Gameplay Insights

    Ozai's strategy revolves around holding a large amount of unspent mana to gain indestructibility and flying, creating a timing window where he is nearly untouchable.

    Fire Lord Zuko's synergy with exile-based spells and permanents allows him to ramp mana and increase creature size dynamically during combat, making his attacks increasingly threatening.

  • 3

    Toph capitalizes on land sacrifice and landfall triggers to repeatedly generate resources, enabling either a combo finish or a board flood with artifact-based recursion.

  • 4

    Sokka's token generation through non-creature spells combined with menace and prowess creates constant offensive pressure, forcing opponents to deal with multiple threats every turn.
