Master the Artifice with Cid, Timeless Artificer
Cid, Timeless Artificer stands as a formidable centerpiece in any artifact-centered deck, particularly within the synergy-driven framework of the Universes Beyond: FINAL FANTASY set. His ability to bolster Artifact creatures and Heroes by granting a +1/+1 bonus for each Artificer on your battlefield and in your graveyard creates a scaling threat that rewards strategic artifact deployment and graveyard management. This mechanic encourages a layered approach to board development, enabling incremental growth in power that can overwhelm opponents through attrition and tactical advantage.
Beyond his offensive capabilities, Cid’s cycling ability adds flexibility to your gameplay, allowing you to trade him for a fresh card when needed, ensuring consistent resource flow. His 4/4 body paired with a hybrid mana cost of white, blue, and colorless makes him an adaptable inclusion in multicolor builds aiming to leverage artifact synergies and Hero tribal themes. Cid’s presence encourages careful deck construction, inviting players to maximize Artifact and Artificer counts for ongoing value.
