Magic: The Gathering meets Final Fantasy in a competitive Standard deck tech! This Dimir Surveil deck revolves around Matoya, Archon Elder, a powerful new card from the Final Fantasy set that lets us draw a card whenever we Scry or Surveil – a card advantage engine every control mage dreams of. 🔍 Matoya finally makes Surveil strategies viable at the highest levels of Standard play, and we’ve paired her with a suite of synergistic tools to dominate the ranked ladder.

In this video, we showcase how Matoya’s ability turns every Surveil effect into extra draws, fueling a relentless control game. We combine Matoya with efficient Surveil enablers and Dimir removal/counterspells to bury opponents in card advantage. Key inclusions like [[Tetsuo’s Divination]] (Surveil 2) and [[Y’shtola, Archon of Light]] (to leverage those draws) ensure that every turn we’re filtering our draws and out-valuing the competition. The result is a tier-1 Standard deck that can climb to Mythic with ease.

Final Fantasy synergy is on full display – beyond Matoya, we utilize iconic FF cards like Sephiroth, One-Winged Angel as a finisher and Shadow Lord for additional graveyard control, all Standard-legal and optimized for MTG Arena. Whether you’re a high-level Standard grinder or a Final Fantasy fan looking for a competitive deck, this Dimir Surveil list has you covered. Watch us pilot the deck through intense ranked matches and see how Matoya can arch an eyebrow at any opponent’s game plan!

We focus on Standard meta innovations, so if you want to stay ahead of the curve with the latest Final Fantasy MTG tech and deck optimization strategies, you’re in the right place. Let’s dive into gameplay and see why Matoya is the new Dimir queen of card advantage in Standard.
