Well, time to fill up the web shooters, practice great power with great responsibility, and have usual comic shenanigans. Here is the Top Deck Though review thread for the upcoming Universe Beyond Spider-Man Set! #MTGxSpiderMan

On interesting thing to note....Avatar CB boxes went significantly down...don't know when that happen but they were in the 800-1000 a while back...now a majority of them are in the 600's.... I still say wait till there in the 450 to 500's personally but a thing to note.
Prices of Avatar CB Boxes.

I be legit curious to see how the Furby ones do honestly.

If I had to make a guess which one will sell out first that not a bundle....probably the one with Demonic tutor in it...call it a hunch.

For me, I be enduring the line for Jaws (want to upgrade Gimbal/Neriv with the card) so if anyone needs me to pick up something for them that can't wait in the line, let me know.

Good bye NYC! #NYCC was insane. I am so thankful to be a small part of an extremely ambitious multi property collaboration/promotion. The WOTC events team is simply the best.

The cabbage merchant will return one more time before set release. Stay tuned for that announcement!

Look at the card again...oh, I now see now...ok, that funny.
levdev.bsky.social
One I thing I will say though....if you do transform Aang...you can cast another copy of Aang front side for free....and presuming if a majority of cards in you deck can do any of the respective bending mechanics......that has the potential for storm shenanigans.....
levdev.bsky.social
Keeping my eye on the card though.
levdev.bsky.social
On the other hand...it is still a 4 drop that technically doesn't do anything the turn it comes in (presuming no setup of course) and that is going to be tricky to play in a meta where a majority of creatures do a powerful ETB triggers in current standard. Time will tell.

Like I don't expect the card draw it provides to be enduring curiosity absurd....but .... potentially close.
levdev.bsky.social
To be fair, a pretty absurd 6/6.
Aang, Master of Elements
Legendary Creature — Avatar Ally

Flying

Spells you cast cost {W}{U}{B}{R}{G} less to cast.

At the beginning of each upkeep, you may transform Aang, Master of Elements. If you do, you gain 4 life, draw four cards, put four +1/+1 counters on him, and he deals 4 damage to each opponent.

6/6

We have to see the full set to tell for sure, but, if there a deck design that can do multiple instances of any of the bending mechanics consistantly...this can draw you multiple cards. Not to mention Aang himself draws a card when he attacks. That pretty sweet honestly.
levdev.bsky.social
I was looking back at Avatar cards again to get ready for the debut at the end of the month and I just realized with Aang...while I think many players will try to flip him to the absurd transformed state....I don't think we should sleep on the potentially absurd card draw engine of the front side.
Avatar Aang
{R}{G}{W}{U}
Legendary Creature — Human Avatar Ally

Flying, firebending 2

Whenever you waterbend, earthbend, firebend, or airbend, draw a card. Then if you’ve done all four this turn, transform Avatar Aang.

When the world needed him most, the Avatar returned.

4/4

Three Blind Mice is a forgotten card, but this fun Bant deck for Standard plays it alongside a bunch of other enchantments as the way to win on the MTG Arena ladder.

There are ways around it of course but I can understand the frustration if you want to do some cheeky loops.
levdev.bsky.social
Do note, my previous assessment of the mechanic with the initial review is incorrect.
levdev.bsky.social
Ok, now that I learn sneak on creature spells work just like ninjitsu and the creature cast this way is tapped and attacking. The card is way better than I give it credit for.

Mark answered this the other day (to save Matt some time)
levdev.bsky.social
Ok, that's good to know. I was reevaluating the card and realized I didn't figure that out yet. Ok, card is a lot better if it's sneak in a double strike creature.
