037: Orggs!

... all four of them.

Today we're reviewing every single Orgg ever printed. Weirdly this iconic creature type got a lot of love in Magic's first decade—even a TV commercial!—yet we haven't seen a new one printed in over 20 years. In today's episode we talk Orgg lore, such as it is, competitive play history, cool combos, and art. Our last card is an all-time nostalgic fave for Austin, so buckle up for some half-remembered childhood misplays.
