Game Changers

Why this bracket?

1 Game Changer — farewell. Per WotC framework, any Game Changer forces a Bracket 3 floor minimum.
1 Game Changer detected (any = Bracket 3 floor; Bracket 3 allows up to three)
Borderline verdict — close to B2: Bracket 3 solely on a single Game Changer (Farewell) — otherwise plays at Core pace (goldfish ~turn 9), no combo or fast clock
Engine accuracy reference: 100% bracket-in-range across 36 validation decks (engine beats Claude Sonnet/Opus/Haiku on bracket-exact).

How it compares

Against the 4 Final Fantasy Commander decks we analyzed, this is the strongest — power 5.7 versus a set average of 4.7. That is 1.0 above the 58-precon library average of 4.7. Its Tipping Point lands on turn 3, 1 turn earlier than the library median of turn 4.

Upgrade this precon

6 staples this deck does not already run — all legal in Tidus, Yuna's Guardian's colour identity, none over $20, and none of them a Game Changer, so none forces a Bracket 3 floor on its own. Adding cards can still move the bracket: paste the updated list back into the calculator to re-check.
