Rationale
6cmc 5/5 that creates X 1/1 Ally tokens on ETB or attack, where X equals tapped artifacts and/or creatures you control. The token output scales heavily with how many permanents you have tapped — making it a strong follow-up to a combat step or alongside tap-outlet synergies, but it requires a board presence to be impactful. Signature in tokens-go-wide and wide-aggro shells that can flood the board before attacking with Aang and Katara to get full value on the trigger.
Learnings (3)
The token count counts tapped artifacts AND creatures at the moment the trigger resolves — swinging with a wide board before Aang and Katara attacks means those same creatures count toward X, allowing a second wave of tokens in the same combat step.

The ETB trigger fires even if Aang and Katara is immediately removed, so you can still get value from the tokens even without connecting in combat — but you must have tapped permanents already at the time of resolution.

The tokens are typed as Ally, not Human, so Aang and Katara works better in Ally tribal synergy shells than pure Human tribal despite having the Human subtype itself.
