  • posted a message on Help creating the perfect Alara Shards and Tarkir Clans Kits
    Hi there! First post in this forum. First of all, sorry for any writing mistakes. English is not my mother tongue.

    BTW, I've already posted this in other sites, but I see this is a very active community, so I guess I can get the help I need:

    I own every Ravnica Guild Kit and I find them the perfect product for casual Magic: Decks that are fun, balanced and, above all, highly thematic.

    But I love Alara and Tarkir too, and I've been looking for Shard and Clan kits balanced against the Guild Kits for months now. I just want them to have the same structure: Mostly singleton, with some duplicate cards, and playsets of thematic non-basic lands. All the cards have to be mostly for the same block (Alara and Tarkir, of course), but there can be some cards from other blocks if they are thematically appropriate (from the same plane or shard). The most important rule is that the decks have to be balanced against each other and against the Ravnica Guild Kits.

    I think I found what I wanted, almost perfectly:

    But, I have some minor issues:

    -The Temur deck only has 59 cards. I thought maybe 1 more Heir of the Wilds would be appropriate, but someone suggested Stubborn Denial in Reddit, which seems perfect.

    -I don't know what's the point of Memory Erosion in the Grixis Deck. No other card supports Mill, and it's clearly an Esper card.

    -The Alara Shard decks have some cards that are obviously part of another Shard.

    -I don't know what to think about Planeswalkers in two of the Tarkir decks.

    -Last but not least, I don't know if these decks are really balanced.

    So, with those decks in mind... any tweaks for making them "perfect"? Again, I don't want them to be competitive, just balanced, thematic and fun.

    Cheers!
