocobo art print. When a player reaches 20 cumulative points, they earn a Chocobo Pinfinity AR pin!</blockquote>
At the very end of the event, store owners are encouraged to give out any unallocated prints or pins to players who didn't make it to 10 or 20 points. WPN suggests stores give them out in order of highest standings at the end of the event's run.
<h2>Run, Chocobo, Run!</h2>
<a href="https://wpn.wizards.com/en/event/chocobo-racing-event-series" target="_blank" rel="noopener">This mini-game series</a> runs from June 13th through July 24th at local game stores while supplies last.
And now, let's hear from you. Are you a fan of Chocobos as the mascot of Final Fantasy? Is this set an appealing prospect for you to play within? If you're planning to enter these events and vie for a print or pin, sound off below!

The release of Outsiders brought a needed rejuvenation of limited play to Flesh and Blood. Experienced TCG players will be familiar with the basic aspects of Sealed play, but Flesh and Blood offers several unique elements you’ll need to be familiar with to succeed.
<h2>Sealed Format</h2>
Limited play experiences remain some of the most popular in the TCG space. I know plenty of players who only come out to play their game of choice when a new set releases, so they can experience the joys of cracking packs and building a deck in a more equitable format.
Here’s what to expect at a Sealed event near you.
<img decoding="async" class="aligncenter" src="https://articles.fabrec.gg/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Outsiders-Sealed-Mat-1024x576.png" alt="Six packs of Outsiders on a Boulder Trap mat." />
First, you’ll receive six unopened booster packs. The tournament organizer will have all the players open their packs at a designated time. At this point, you’ll have a five-minute period to “open and observe” your cards. 
Note: Any needed token-rarity cards can be provided to you by the tournament organizers.
If you're at a higher-tier organized play event, you may be required to register your card pool — this is a simple enough process. You’ll swap card pools with the player on the opposite side of the table from you. Each player then records every card in their received collection. Registering your card pool also require players to decide which available hero they’ll play for the entirety of the event.
<h3>Deck Construction</h3>
In Sealed, the minimum required deck size is 30 cards (this does not include your young hero or equipment) — there is no maximum deck size.
As you sift through your six packs, sort them into piles based on each card’s class affiliation. For Outsiders, that means you’ll have the following piles:
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Assassin</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Ninja</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Ranger</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Assassin/Ninja</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Assassin/Ranger</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Generic</li>
</ul>
Most of the time, you’ll want to go with the class you have the most cards for. Outsiders is unique in Flesh and Blood in that there are two heroes from each class to choose from. Before making your hero selection, you’ll want to examine the pitch value spread of your pool.
For example, suppose you have more Ranger cards than any other class, but almost all your arrow attack action cards are blue. In that case, you may want to consider non-Ranger heroes — blue-pitch arrows have lower attack values than their red counterparts, so you may not be able to present enough damage over the course of the game to win.
<h3>Generic Card Pool</h3>
There are some fantastic generic cards to choose from in this set, like <a href="https://fabrec.gg/cards/humble-red">Humble</a>, <a href="https://fabrec.gg/cards/wreck-havoc-red">Wreck Havoc</a>, <a href="https://fabrec.gg/cards/cut-down-to-size-blue">Cut Down to Size</a>, <a href="https://fabrec.gg/cards/ravenous-rabble-yellow">Ravenous Rabble</a>, and <a href="https://fabrec.gg/cards/seek-horizon-blue">Seek Horizon</a>.
<a href="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Wreck-Havoc.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-97983" src="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Wreck-Havoc-215x300.jpg" alt="Wreck Havoc" width="215" height="300" srcset="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Wreck-Havoc-215x300.jpg 215w, https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Wreck-Havoc.jpg 546w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 215px) 100vw, 215px" /></a><a href="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Cut-Down-to-Size.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-97984" src="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Cut-Down-to-Size-215x300.jpg" alt="Cut Down to Size" width="215" height="300" srcset="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Cut-Down-to-Size-215x300.jpg 215w, https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Cut-Down-to-Size.jpg 546w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 215px) 100vw, 215px" /></a>
Some of the attacks offer devastating hit effects. Each of these attacks forces the opponent to block or face some nasty consequences. Cut Down to Size, in particular, is a must-block attack. However the opponent chooses to deal with it, they will be without at least one card for their offensive retaliation.
<a href="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Ravenous-Rabble.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-97982" src="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Ravenous-Rabble-215x300.jpg" alt="Ravenous Rabble" width="215" height="300" srcset="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Ravenous-Rabble-215x300.jpg 215w, https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Ravenous-Rabble.jpg 546w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 215px) 100vw, 215px" /></a><a href="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Seek-Horizon.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-97985" src="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Seek-Horizon-215x300.jpg" alt="Seek Horizon" width="215" height="300" srcset="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Seek-Horizon-215x300.jpg 215w, https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Seek-Horizon.jpg 546w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 215px) 100vw, 215px" /></a>
While other attacks offer opportunities to stretch out the combat chain and keep the opponent on their heels, the red-pitch versions of <a href="https://fabrec.gg/cards/ravenous-rabble-red">Ravenous Rabble</a> and <a href="https://fabrec.gg/cards/seek-horizon-red">Seek Horizon</a> are two consistent ways for any hero to have go again when attacking while pushing the break-point attack value of four.
<h2>How to Select an Outsiders Hero in Sealed</h2>
As I mentioned above, Outsiders features six young heroes for Limited play. Once you’ve established which class you’ll have the best chance of putting together 30 or more cards with, you’ll be faced with one more choice.
Let your card pool guide you. If you pull a piece of Legendary equipment or a high-powered card like red <a href="https://fabrec.gg/cards/death-touch-red">Death Touch</a>, your six packs may just take one decision off your hands.
<h3>Assassin</h3>
Selecting between <a href="https://fabrec.gg/hero/uzuri">Uzuri</a> or <a href="https://fabrec.gg/hero/arakni-solitary-confinement">Arakni, Solitary Confinement</a> comes down to the number and pitch value of your Assassin cards with the keyword Stealth.
<a href="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Uzuri.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-97993" src="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Uzuri-215x300.jpg" alt="Uzuri" width="215" height="300" srcset="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Uzuri-215x300.jpg 215w, https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Uzuri.jpg 546w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 215px) 100vw, 215px" /></a><a href="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Arakni-Solitary-Confinement.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-97989" src="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Arakni-Solitary-Confinement-215x300.jpg" alt="Arakni, Solitary Confinement" width="215" height="300" srcset="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Arakni-Solitary-Confinement-215x300.jpg 215w, https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Arakni-Solitary-Confinement.jpg 546w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 215px) 100vw, 215px" /></a>
Arakni prefers more red-pitch Stealth attacks since the first Stealth attack they play each turn gains go again — allowing you to attack an additional time. You’ll want plenty of blues for this hero, too, in order to reliably attack with your daggers throughout each game.
Uzuri doesn’t care as much what pitch value her Stealth attacks hold. Blue is best since when she activates her ability, the Stealth card goes to the bottom of your deck — leaving you with plenty of resources in the second cycle of your deck.
Note: Since each dual-class category includes the Assassin class, it is more likely that you’ll receive a high amount of Assassin cards in your Sealed pool.
<h3>Ninja</h3>
With the Ninja class, you’ll automatically gain what could be the greatest Limited-format weapon in Flesh and Blood — the <a href="https://fabrec.gg/cards/harmonized-kodachi">Harmonized Kodachi</a>.
<a href="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Harmonized-Kodachi-1.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-97994" src="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Harmonized-Kodachi-1-215x300.png" alt="Harmonized Kodachi" width="215" height="300" srcset="https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Harmonized-Kodachi-1-215x300.png 215w, https://edhrecstatic.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Harmonized-Kodachi-1.png 450w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 215px) 100vw, 215px" /></a>
Choosing between <a href="https://fabrec.gg/hero/katsu">Katsu</a> and <a href="https://fabrec.gg/hero/benji-the-piercing-wind">Benji</a> can be as simple as examining your attack action cards again. Benji prefers attacks with a base value of one or two. Keep in mind Benji’s synchronization with low-value attacks makes several blue and yellow attack actions much more valuable.

