Magic: The Gathering’s Universes Beyond lineup of fresh sets based on third-party properties is showing no signs of slowing down, but before Marvel’s Spider-Man and Avatar: The Last Airbender, Final Fantasy has stolen the show.
The set is the most popular in Magic’s long history, and has led to prices skyrocketing for collector’s items like the Travelling Chocobo range and characters like Sephiroth.
