There's no way to be sure gold cards will be printed in Odyssey and its expansions. But I suspect they will be based on the card John Finkel submitted for the Vendetta expansion. His original card, Wrath of Leknif, was a "better than Wrath of God" Wrath of God, so R&D made him submit a new card, which is:
Dark Elfkin
1UB
2/3
Whenever Dark Elfkin deals combat damage to an opponent, you draw a card.
plus EITHER
U: Dark Elfkin can't be the target of spells or abilities.
B: Dark Elfkin can't be blocked except by black creatures and artifact creatures.
OR
Dark Elfkin can't be blocked except by black creatures and artifact creatures.
Personally, I'm rather ambivalent about the card itself, but I was very happy to see that he submitted another gold card. I suspect R&D would have asked him to resubmit a non-gold card if there were to be no gold cards in Odyssey and its expansions.
The small number of Tempest/Stronghold gold cards aside, Weatherlight through Prophecy was a long stretch to go without gold cards, and while I'm sure post-Apocalypse expansions will have significantly fewer gold cards than the Invasion cycle expansions, it's nice to know they'll continue.
