Apparently this is going to become a running theme with me, because (thanks to a request on Reddit), I have made one Commander deck for each of the Ravnica guilds using only cards from Ravnica: City of Guilds, Dissension, Guildpact, Return to Ravnica, Gatecrash, and Dragon's Maze.

Here are the rules for each deck:1. Have all four Legendary creatures from both the original block and RTR block. You can use them as alternate Commanders, if you wish.2. Have all available lands across both blocks.3. Use both Guildmages, all mana rocks, and each guild's Fuse spell.

Of note, there's probably too many lands (39 in each of them; I did some research and came up with that number, which means I need to do some revisions to my other decks...). Also, while creating these, I came up with a special multiplayer format. There's a separate "Gate" deck, and I'll use that to explore my thoughts about a few interesting (though likely disturbingly long) ways to play with these outside of a free-for-all, assuming you can line up 10 total players for an afternoon and get all of these cards (both of which are a bit of an ask).

This Orzhov deck is focused on spirits and lifegain/extort triggers. It's tough to pick between Obzedat, Ghost Council (reasonable/fair Commander) or Teysa, Envoy of Ghosts (total blowout Commander), but I went with Teysa because there's still enough burn across the other decks to render her ineffective.
