The latest Magic expansion set, Oath of the Gatewatch (OGW), will be released on January 22. OGW is the follow-up to Battle for Zendikar, continuing the story of Zendikar with a smaller set of 180 cards, including a new buddy for the Eldrazi titan Ulamog: Kozilek, the Great Distortion. Here he is in all his many-tentacled glory:
Ahead of the official OGW release there's also a bunch of prerelease events on January 16 and 17—this coming weekend—at your local game shop. If you haven't played Magic in a while, or you just want a taste of the new set before buying a box of cards (or two), the mega-casual prerelease events (which cost about £20/$30) are the perfect opportunity to dip your toes in.
And now, without further ado, read on for our review of Oath of the Gatewatch. We've been playing it for the past week, so we have lots to say about the themes and mechanics of the new set, as well as some thoughts on how some new cards might factor into Constructed formats.
