Title: Favorite Guild, Why?
Post by: PyreheartMauler on May 16, 2013, 09:53:34 PM
Just wondering which guild is the favorite, and most powerful and what you guys think.

Mine is Gruul, I love aggro and you can pump your creatures and swing in for large amounts, always like strong decks. ;)

I love the golgori, the whole life and death cycle is a basic love in my life. An resurrecting from the grave is one of my favorite styles to play.

Selesnya, because of how well Convoke and Populate work with one another.

Rakdos!  Mostly just because my favorite colors (non-MtG) are red and black, and when I started playing, I used mono black and eventually started running {R}{B}.  I don't really care about the actual guild, tbh...

👈 Because it's just awesome, and it pairs well with rakdos and orzhov to form my favorite wedge

Simic. I think adding counters is pretty much the best mechanic ever. And control is super cool. And big beasties. And huge card advantage. And mana ramp. Sigh. What's not to love?

I have to agree with you.  I wish that wasn't so mama extensive like it has been on some cards.  What was the enchantment that had the {Arrest} effect in dragon maze.  Anyway, I love that card, although I wish it was {1}{G}{U}, instead of it's acual mana cost.  It would be a lot better.  I feel the same about {Plasma Capture}, one less mana, and it would be gold!

No love for izzet. My favorite guild is orzhov, I just love being able to win without getting my hands dirty.

Orzhov definitely - removal, gaining life, dealing damage while gaining life

I have two favourite guilds...;) Selesnya for its nature flavor and Azorius because I simply love control.. No wonder that I mostly play Bant...:D

Mine is Izzet. Mostly just for the overall flavor and crazy spell shenanigans

Boros for me. I didn't know much about Ravnica when this block started so I looked in who had the most Goblin love and chose based off of that.

Golgari. Black and green is my favorite color combination and the life and death cycle reflects well in the game. Graveyard, sacrificing, resurrection.. It's awesome fun to play!

Izzet-Mass Chaos on the feild!!!!
My favorite because I enjoy combining burn and counter.And Izzet is just that!

I personally like Izzet (non-card wise) but card-wise I love Dimir and Boros. Dunno, just seem really powerful.

Golgari for sure... Gotta love self milling only to return them to life for cheap...

Selesnya

Because the sigil looks very similar to my Scottish family crest.

Dimir and Azorius, because using either combination you can make a legit control deck without adding a 3rd color.

Rakdos cause I've read the secretist and lord rakdos pwns.

I'm torn between Gruul and Boros. I love being the aggressor. Gruul is beefy aggressive creatures. Boros is efficient aggressive creatures. In a perfect world where I didn't have to pick 2 colors, I say Naya!!! But if pushed to pick, I would lean towards Boros.

Izzet- like to burn and counter also like that it can be unpredictable. I went to the pre release tourney and took 7th...with 1 loss. The tourney took to long so they used some ass backwards way of picking 2nd-8th...which if I'm being honest was bs bc my only loss was to the guy that went undefeated but the guys that took 3rd 4th and 6th all lost to me. Make sense? I think not. It was slanted in the favor of their regular players so I got hosed.
