Courtesy of Wizards of the Coast (WotC), check out Magic’s interpretation of Lindblum from Final Fantasy IX as one of the rare Adventure lands from Magic: The Gathering—FINAL FANTASY.
Lindblum, Industrial Regency functions as the land with the Town subtype that enters the battlefield tapped and produces red mana while Mage Siege, the Adventure half of the card, represents Queen Brahne’s black mage invasion of the largest city in Final Fantasy IX.
The massive regency of Lindblum is located atop a mountain peak in the southernmost part of the Mist Continent and is divided into four districts. The Industrial District is home to the engineers who are developing the steam engine which can operate without the use of mist. People use air cabs, which are powered via steam, to travel between the separate districts.
The actual land half of the card doesn’t offer much to talk about, but the adventure, at only three mana, leads to some interesting possibilities. The 0/1 body of the black Wizard token can’t do much but chump block on its own, but its ability allows you to burn out players with a flurry of spells. Being instant-speed also allows the damage to come out of nowhere if you play it at an opponent’s end step.
Lindblum, Industrial Regency could find a home in Jeskai or Izzet Control decks thanks to its flexibility. It’s still unknown if a town deck will be a potential archetype like gates or caves, but if it is, this land could find a home there as well.
