I want to apologize for the lateness of my report; I suspect it was Rizzo’s Bruce that made me dawdle. I could go on for six or seven pages about why I brought the deck that I did – but this is a prerelease, so instead I’ll just give you the deck that I built….
Only the very best (well, and the very mediocrest) for your perusal this week. And a graceful Break this Card is born!
At this point, I really just want to hang a heavy stone around my neck, wander over to the Morrison Bridge, and just end my misery. Sweet Jeebus, I’m turning into Vern.
I was going to predict what the flavor texts hold for the storyline. But upon reading the quotes in Odyssey, I found something new…
Why does John Rizzo lose? Why does he fail? A thought that might well mean something to everyone who plays Magic.
Wonder what blue looked like in Odyssey before it was finally restrained? Bennie manages to sneak out a document that shows what Randy originally designed…

Tony gets serious for a moment about tragedy – and then returns to form for his nominations on the best and worst Odyssey cards.
Twenty-four characters died in the Apocalypse. As usual, Daniel brings you up to date on the storylines so you can see what’s happening… Or who WAS happening.
When looking over a new set, it pays to mine for gold in broad terms. Are there synergies between old cards and new themes?
This set is going to take a while to break open. But let’s take a look at eight things about Odyssey that you need to know.
Muddy pictures and a contest (with no prize) to name Rizzo’s amazing ferret puppet sidekick. Oh, and he bashes pros again. What a surprise.
I love block rotations. W hat cards will I miss, what mechanics will we see the back of, and what cards didn’t see the play they were supposed to?
