    With the prerelease weekend over with, just want to know what everyone thinks of guildpact. the first thing is that Orzhov seems to be the best of the three guilds, i drafted a ridiculous Orzhov deck in a side event and went all the way for the win. Gruul has some solid creatures but is a bit light on removal overall. Izzet has a poor creature base and has problems dealing with large creatures. That said, i made two fairly good G/R/U decks over the weekend with lots of pingers and bloodthirst creatures to utilize their synergy and was suitably impressed. Best limited commons and uncommons for limited in the set IMHO:

    Orzhov:
    Plagued Rusalka
    Mourning Thrull
    Shadow Lance
    Shrieking GRotesque
    Ghost Warden
    Ostiary Thrull
    Droning Bureaucrats
    Revenant Patriarch
    Pillory of the Sleepless
    Douse in GLoom
    Agent of Masks
    Daggerclaw Imp
    MOrtify
    Smogsteed Rider
    Souls of the Faultless
    Blind Hunter
    Harrier Griffin

    Gruul
    Burning-Tree Bloodscale
    Ghor-Clan Savage
    GRistleback
    Predatory Focus
    Savage Twister
    Scab-Clan Mauler
    Streetbreaker Wurm
    Wildsize
    Rabble-Rouser
    Tin-Street Hooligan

    Izzet
    Electrolyze
    Gelectrode
    Goblin Flectomancer
    Hypervolt Grasp
    Leap of Flame
    Ogre Savant
    Pyromatics
    Wee Dragonauts
    Infiltrator's Magemark
    Repeal
    Steamcore Weird
    Stratozeppelid
    Torch Drake
