Okay, listen up, because this is about to get, well, kind of weird. Team Avatar (yep, those guys from “Avatar: The Last Airbender”) is jumping into Magic: The Gathering. And before you ask, yes, your favorite character, the one who’s bizarrely obsessed with cabbages—Cabbage Merchant—gets his own card. Seriously, who saw that coming? This guy, whose main gig is having his greens obliterated by Aang and Appa, is now immortalized in card form. Wild, right? And, oh yeah, his infamous “My cabbages!!!” shout out? Iconic.
So, here’s the juicy bit. On a Magic stream—Tuesday, I think?—they unveiled his card. It’s nestled in the Jumpstart product. That’s the one for rookies, but don’t roll your eyes just yet. The Cabbage Man’s abilities? Kinda intriguing for seasoned players too. Jumpstart cards are Commander-legal but not your usual Standard fare—isn’t that a kick in the head?
And there’s this image floating around—a sneak peek, teaser or whatever of Aang, Katara, and yes, the legend himself—the Cabbage Merchant. Image: Wizards of the Coast, if you care about the source. But seriously, the art’s pretty cool.
Oh, and story time—during the livestream, there were whispers about multiple versions of our beloved cabbage connoisseur. Like, maybe he’s got other moods or arts. One of the hosts slyly teased, “We might see more of the Cabbage Merchant… and he isn’t always this happy.” Mysterious, right? What’s up with that? Anyway, sorry, lost my train of thought there. Where was I? Right, so keep your eyes peeled. ✨
