Study up on some upcoming mechanics!

Firebending is a keyword that always includes a number. Whenever a creature you control with firebending attacks, you add that much red mana. You don’t lose this mana during that combat. Any of this mana you still have as combat ends will be lost. You won’t have it during your second main phase.

Airbend is a keyword action. To airbend a permanent or a spell, you exile it. As long as that card remains exiled, its owner may cast it by paying rather than paying its mana cost. This doesn’t change when that card can be cast. If you airbend a creature that an opponent owns during your turn (notably something Appa can’t do unless you control that creature, but other cards can), they’ll usually have to wait until their next turn to cast it again.

Waterbend is a cost and always includes an amount of mana that must be paid … somehow. More on that in a moment. Waterbend costs can appear as an additional cost to cast a spell, as part of an ability’s activation cost, or anywhere else you might be asked to pay mana.

To pay a waterbend cost, you can always just pay the requested mana. However, for each 1 mana in that cost, you can tap an untapped artifact or creature you control rather than pay that mana. If you choose to tap a creature to help pay a waterbend cost, it can be one that just came under your control that turn.

Earthbend is another keyword action that includes a number. When you earthbend, choose target land you control. As the earthbend ability resolves, that land becomes a 0/0 creature with haste that’s still a land. Then put +1/+1 counters on it equal to the earthbend number. Because the new creature land will have haste, you can feel free to earthbend lands that you just played. There is no summoning sickness in Ba Sing Se.

*pricing is subject to change up to 72 hours before the event

What is Commander?

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 or artifact to serve as your commander and build the rest of your deck around their color identity and unique abilities. Players have a limit of one of each card in their deck, with the exception of basic lands, but they can use cards from throughout Magic’s history. A card’s color identity can come from any part of that card, including its casting cost and any mana symbols in its text. Every card in your Commander deck must only use mana symbols that also appear on your commander. Colorless cards are allowed as well.
