This review is from: Magic: The Gathering -- The Offical Guide to Tempest: Cards, Strategies, and Techniques (Paperback)

This book was superbly illustrated and organized. It listed and evaluated every card for both sealed deck and tournament play. This was very helpful for myself, only an average player. However, I wish that it had included more overall combo techniques and discussed some of the trends and changes in deckbuilding schemes which Tempest unleased on the tournament level of play. This would have been helpful for evaluating Tempest cards in relation to previous expansions.
