I know nothing about ATLA (Well, I've heard about it) but I would have completely bought that it was a very real sport in the universe XD I loved the concept ! And the reunion/sneaking in the palace ! Loved the art, and I laughed so hard at the reaction to see Kageyama as Prince XD They're riots and I love that about them. Thanks you for this peak in the ALTA Universe !

This was really wonderful! The action through the two games was very intense; it really felt like being right in the middle of the game. I absolutely love ATLA so setting it in that universe was so much fun, and I think you did a great job picking the bending abilities for Kageyama, Yamaguchi, and Tsukishima. The art was incredibly gorgeous. And keybending sounds like a super fun sport! Thank you so much for this fun entry!

wow! this MR has left me speechless!!! excuse me while I try to put my thoughts into words :x

the execution was amazing & i love ATLA so this AU was right up my alley! the keybending idea was brilliant and interesting imo *‧.₊˚*੭*ˊᵕˋ੭.* i loved the tone of writing! the action/sports scenes carried themselves well and I loved little details that made me laugh like Yamaguchi being a 'tsukishima whisperer' XD the plot twist near the end!! made me go "OMG!!"

the art was very detailed and I loved the colours/shading!! i also loved their expressions in both art pieces; it brings so much life to the characters and I can totally imagine the situation!! (人´◡` ♡*)ﾟ

thank you for sharing this fantastic MR!!!

An Avatar AU was such a great idea for this prompt! The artwork at the beginning was stunning, and I felt myself really enjoying the concept of Yamaguchi as an Earthbender. The tension within the action scenes was amazing! Thank you for the amazing entry :]

Wow, this was a really great one! I'm a big fan of ATLA myself, so when it came to reading this, I found myself hanging onto every single word. The idea for 'keybending' is also really interesting. Thank you for writing and drawing this!

Starting the work off with a dynamic piece of art like you guys chose to do really added a level of intensity that I was not anticipating. It's a really well-written entry, and I enjoyed the time-skips. The dialogue, too, was really in character and fitting for the situations the characters found themselves in. Thank you for writing!
