We Built A Magic: The Gathering - Final Fantasy Lightning Commander Deck
Briefly

The Magic: The Gathering - Final Fantasy expansion set for release on June 13 features exciting cards for the game's Commander format. In building a deck around Lightning, Army of One, a red/white legendary creature, the article highlights her abilities, including first strike, trample, and lifelink. The deck design focuses on maximizing Lightning's potential to deal double damage to opponents, creating unique strategies for gameplay. The content also emphasizes the iterative nature of deck-building in Commander, suggesting that playtesting is essential to refine any deck.
While Lightning's toughness is lower than we'd like, the combo of keywords will be able to mitigate it in direct combat--first strike will let her damage a blocking creature first, excess damage will reach the player and activate the second ability, and lifelink will gain us life no matter where her damage is going.
The most popular format, though is Commander--where players builds decks of 100 cards, with no duplicate cards outside of basic lands, all themed around one legendary creature.
