Magic The Gathering X Avatar The Last Airbender: Avatar Aang and other feature cards One of the featured cards, Avatar Aang, is a Legendary Creature – Human Avatar Ally that has the ability: "Whenever you waterbend, earthbend, firebend, or airbend, draw a card. Then, if you've done all four this turn, transform Avatar Aang." This mechanic hints at a dynamic gameplay experience that mirrors Aang's journey to master all four elements. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like God's people need you IFCJ | The Fellowship Donate Now Undo On the other hand, there's the space-themed Aang, Master of Elements, Legendary Creature – Avatar Ally card.
