Gilgamesh, Master-at-Arms: Wield the Samurai's Arsenal
Gilgamesh, Master-at-Arms, emerges as a robust Legendary Creature that perfectly embodies the tactical depth of a Samurai in Magic's Universes Beyond: FINAL FANTASY set. Costing {4}{R}{R}, this 6/6 Human Samurai is an imposing presence on the battlefield. His triggered ability activates both upon entering and attacking, allowing you to sift through the top six cards of your library. This selective search lets you deploy multiple Equipment cards directly onto the battlefield, turning Gilgamesh into a force multiplier that enhances your board state fluidly.
What sets Gilgamesh apart is his synergy with Samurai-themed decks and Equipment strategies alike. When you place Equipment via his ability, you may attach one to a Samurai you control, granting immediate value and increasing your creatures’ offensive potential without tapping into additional mana. This interaction not only rewards strategic deckbuilding but also accelerates your tempo in mid to late-game scenarios.
