Poly_raptor Definitely love the effort you put into the deck! One thing you might wanna change is the upvote link on the bottom of your description, it links to another deck!

Oof, yeah, change that -- Yeago tends to delete things like that on sight.

Oh fuck, thank you. Deleted. To put it bluntly I’m a novice when it comes to coding and I do my deck descriptions on my phone.
What’s the correct coding to use? I found an article that had the “correct coding” but apparently not,

Good point, Daedalus19876, I think Eyes Everywhere would be a good card to represent the Dai Li!

Poly_raptor: I think that was the correct coding style, but you've gotta change the deck slug inside the code, so that it links to "09-04-20-avatar-the-last-airbender" rather than whatever Scion list was used in the example code.
I use the following code for my Hapatra list, but it's not as pretty as yours was... and it keeps disappearing at random for some reason:
< form action="http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/toxic-relationship-hapatra-edh/vote-up/?rc=True">
I'd be curious to see what the CSS for yours looked like.

Daedalus19876 Ahhh that makes sense, thanks for explaining.
The code I used would was:
<a class="vote-link btn btn-success btn-sm" href="/mtg-decks/09-04-20-avatar-the-last-airbender/vote-up/?rc=True">+1 Upvote</

Try this (removing the space between the first bracket and the "a", and same before the last bracket):
< a class="vote-link btn btn-success btn-sm" href="http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/09-04-20-avatar-the-last-airbender/vote-up/?rc=True">+1 Upvote!< /a>
It worked on Hapatra, thanks for the code!

Poly_raptor, Im not sure, Id suggest maybe Red Sun's Zenith, just for the fact that Star of Extinction is just more damage, AND hits the flavor just right, Im not too entirely sure.

Interesting, the counter argument would Be that I can use Zenith and not hurt my own creatures. It also gets shuffled back in costs less.
But a board wipe could also be useful, I’ll have a think

This is a really well put together deck and looks like fun to play with lots of flavor +1

Daedalus19876 I’ve added in Spy Network to represent the Dai Li. I’ve cut Faithless Looting.

Really cool idea and follow through. Great job!

Thank you for bringing fond memories of this show. I love the Last Airbender with a burning passion. +1 tril!! Also, I will await for your guidance later on. Rest easy.

This looks like a real passion project. I bet you had a ton of fun crafting the deck!
I notice you've got plenty of instants and sorceries that cost 2 or under. Might I suggest an Isochron Scepter to make use of them in addition to your other strategies?

Thank you for your upvote WanderingSpirit
As much as I would love to run the Scepter, it doesn’t flavourfully represent anything from the show.

Glad you were able to find a place for Quiet Contemplation! Don't know if this card is any better than anything you already have, and you may already have as many water-bending cards as you want, but ran across Waterknot and I thought of you. It's actually nice pseudo-removal against commanders that want to attack or use tap abilities, since it doesn't allow them to go to the command zone! Not as good as Darksteel Mutation or Song of the Dryads for that purpose, but still has use, supports your "non-creature" theme, and is very on-flavor. :)

This deck is great! It has inspired me to make a Mairsil, the Pretender deck, based of koh, the face stealer in avatar. Thank you Polyraptor

This is amazing! I was digging around for inspiration for my own avatar deck and found this. I love the attention to detail and pure Vorthos core, with real power to boot.

Hello again! Came across another card that made me think of your project: Whirlwind of Thought
Pros:
- It gives you a repeatable source of card draw. I noticed the deck was very light in the card draw department, with mostly card filtering rather than true card draw (e.g. Frantic Search, Opt), or "impulsive draw" as it's been termed (e.g. Abbot of Keral Keep).
- It ties into the prowess / noncreature spell theme.
- It depicts airbending.
Cons:
- A female airbender isn't a part of ATLA. You'd have to interpret it as Aang somewhere off-camera using airbending ON someone.... for SOME random reason....
- Function-wise, it isn't actually as strong or efficient as Jeskai Ascendancy (sadly, that card's art has zero flavor tie-in). Ascendancy effectively doubles your prowess buffs, and while not true card draw, the repeatable loot effect is good. And the untap clause is nothing to sneeze at -- aside from the pseudo-vigilance it gives, imagine the edge case of multiple noncreature spells you can cast and a Beguiler of Wills on board..... Man, if they someday reprint Ascendancy with better art, it's an auto-include in my book! Maybe you could get an altered-art version?? :)
Hope this comment finds you well. Cheers!

Poly_raptor: I can't dig up any this second, but there's a lot of W/R things from Ixalan that use fans as weapons -- they were one of the classic weapons of the Sun Empire. You can see them in Huatli, Radiant Champion (albeit in the wrong colors), I'm sure there's some in WR.
