MTGGoldfish added a user-submitted Commander decklist for the new legend "Fire Lord Azula" on Feb. 26, 2026. The site’s deck database entry “shows a full 99-card list, sample mana base, and meta tags that help players understand how the deck fits into existing arc.”

The MTGGoldfish deck table excerpt supplied here shows a flood of Azula-themed submissions across late January and February 2026, not just the single Feb. 26 upload. Representative rows include “2026-02-27 | Azula Flash | Jrobbo117 - | 208 tix | $ 1,419,” “2026-02-26 | Azula | LRNZ - | 19 tix | $ 168,” and earlier entries such as “2026-01-23 | Fire Lord Azula | JailBreaking23 - | 131 tix | $ 1,120.” Price estimates in the table vary wildly, from “2026-02-17 | Azula Needs Therapy | Nightwatch Tom - | 3 tix | $ 47” up to “2026-02-07 | Azula V1.1 | Mirai - | 335 tix | $ 14,006,” and the excerpt includes ellipses indicating additional rows exist beyond this selection.

Draftsim’s separate deck tech frames typical Azula builds around instant-speed interaction and flash synergies. Draftsim lists the commander as “Fire Lord Azula” and enumerates 18 creatures used in its sample list, including Archmage Emeritus, Dualcaster Mage, Electro, Assaulting Battery, Ozai, the Phoenix King, and Zuko, Firebending Master. Draftsim also signals the presence of 23 instants in its sample list. Draftsim’s analysis states, “Between firebending 2 and the timing of Fire Lord Azula’s spell copy ability, it encourages you to play at instant speed as much as possible.” The article also advises that “When you have a flash enabler on the battlefield, Azula lets you treat your combat phase as your main phase: You can cast your mana rocks, your nonlegendary creatures, and your sorceries during combat to double them, not just your instants.”

Community contributors are already pitching budget routes. On r/mtg, user thetylerbucks posted a thread titled “$65 Fire Lord Azula Deck Tech | Banish Your Enemies On A Budget” and wrote, “With the release of the Avatar set, Fire Lord Azula has taken Commander by storm. So, if you’re looking to build around this commander without breaking the bank, then this list will help! I promise, it’s just as unhinged as she is 🔥” The supplied excerpt does not include a post date or the full $65 list.

The immediate picture is clear: multiple builders across MTGGoldfish, Draftsim, and Reddit have produced Azula lists and guidance in the weeks around the Avatar release, and MTGGoldfish’s deck database claims a full 99-card entry for Feb. 26. To verify card-level choices and pricing, retrieve the Feb. 26 MTGGoldfish deck page to capture the full 99-card list, sample mana base, and meta tags; fetch the full Draftsim article for the complete instant package and publication date; and pull the thetylerbucks Reddit thread to confirm the $65 list and timestamp. Given the table’s January 23 through February 27 entries and the extreme tabletop price spread, expect further submissions and price revisions as the community refines Azula builds.
