Face of Fear

Description

Face of Fear, numbered 134, is a distinct Uncommon card from the 2001 Odyssey expansion in the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Designed by artist Thomas M. Baxa, this black creature card features a mana cost of five generic mana and one black mana, resulting in a mana value of six. As a Horror, it brings a unique thematic element to collectors focusing on the Odyssey set's creature types. The card's primary ability allows players to discard a card to grant it fear until the end of turn. This mechanic is particularly valuable in formats where opponents lack black creatures or artifact creatures to block it, offering strategic depth for deck builders. Collectors often seek this card to complete their Odyssey base set, as it represents a classic example of black mana strategy from that era. The product identity is firmly rooted in the Odyssey set's design language, making it a recognizable piece for enthusiasts of early 2000s TCG history. Its status as an Uncommon rarity makes it accessible for set completionists while maintaining a strong presence in the Odyssey collector community.
