From the stream. There will be a preconstructed Guild Kit Deck per guild, if I understand that right. Each deck contains reprints from all Ravnica sets. Cards that come from old sets don't become standard legal. Some of them shown on stream. Look at their set symbols, sweet!
One question we didn't get to on stream was the MSRP on Guild Kits. They will be $19.99 for a 60-card deck, Guild Pin, Guild Sticker, Spindown, and, yes, tokens.
I so glad Ive been waiting to get an Aurelia, this art is sick and hopefully cheaper to get.

I get some think the Aurelia art is good but isnt it the same redundant pose of battle angel with one leg bent that is starting to get....uh...redundant.
Secondly these deck kits seem fairly powerful

STOP using "dude/bro" as a pejorative or insult. Grow up.

I will not rest until I get a Teysa, Orzhov Scion in the Orzhov kit. Maybe with new art, by which I am NOT trying to imply that her original art is at all bad... and I rather think that the Orzhov guild symbol will look REALLY good on those cards....
The guild symbols as set symbols are really nice. And these are precons? Ooh, I might have to pick some up. Hope the price isn't too high.

MTGS Wikia Article about "New World Order"
Every time I read a comment about "Well if this card had card draw/trample/haste/indestructible/hexproof/life gain...", I think "You're missing the point." They're armchair developer comments that fail to take into account the card's role in the greater Limited and Standard environment. No, it may not be as good as whatever card you're comparing it to. There's a reason for that. Not every burn spell is Lightning Bolt, nor does it need to be or should be.
PSA to everyone who keeps forgetting about the Reserved List:
You're on a website dedicated to talking about MtG. You're only a few keystrokes away from finding out what cards are on the Reserved List. You're also only a few keystrokes away from finding out why some cards on the Reserved List got foil printings in FtV, as Judge promos, or whatnot, as well as why that won't happen again. Stop doing this.
You know that card? That card we first banned in modern, then is legacy? We totally are re-printing it, now. Not when it was legal. Now. Hold still, while we lick delicious salt from your eyes.
Some decent reprints here. If the rest of the decks are good, I wouldn't mind picking some up. At the very least, I am a huge fan of the new Niv and Aurelia arts and happy that they finally brought back Niv Mizzet's flavor text.

I like this art a lot. The original was good as well but this one really pops.
Not much to speak of here outside of the Boros cards and getting a nice Voja token (now they just gotta give us a Kaldra token). Niv-Mizzet having that flavor text and new art is great, but man am I tired of seeing him get reprinted (7th printing now).
Char as one of the Izzet "rares" is pretty uninspiring. The Niv-Mizzet art is really good though, and Abrupt Decay and DRS are both pretty stellar reprints. Kinda wish we could see more of the Dimir reprints.
I love the reprints, but why Deathrite Shaman? He's banned in basically every competitive format he is potentially legal in and is proven to be a broken card. He isn't even showing up in standard...
Oh, this will be comedy gold if he is in standard again. I can see him being balanced in a more limited card pool so at least it would make some sense?
1. (Ravnica Allegiance): You can't keep a good esper control deck down... Or Wilderness Reclamation... or Gates...
2. (War of the Spark): Guys, I know what we need! We need a cycle of really idiotic flavor text victory cards! Jace's Triumph...
3. (War of the Spark): Lets make the format with control have even more control!

It was a non-factor in standard and actually pretty bad in both RTR block limited and EMA limited. Without fetchlands DRS sucks.
