Counter Blitz (FINAL FANTASY X)
Tidus, Yuna's Guardian Commander Precon
The deck is a Bant +1/+1 counters aggro list built around Tidus. It spreads counters across a wide board, then attacks with countered creatures each turn so Cheer draws a card and proliferates once per turn. Tidus's beginning-of-combat counter move lets the deck shift growth onto evasive or key threats. Counter amplifiers, ETB counter sources and proliferate snowball the board, while unblockability, trample and double strike push the damage through. How it wins: It overwhelms opponents with ever-growing creatures made evasive or doubled in combat, backed by one-sided sweepers that spare its own countered board, and Walking Ballista can finish players off once counters pile up. Key roles: - Counter generation and amplification: These cards put counters on creatures as they enter or at the start of each combat, and some increase how many counters get placed, so nearly every creature carries counters and qualifies for Cheer. (Hardened Scales, Maester Seymour, Tromell, Seymour's Butler) - Proliferate and counter movement: Alongside Tidus's own proliferate and counter move, these cards multiply existing counters and relocate them onto the best attacker, and they also tick stun counters and Saga lore counters forward. (Inexorable Tide, Lulu, Stern Guardian, Nesting Grounds) - Evasion and combat force: These cards make countered creatures unblockable, give them trample or double strike, or exile blockers, so the combat damage needed for Cheer lands every turn. (Rikku, Resourceful Guardian, Chocobo Knights, Duskshell Crawler) - Counter-fueled card advantage: Beyond Cheer, these cards turn counters and combat hits into extra draws, including payoffs that cash in removed counters for cards. (Bred for the Hunt, Fathom Mage, Blitzball Stadium) - Counter conservation and resilience: These cards keep the investment safe by giving shields and indestructibility, recycling dying creatures, and passing a dead creature's counters to a survivor. (Yuna, Grand Summoner, Resourceful Defense, Luminous Broodmoth) - Asymmetric control: Removal and sweepers reset the table while the countered board survives or is rebuilt immediately, with counter-based mass wipes and Sin cashing in counters for one huge threat. (Damning Verdict, Summon: Valefor, Sin, Unending Cataclysm)
