This creates a small space to explore what I call gimmick decks in the Alpha League, a design space generally that does not exist anywhere else in constructed Magic (although, on occasions, can occur in Limited contexts, which obey the original rules of Magic: 40 card minimums, and no unique card caps)
This card will deal damage to a chosen character equal to the number of characters you have in play, which makes it an incredible card as long as you have a lot of bodies on the board
When Zodiark is summoned, each player sacrifices half their creatures (rounded down), and for every being sacrificed in this way, Zodiark gets a +1/+1 counter
These force your opponent to discard a card from their hand, and while this might not appear all that powerful at first glance, repeatedly forcing your opponent to discard cards or being able to choose a specific card from your opponent's makes discard effects worthwhile
Representation from one game to the next will vary a bit, with it sounding like Final Fantasy VII, thanks to its impact on the franchise as a whole and the recent Remake trilogy, will be heavily featured
