Magic: The Gathering – Avatar: The Last Airbender is an upcoming Universes Beyond crossover set releasing on November 21, 2025, bringing the beloved Nickelodeon series into the world of MTG in a fully Standard-legal expansion.
Why Players Should Be Excited:
Faithful Story Integration
The set closely follows Aang’s journey across the original series, featuring iconic characters like Katara, Zuko, Toph, and Fire Lord Ozai. Expect cards that reflect key story arcs and elemental mastery.
Elemental Bending Mechanics
New gameplay mechanics include Airbending, Waterbending, Earthbending, and Firebending, each tied to MTG’s color pie (e.g., blue for water, red for fire). These mechanics offer fresh strategic depth and thematic resonance.
Standard Format Impact
Unlike some previous Universes Beyond sets, this one is Standard-legal, meaning it will influence competitive play across formats like Standard, Modern, and Pioneer.
Whether you're a longtime MTG player or an Avatar fan eager to see your favorite characters in card form, this set promises a rich blend of nostalgia, strategy, and storytelling.
