Odric, Flippy Flappy Tactician
Boy, Odric, Lunarch Marshal sure can grant a lot of abilities! Here’s a look at the original design. We shaved a number of keywords after development raised concerns about “rules confusion”, “tournament time limits”, “shuffling nightmares”, and “how on earth would you even print this”. Take a look for yourself if you want to really flip out!

Introducing: Colour Philosophies: Green
In the tradition of Duel Decks, From the Vaults, and the Premium Deck Series, we have found yet another way to extract a few dollars from the collecting and casual crowd with our new deck series: Colour Philosophies!
The colour philsophies decks will be a series of 5 decks showcasing the strengths of each of the 5 colours of Magic! We begin with Green:
Green! The colour of the Forest. Green creatures have largely evolved to soar above the treetops, which is why green has almost no non-flying creatures. Although green has some powerful fliers (Like Unyaro Bees and Jugan, the Rising Star), the main strength of Green are in it’s powerful direct damage arsenal. Green’s deadly damage spells are unrivaled in Magic. From staples like Hornet Sting and Unyaro Bee Sting, to sweepers like Sandstorm and devastating spells like Storm Seeker.
Colour Philosophies: Green
Colour Philosophies: Green will be available on November 27th, 2010.

Great Designer Search 2: Week 3
Hello and Welcome to Week 3 of The Great Designer Search 2, where we crush the dreams of all but one aspiring Magic Card designer.
Firstly, congratulations to Brandi, Kandi, Shaniq’a, James L and James L who made it through last week’s Design a Rare Cycle challenge. Unfortunately that challenge saw the end of Steve whose cycle was the weakest of the 6 we saw:
Now, on to this week’s challenge. A good measure of a set is the number of packs of the set that we sell which is why this week we’re asking you to design a cycle of ten Mythic dual lands.
To start you on your way, feel free to read my articles from Land Week, Dual Land Week, Allied Dual Week, Enemy Dual Week, How to Design Dual Lands Week, Dueling Land Week, Dual Land Week 2: Simba’s Pride, Mythic Week, Money-Gouging Week and of course, Elegence.
