Magic the Gathering: Avatar Commander Party – Green Bay West

Magic PromoWill you become the next Avatar? The Commander Party for Avatar: The Last Air Bender gives you a chance!

Monday, January 12th at 6pm we invite players to play together with the Avatar Commander Party set of rules!

Eventcode: DWRM587

Each player who joins in will get a promo Gran-Gran! (While supplies last.)

GAMEPLAY: The play aid has four sections, one for each of the four bending elements. At the beginning of the first player’s third turn, each player puts their
marker on the element closest to them. Whenever a player meets the conditions on their element, they master that element and advance their marker clockwise to the next element. If a player would master an element they already mastered this game, they enter the avatar state instead.

For more information on the Commander Format visit https://magic.wizards.com/en/formats/commander 

“This format is for four players per game and deck sizes are 99 cards + 1 commander card. The game duration for this format should be about 20 minutes per player.

The Commander format is all about picking your hero and building a deck around them. In this casual, multiplayer format, you choose a legendary creature to serve as your commander and build the rest of your deck around their color identity and unique abilities. Players are only allowed one of each card in their deck, with the exception of basic lands, but they can use cards from throughout Magic’s history.”

Current Commander Banned list.
