I can make you a FF14 card @Karo (maybe I'll update the shiny FF one with that game) but generally the new card added is for a series than a specific game so I wouldn't do a FF14 set and a regular FF set. So what non represented game series would you want? Smile

Hmm I was wondering could you do a third tier of cards and put FFXIV on that? It will also give an excuse for Night Lord to quest for the next tier of all miku's XD Anyways as for what series to add next I'm going to say Phoggies because they are adorable.

PS: If you do decide to make the FFXIV card don't use derplander I know some people like derplander, but I find him to be kinda boring. XD
