With Final Fantasy, we’re getting some great Rebels with equipment synergy, but we’re also upgrading the deck towards supporting more our commander and its Rebel Token generation.

Ashe, Princess of Dalmasca works wonders with our Rebel Tribal as we run a big number of artifacts and on attack trigger she let us look at the top five cards of your library and tutors an artifact to our hand. She is quite vulnerable, but she can be a repeatable tutor and we can get amazing value out of her. A great card for our build.

Firion, Wild Rose Warrior is a haste enabler for equipped creatures, but also copies nontoken Equipments we control when they enter, except they have “This Equipment’s equip abilities cost  less to activate. Sacrifice that token at the beginning of the next upkeep”. Great value and synergy with our Rebel Tribal and with For Mirrodin! Keyword Equipment, since we sacrifice only the equipment copies, leaving the Rebel tokens on the battlefield. Amazing utility for our build!

Banon, the Returners’ Leader can be a great value engine in our Rebel Tribal. His abilities synergize with each other, and by paying and discarding a card, we can draw a card and potentially cast the discarded card with his Pray ability. A great addition to our build.

Gogo, Mysterious Mime might be one of the most powerful cards for our Rebel Tribal. It copies another target creature we control until end of turn, except its name is Gogo, Mysterious Mime, meaning it can copy Legendary creatures. That can be crazy if we copy our commander Otharri, Suns’ Glory, as we will get both double the experience counters and double the Rebel Token generation. If we also have any triggered ability duplicator or an extra combat provider, it quickly gets out of hand. Moreover, even its buff of +2 power works great with Otharri as it has Lifelink, so we may gain 10 Life in total. A hidden gem for our build.

Darksteel Plate is an Indestructible equipment that provides equipped creature with Indestructible, so it is a powerful protection card. It is a top card in builds that depend too much on their commander, and care about equipment, so it naturally fits our Rebel Tribal.

Overpowering Attack is an extra combat phase provider, that has Freerunning , which seems ideal for our commander that has Flying and Haste. Depending on the board state, it can be a finisher.

Whispersilk Cloak works wonders in our Rebel Tribal as it both protects our top priority creature with Shroud and makes it Unblockable which is essential for attacking. A must-have card for our build.

Cathars’ Crusade is insane because it triggers in creature ETB (including Tokens) so in our Rebel Tribal it can quickly buff our Rebels to the point where our attacks will be lethal. An excellent way to finish our opponents.

Inspiring Leader is a great card for Token builds that are going wide as it gives our commander “Creature tokens you control get +2/+2”, so it greatly fits our Rebel Tribal.