If you have a large generic pool and plenty of zero-cost cards, you may consider Katsu. The zero-cost cards will let you swing with two Harmonized Kodachis and at least one attack nearly every turn.
<h3>Ranger</h3>
<a href="https://fabrec.gg/hero/azalea">Azalea</a> may have just become the darling of the Outsiders era of Flesh and Blood. She has a powerful ability for Limited play with a chance to give an arrow Dominate. Since players start with 20 or fewer health points, pushing unblockable damage at key points in a match could be a deciding factor.

On the other hand, <a href="https://fabrec.gg/hero/riptide">Riptide</a> brings a unique ability of his own. He can place a card into the arsenal zone (assuming it’s empty) whenever he plays a card from his hand. With the card being placed into the arsenal face down, he can follow up this play by adding an aim counter to an arrow with <a href="https://fabrec.gg/cards/barbed-castaway">Barbed Castaway</a>.

<h2>Sealed Gameplay</h2>
Early Outsiders Sealed events worldwide have shown that including more than 30 cards in your deck is an effective strategy. Doing so increases your chances of not falling to fatigue — a common phrase in the community when a player runs out of cards in their deck. While not an auto-loss, running out of or low on cards means you can’t block, attack, or pay for your weapons.
Your deck’s strategy will mainly depend on your card pool. Take note of your most powerful red attacks. These attacks may represent your most consistent win conditions. You’ll want to avoid blocking with these attacks, and you may want to pitch them as resources if you see them in the first few hands.
