Four nations, one Gathering
With Final Fantasy in the rear view and Spider-Man next up, Wizards of the Coast certainly isn’t lacking in Magic: The Gathering star power. However, before the calendar turns to 2026, there’s one more set that’s set to bend its way into the long-running card game, and today Wizards gave fans their first look at cards from the upcoming Avatar: The Last Airbender set.
The preview cards feature some old Magic mechanics that will be returning to competitive formats with the ATLA set, including the Lesson spell subtype, Shrine and Ally creature subtype, and double-faced Saga cards that transform into powerful permanents. The preview also highlighted the set’s new bending mechanics, with each of the four elements seeing at least one card throughout the reveal.
Magic: The Gathering – Avatar: The Last Airbender is scheduled to launch November 21 in both local game stores and big box retailers. The next Avatar-themed WeeklyMTG stream will broadcast October 28, with the full card gallery available on the official MTG website on November 7.
