Summary

  • New Magic: The Gathering card immortalizes famous Final Fantasy glitch with Sabin Suplex.
  • Card features two effects: exile an artifact or deal 3 damage to a creature.
  • The Suplex card artwork depicts Sabin running at the Phantom Train, tying into the in-game event.

The Gathering card from the collection where it intersects with Final Fantasy has been unveiled. This card commemorates the most iconic humorous scene in the series by representing it as a potent Sorcery ability.

Final Fantasy 6 has a reputation for being prone to glitches, offering various exploits that can amplify characters’ power beyond normal limits, leapfrog sections of the narrative, or even crash the game altogether. The Sabin glitch, one of the most recognized, takes advantage of an oversight where his powerful Suplex attack influences creatures disproportionately larger than him.

The famous Sabin Suplex trick is linked to the Phantom Train foe, where Sabin can seemingly derail it, smash it onto the ground for harm, and then mysteriously, it reappears on its tracks. This significant instance has been immortalized on a Magic: The Gathering card, as showcased on r/MagicTCG.

Sabin Suplexing The Train Is Now In Magic: The Gathering

The “Suplex” card is a scarlet Sorcery that requires the expenditure of two mana (one red and one of any color). It carries two effects: The caster has the option to either expel an artifact from play or inflict three points of damage onto a creature, eliminating it from the game if it perishes in the process.

Indeed, the illustration on the Suplex card depicts Sabin in a sprint towards the Ghost Train, arms spread out, preparing to seize the spectral train and send it hurtling towards Suplex City.

In a unique twist that appeals to long-time Final Fantasy enthusiasts, this card isn’t just the first to reference in-game events; it also mirrors the game’s most famous character demise as a card effect. This crossover between Final Fantasy and Magic: The Gathering is particularly significant because it references iconic moments from both series, helping memes based on these games reach wider audiences.
