Legacy Collection

Are you ready for this?

It looks like this will be a replacement for the Anniversary Collection Sets that we have had over the last few years. And, you’ll either be Excited or Disappointed.

Excited because all those cards that are worth a lot will come down in price allowing you to grab those cards on the cheap. And disappointed because, well if you bought those cards at a high price, that price will come down soon.

From the looks of it the Legacy Collection will be coming out in a smaller box, as it will only have 20 packs per box, and 5 cards per pack, giving you 100 cards per box, plus the box topper. Which will be a Crystal.

What about the Foils?

I’m glad you asked, these cards will be newly designed. Does that mean that the Foiling will be different? Does it mean the cards will have a new design completely? I guess we’ll be finding out in February.

I noticed that the numbers on the cards will be different, allowing collectors and players an easy way to distinguish between the 2 cards. This is something that I have been hoping Square Enix would do, as it now gives us an easy way of distinguishing the cards between the originals and the reprints.

Full Arts!!!

Every card will have one. That in itself will make the Legacy Collection worth it. 200 different Full Arts, most of which we’ve never had before. The more I read about this set the better it gets.

And we now have a chance at getting 2 different Gold Stamped Signatures. Yuna (12-105L) and Warrior of Light (19-128L)

2025 looks like it’s going to be a great year for FFTCG!

Tears of the Planet

The new set has been revealed.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you, “Tears of the Planet”!

Sounds like an album title if you ask me. But, you’re not asking me. I’m telling you.

Let’s start off with the box art, as you can see Aerith has finally made it, on her own box. Yes, she was on Hidden Hope, but that was with Zack. And, this is her Solo Project.

First off, these sets are getting smaller and smaller. Only 118 cards for this set, with 30 Full arts. 1 is will be the Golden Signature featuring Aerith, and one is a Crystal. That leaves 28 Full arts. If one is the Buy a Box Promo, and the other the Prerelease Promo, that gives us 26 Full Arts. And if we’re still getting a full set of Full Art cards per set, which I don’t see changing. That means in every Master Case, there will be 2 boxes with 3 Full Art cards in them.

That’s something worth noting.

The date set for us is March 28th, 2025, That also means Midnight Pre-Release will be on March 21st, 2025, so mark your calendars, because it always is a great time.

/Self Promotion

Let’s take a look at Zack (25-073L).

Final Fantasy VII will be getting plenty of support. With plenty of Lightning support, even if you throw Zack in a Shinra themed deck, he will become a threat.

Every time Zach attacks, you can bring a Final Fantasy VII Character back from the Break Zone, only requirement is that, that Character costs 2CP or less. Shouldn’t be that hard to find one, even if you keep bringing the same Character in after they attack or block.

Rush Assault? When Zack Attacks, you can use his Signature ability and break one of your opponent’s Forwards! No cost Requirements, no nothing. Just stock up on all Zacks from every Opus.

Yes, please. May I have another?

And, Aerith (25-035L)

We know what happens next.

But, we won’t say anything, just in case you’ve been living under a Meteor … I mean Rock.

Aerith comes in and one of your opponent’s Characters lose all of their abilities for as long as Aerith is on the field.

And when she finally gets sent to the Break Zone, you can remove Aerith from the game, and you’ll be able to draw a card.

This will make Aerith a Free Play in the end.

From these 2 cards, I would say that the Zack is a much better card, compared to the Aerith.

Legacy cards are also making a comeback, this time we get Ovelia (13-090L), Squall (16-011L) and Griever (21-027L). These three aren’t bad picks, as the art for all 3 of these will be well presented as a Full Art Foil.

And, we’ll leave it right there, until we get some more information.
