Debuting in Final Fantasy III (the NES one) and being promoted to series mainstay in V, the bat-winged Moogles are definitely the “cute” mascots of the series, and they even got a playable proper character in VI with Mog…and a bunch of one-off Moogle party members you control early in the game, during a sequence where you have to protect Terra.
Moogles’ Valor is a pretty effective combat trick for what it is: double the presence of bodies on the board, and grant everything indestructible. The Moogle tokens coming wiht lifelink and 2 toughness is actually pretty good for blunting hits and recouping a bit of life if you have to let things through…and I will mention that, while the Moogles lack haste, this can be used offensively, to ram attackers through safely and leave behind blockers for later.
The only real sticking point is the obvious one: five mana is a lot, and it definitely telegraphs itself to leave that much mana open if you’re aiming to spring this as a trap. It also relies on you having a board to protect…you need creatures to get any value, and ideally you want a healthy number of them. Still, though, this can spare you from an untimely board wipe or attack, or it can help reinforce a good board position, and all of those are valuable enough to make this an acceptable part of one’s toolbox.
