Each card in the deck has been selected such that with the proper printings, the cards can be arranged with collector numbers sequentially from 1 to 100. The colors have been well balanced as well. The one outlier of complete cycles is Yidris.
There was not a truly Sultai card within the remaining numbers after I selected the lands, so Necravolver takes that spot with its Sultai color identity.
There are 40 lands, 10 Ally colored cards, 10 Enemy colored cards, 10 Shard colored cards, 5 Wedge colored cards, 15 Mono-colored cards, 6 Colorless Cards, 3 Five-color cards, and 1 4-color card.
The lands consist of the 10 fetch lands, the 10 shock lands, the 10 filter lands, and 2 basics of each color. The basics sandwich the dual lands, with 1 basic of each type before and after them, in WUBRG order when sorted by collector number. The mono colored cards, when sorted by collector number form a triple WUBRG pattern. Due to the limited number of multicolored cards, none of the other cards follow any particular pattern when sorted by collector number.
Some use of the online only sets "You Make the Cube" and "Legendary Cube" was necessary in order to make the numbers work as desired. Other sets I could not have the correct art for display here are the "M19 Standard Showdown" basic lands and a couple cards from "Duel Deck: Mirrodin Pure vs New Phyrexia".
At this point the deck is simply a proof of concept. I can make no claims as to how well it will perform.
