Character Background
Fire Lord Azula invites a Grixis spellslinger approach that blends tempo and value: attack with a 4/4 that actually produces {R}{R} (Firebending 2) and then cast spells during combat to copy them, turning cheap burn, cantrips, and creature plays into exponential advantage. Best used in an evasive, pressure-oriented deck that wants to win through incremental combat damage plus doubled spells—think tempo with a spellslinger twist rather than pure control. Build-around tips: include low-cost instants and cantrips (Opt, Lightning Bolt, Shock, Serum Visions), Young Pyromancer for token synergies (copying a creature spell creates an immediate token copy), and ways to give Azula evasion or repeat attacks (Swiftfoot Boots, Rogue’s Passage, unblockable effects). Also consider Vedalken Orrery or Quicken to let non-instant spells be cast while she’s attacking. Be mindful the generated {R}{R} only lasts until end of combat, so sequence: attack, generate red mana, then spend it to copy spells and close the game.
