Avatar’s Cabbage Merchant Makes His Debut in Magic: The Gathering

I’m just a regular person sitting here trying to keep up with this wild news about Magic: The Gathering. I mean, who would’ve thought the Cabbage Merchant from Avatar: The Last Airbender — yes, the guy whose cabbages get obliterated every other episode — would get his own card? Honestly, I kinda love it. My cabbages, right?

So, picture this: the card popped up during a Magic livestream. And it’s not just some throwaway thing for newbies, you know? It’s part of the Jumpstart set, which, side note, is for fresh players learning the ropes. But wait. Here’s the kicker: this card might actually be a thing for seasoned players. Or maybe not. Depends on how you roll with your deck strategy. (Commander format fans, I’m looking at you – sorry, Standard folks, not your jam.)

Now, I’m scrolling through this image of the card — strangely comforting, seeing the Cabbage Merchant all, like, serious. It’s this pic from Wizards of the Coast, and I can’t help but think how those cabbages would sound if they talked. Weird, huh?

But there’s more. Wizards dropped a hint that maybe, just maybe, alternate versions of this card could roll out. Like, more art of our cabbage-loving friend? Though sometimes he won’t be smiling, apparently. Which, I guess, makes sense considering, you know, cabbages.

Anyway — no, actually, I lost my train of thought. What was I even saying? Oh right. Cabbages. Gotta love the randomness of it all.
