Title: The Guilds
Post by: Fenster on April 24, 2012, 07:00:51 AM
What has changed in Ravnica?
Will they be changed?
Unlikely alliances?
Wich ones will be out first?
We all know that all the guilds didnt arrive at the same set so wich guilds will be first? Izzet seems inevitable now with good ol Niv getting a cameo apperance.
Will we see the same setups but in a different order? (Set wise i mean)
Contestants* for favorites seem to be Izzet and Orzhov, followed by Dimir. But after that it sort of dims down into an equal fanbase. Now correct all of what i've written if you will! More speculations on the structure of the New Ravnica!

{W}{U} - Azorius: Bureaucracy, taxing, Forecast
{U}{B} - Dimir (secret underground group): Secret control, Transfigure
{B}{R} - Rakdos: Mayem, Reckless, Hellbent
{R}{G} - Gruul: Big Beats, Bloodthirst
{G}{W} - Selensnya: Unity & Harmony, Tokens, Convoke
{W}{B} - Orzhov: Bleeding, ghosts, Haunt
{U}{R} - Izzet: Inventors, Mad Scientists, Replicate
{B}{G} - Golgari: Cycle of Life, Dredge
{R}{W} - Boros: Righteous Military, Radiance
{U}{G} - Simic: Biological Scientists, Graft

Bleeding is slowly killing your opponent by draining them of life. See {Agent of Masks}.

Kinda funny how none of this is in the fluff.

I was mostly referring to how the guilds play.  Of you'd like to give a comparable summary of the flavor of each guild "fluff-wise", I'm all eyes. 👀

So, is that symbol in the text box the boros guild symbol?  I was out of mtg for all this guild stuff.  It's all new to me.
