We are sad to announce that the Final Fantasy TCG Custom Starter Set is canceled due to delays in the product. We’ll keep you all informed on when we will host the event, and when the Custom Starter Sets will arrive.
Community Market Pop-Up
There is another Pop-Up on the way. And yes, we will have a booth there once again. Same place as before. I believe this one will have a little bit of everything, but there will be tables setup for casual play once again.
Game Knight Chicago’s
“Pop-Up Community Market”
Sunday. March, 20th 2022
12PM – 7PM
6254 S. Archer Road
Summit, IL 60501
Pulse of Life
*Spoiler Alert*
It’s what everyone has been trying to do since the end of disc 1. Yes that was just in case you still haven’t played FFVII.
End Spoiler
Aerith – 16-067L
Forward
Ancient
VII
Legend
5000 Power
“The Forwards other than Aerith you control gain +2000 power
When Aerith is put from the field into the Break Zone, you may remove Aerith from the game. When you do so, place 3 Reraise Counters on Aerith.
At the begining of Main Phase 1 during each of your turns, if 1 or more Reraise Counters are placed on Aerith, remove 1 Reraise Counter from Aerith. Then, if there are no Reraise Conters on Aerith, play Aerith onto the field. This effect will trigger only if Aerith is removed from the game.”
Let’s just put aside Final Fantasy VII for now. Although I know most of us will just throw her in a VII deck based off of Cloud, Tifa, Barret and Marlene. Add in some Avalanche and you just added Aerith to the party.
But, we’re going to look at this a little differently.
We’re pairing Aerith with Enna Kross. The plan is to bring in the “Big Guns” and make them even bigger. For simplicity, we’re
just going to stay in Earth.
Prishe (1-116L) : Prishe already comes in with 8K power, which is pretty good by itself. Add the 3000 and you get 11000 Power, which is enough to take down Bhunivelze. But, you can always use Auroral Uppercut and double that power, for a total of 22000 Power. You’ll probably never need that much power, but then again why do we always level up our characters to Lvl.99
Gabranth (2-081L) : Although no one really uses Gabranth anymore, it’s a good card to play towards the end of the game. When he costs 1CP and gives everyone Brave.
Y’shtola (12-119L) : Ok, so this one is Wind/Earth, but it still counts. Y’shtola will hardly take any damage. Ever. Period. And frankly she can’t be blocked by a Forward that would be able to Break her.
And, that’s just a few Forwards, that you can play. Any better ideas? I bet you have some. Let us know in the comments.
FFM – FFX Custom Starter Set
FFM Returns!
Forget about FNM, we’ve got FFM.
FFM stands for Final Fantasy Midnight. Our events for everyone that can’t make it to regular events because of their jobs. Just like us, we we’re never able to make it to events, cause we worked all day, and by the time we would be able to head over, the event was over.
Here’s what we got.
Date. Time. Location and Prizes.
Friday, February 25th. (Date may be changed due to delays. We’ll let you know as soon as we find out.)
9229 S Cicero Ave
Oak Lawn, IL 60453
Time?
Come by any time after 10PM. You can hang out while we set things up, maybe even play some a game or two. The Event will start at 12AM (Technically it’s Saturday).
Prizes?
Yes, there will be a Prize for the winner. Either another FFX Custom Starter Set, or one of your choosing from the ones available at the Event.
Need more information? You can always contact us through E-mail.
It Was A Good Day
Game Knight Chicago’s Collectables Pop-Up has come and gone.
I was supposed to make a video about it, but I’m just terrible at it. I just keep forgetting to actually shoot anything. Maybe, I just need to hire a cameraman to follow me around.
We got there early in the morning. Set up our tables, and we had a seat as we waited for the people to start coming in. And start coming in they did. Lots of friendly people, and some not so friendly.
All in all we taught a couple of people how to play Final Fantasy TCG, which is always a good thing in my book. They mentioned that it was similar to World of Warcraft. I never played WoW, so I can’t really say.
At the end of the day, after experiencing our first Mini-convention, all I can say is that I can’t wait for the next one.
