Duelist's Flame // Duelist's Flame

Duelist's Flame was released as part of the Final Fantasy Trading Card Game's Scene Box collection, a product line designed to highlight key narrative moments from the series. This card focuses on capturing the visceral energy of combat, acting as both a functional gameplay component and a visual homage to the character dynamics prevalent in the franchise. It was curated to provide players with a thematic snapshot of the intensity found throughout the game's expansive lore.
