The Opus XIV : Crystal Abyss Prerelease Kit has been revealed. With The Emperor on the box, this will be our first taste at playing a game with these cards. Due to come out on July, 31st 2021.
The Kit contains 9 packs, the new standard for these Prerelease Kits. The Tifa 
Promo card, and the sleeves. I thought it was Warmech, but on closer inspection it looks like it might be Omega Weapon. The Omega on his chest and arm gives it away. Either way the artwork looks amazing.
On to the card.
Tifa – Avalanche Operative
Forward
2CP – Fire/Earth
5000 Power
“When Tifa enters the field, you may search for 1 Card Name Cloud and add it to your hand.
When a Forward other than Tifa you control attacks, it gains +1000 power until the end of the turn.
Damage 6 – When Tifa enters the field, you may play 1 Category VII Character from your hand onto the field.”
Either of the 2 Clouds from Opus XI, will work great here, and at Damage 6, Sephiroth (11-130L) will be a great card to play.
But, the question is is it worth playing this Tifa over the Opus XI Tifa (11-071L)?
5CP/Lightning
Now, we’ll need to search for Behemoth K, and there’s no one better than Aldo (10-086C) who will search for a Lightning forward. Not only will Aldo let you search for Behemoth K, 
but also for Illua (5-099H). and, everybody loves Illua. And, you can’t forget about Estinien (6-088L). Behemoth K and Estinien is like having Hulk Hogan and “Macho Man” Randy Savage on a tag team. Wait, they were a tag team. The Mega Powers.
On to the Stats.
Let’s find some searchers. Epitav (6-067R) and Kolka (7-069C) will both let you search for Leo. While Luminous Puma (8-080C) will allow you to grab Leo from the Break Zone. You might as well grab Larkeicus (9-076H) to be able to grab Luminous Puma from the Break Zone or to search for him.
when Luminous Puma is put from the field into the Break Zone, you can search for a Luminous Puma and add it to your hand. You can add all sorts of Monsters. Especially ones that turn into Forwards.
Here comes Shara, wind Legend of Opus XIII. As in the game Shara protected Ritz, and that is pretty much what she will be doing.
You’ll want to play as many Final Fantasy Tactics Advance cards as you can get. To keep adding Viera Counters on Shara. And then you’ll just keep using her ability on Ritz.
Right off the bat, we’ll add Marche (11-017H) and Ritz (11-063L) and you’ve won the game. But, we’ll need more cards to complete this deck. Might as well add Llednar (13-108L) because he’s shiny and new. The other Llednar might work as well, both are good cards in my opinion. Doned (11-053H) Will allow you to search for Marche, which will in turn allow you to play Ritz. You’ll need at least one Fire Backup, Black Mage (8-007C) might be a good pick as he’ll add a Viera Counter on Shara. Or you can always play Princess Sarah (11-128H)
On to the card
There’s plenty of Forwards that will cause your opponent to discard a card from their hands. Argath (1-033C), Locke(4-048L), and Locke(12-116L) all have on entry abilities that will make your opponent Discard 1 card. Borghen(6-039H) will make them, discard a card when he enters the Break Zone. He’s basically a cheap blocker. Innocence (13-137S), dulls and makes your opponent discard 2 cards. Laguna (9-037C) searches for an Ice Forward. Squall (6-033H has effects depending on how many cards your opponent has. Baralai (12-114R) Has abilities that trigger when your opponent discards a card from his hand, or your backups activate. Vayne (9-022L) will make your opponent pay 1CP for each Forward they have, or they will be broken.
Bard (1-036C) will dull and your opponent shall discard 1 card. Class Ninth Moogle (9-033C) will let you pay the Wind Crystal Point needed for Baralai and Locke, but will also let you cast Asura (2-049H) and Pandemonium (5-032H). Both which will activate your backups and let Baralai deal 3K Damage to all your opponents Forwards.
2 More Summons. Mateus, the Corrupt (5-044C) Just to Break a blocking Forward if you need to. And, Glasya Labolas (5-032H) so, your opponent can discard another card.
