Changing the Guilds format in my 360 a bit to have 3 non-land cards and 3 land cards. Two of the lands for each guild are going to be Shocks and Fetches, with the remaining one being a flex slot.
With the lands, for WG I'd run Horizon Canopy over both the two you list. If that isn't in the budget, I prefer Wildwood. I use the Vent over the Courtyard in Orzhov in my cube.

Orzhov I'm particularly struggling with since WB tends to be quite hungry for 1BB or 1WW on turn 3 and would love to hear some input from others.
Horizon Canopy is a super sweet land, I would highly recommend that for 3rd place slot, especially if you have crucible of worlds or ramunap excavator.
Shambling vent is probably the best of the new man lands and I would play that over concealed courtyard (and over the WB filter land which would be my next choice after shambling vent).
Good call on the Filter land; I forgot about that one for WB. Horizon Canopy is really cool and if I had one I would use it but it is out of my price range for the moment so I'm sorta stuck with the Stirring Wildwood or the Razorverge Thicket.

In a 360 cube I expect your density of mana elves to pretty high, so id likely go with the razorverge thicket. Most GW decks tend to be mana elf centric, so having untapped turn 1 mana likely very important.
GW not going to be able to grind with the blue decks anyway, so i'd focus on giving them explosive power -> disruption.
I'd cut Soltari Trooper first by a mile; after that, maybe Precinct Captain for the double white cost, or Kor Skyfisher, which shines in a few builds but feels very marginal outside of them.
For me, it's Keldon Marauders > Hellspark Elemental > War-Name Aspirant > Bloodrage Brawler. But I'm not sure I'd play any of them at 540. Red has produced some interesting two-drops over the last few sets, including Dire Fleet Daredevil, Dismissive Pyromancer, and Goblin Cratermaker, all of which I'd run over any of the listed cards. I still have Keldon Marauders in my cube at 720, but it does show its age a bit. I'm not 100% certain it's better than, say, Viashino Pyromancer.
And how many of these should I have in a 500ish powered cube? I'm currently only running Cursed Scroll but I'm thinking about adding more support for aggro decks. Cubetutor link of my cube: http://www.cubetutor.com/viewcube/116289
Hymn > Twist in unpowered (assuming no Sol Ring, Mana Vault, Mana Crypt etc. aswell).
And for the colorless aggro cards, I'd say Cursed Scroll > Ankh of Mishra = Black Vise - and follow up with a question: where do you think Fleetwheel Cruiser fits in to this?

Struggling a bit with which one to play for Selesnya and Orzhov.
Given what I have, for Selesnya I'm considering between Razorverge Thicket and Stirring Wildwood
and for Orzhov Concealed Courtyard and Shambling Vent
Orzhov I'm particularly struggling with since WB tends to be quite hungry for 1BB or 1WW on turn 3 and would love to hear some input from others.
With the lands, for WG I'd run Horizon Canopy over both the two you list. If that isn't in the budget, I prefer Wildwood. I use the Vent over the Courtyard in Orzhov in my cube.
Cheers,

I want to cut one or two white 2-drops from my 540 unpowered cube; which of these do you think are weakest?
This is what I'm currently running:
Also how would you rank these four?
I can probably only run one or two of these. I do run Najeela, so warrior synergies are semi-relevant.
For me, it's Keldon Marauders > Hellspark Elemental > War-Name Aspirant > Bloodrage Brawler. But I'm not sure I'd play any of them at 540. Red has produced some interesting two-drops over the last few sets, including Dire Fleet Daredevil, Dismissive Pyromancer, and Goblin Cratermaker, all of which I'd run over any of the listed cards.

I've been testing Brawler and it's been okay. But it won't last forever.

Lapse > Daze >> Denial
All three are legitimately great though.
