Orgg is a red creature type used for cards that depict a Dominarian race of half-breeds between Orcs and Ogres.
Description
Orggs have two pairs of arms. They are extremely powerful creatures, but also utterly dumb. They can be trained.[2]
The first card to bear the type was Orgg in Fallen Empires.
Storyline
On Sarpadia, Orggs were used in the war against Icatia by the goblin-orc alliance. Reod Dai killed one of them.[3]
Orggs are also known to exist on Otaria. It is possible that they were created by the Cabal to fight in their pits.
Trivia
- An Orgg played a role in a commercial for Portal, taking on "Bob from Accounting".[4]
- Twisted Experiment (Urza's Destiny) appears to show the creation of an Orgg by Gatha.
- Some Orggs were typed as Beasts in their first printings, before the type returned.
- Trained Orgg and Vizzerdrix were once considered "booster ruiners" by the community.[citation needed] Yet today, both cards are coveted in foil versions.
