Delays for the Championship

Yes, you read that right. The World Championship Decks 2024 have been delayed. I spoke to our distributor, as well as fellow card shops and they all have no clue as to when they will be arriving.

That is also why we have taken them down. If you are one of the few that have preordered it. We will send them out as soon as they get here.

We’ll keep you all updated with any new information.

Dreamlike Oceans

Square Enix gave us a look into the future. And, it means we’re going on vacation. Picture this a beach a dreamlike ocean, a daiquiri in your hand sitting under an umbrella, and Yuna performs the Sending as she guides the spirits of the dead to the Farplane.

Well something like that.

This is actually the first time that Final Fantasy X has graced the box art. And it might just be the best one yet. And, I’m not a big fan of Yuna, so that’s saying something. And, let’s not forget the Golden Signature. This one is Yuna’s second. And, I see this one commanding a high price in the future. (That’s just speculation.)

Scheduled for release on March 27, 2026. We’ll have a smaller set with 124 cards, and 38 Full Arts.

Along with Yuna, there are sample cards of Garnet, Edward, Lumina, Cloud, Cecil and Yoshikiri.

Looking at Yuna’s card, Maybe the Gullwings will come back. YRP! I can’t say that we’ve seen a good Rikku and Paine in quite some time. At least not one that I liked.

World Championship Decks 2024

Did we forget to mention these?

It sure looks like it.

World Championship Decks 2025 are actually almost here. You can say they are right around the Korner. (That never gets old, at least to me.)

We have them up for Pre-Order, and you can find that link here.

Other than that, we’ll let Square-Enix explain. With a simple Copy and Paste.

What is the World Champion Deck?

The ”World Champion Decks 2024” will be sold as a new preconstructed deck that is a full reproduction of the two decks used by the player who won the “World Championship”. Since the two decks are the exact same two decks that won the Championship, you will have two well-constructed decks to play with immediately after purchase.

Furthermore, by using decks constructed by a top player, you will be able to not only enjoy FFTCG as a game but experience the deep world of deck-building.

These cards have a dedicated serial number along with a 2024 World Championship logo but can be used in tournaments mixed with normal cards.

Contents:

1 Storage Box (outer box)
1 Deck List/Paper Playmat (front and back on 1 sheet)
Preconstructed Decks (116 total cards)
Fire and Water Monster Deck
Warrior of Light Deck

*Each deck contains a total of 58 cards consisting of 50 main deck cards and 8 LB deck cards.

*All cards come as a framed Normal version.

*The World Championship 2024 logo replaces the Element icon in the text frame on normal cards.

Deck Specs:

Fire and Water Monster Deck

Based around 13 Monster cards, Forwards with abilities that work well with Monsters, such as Witch of the Fens [23-104H], Gau [21-102L] and Relm [11-124H] are leveraged to play the game to one’s advantage. The deck also incorporates the latest high-performance cards such as Ifrit (XVI) [24-001L] and Clive [24-005L] that dominate the field.

Warrior of Light Deck

A deck comprised of many Job Warrior of Light cards that have multiple powerful synergies. This is a highly well-rounded deck that features cards that complement each other, such as Refia [19-102L] and Faris [18-012L], demonstrating their superior abilities by controlling many Job Warrior of Light cards, as well as Warrior of Light [19-128L], who plays a central role in both offense and defense.
