HOW TO VOTE ON SHARDS/WEDGES

For the first time, we'll vote on the ten three-color combinations for the Power Rankings project. Due to the limited number of options, it was decided a Top 3 is the best option for now, for a total of 30 cards per vote.

Please vote on the Shards and Wedges according to the following order: Esper (WUB), Grixis (UBR), Jund (BRG), Naya (RGW), Bant (GWU); Abzan WBG), Jeskai (URW), Sultai (BGU), Mardu (RWB) and Temur (GUR).

WHAT CARDS GO HERE? AND WHAT CARDS ARE EXCLUDED?

Like for the guilds, the rule on this voting is to look at a card's costs and requirements. I'll use different shards or wedges in each example as needed to get enough examples:
* Three-colored 'gold', 'hybrid' and 'split' cards. Examples for Bant: Empyrial Archangel, Bant Sureblade, Beck // Call.
* Monocolored cards with some kind of cost or requirement for the other two colors, or that produces mana of the other colors. This includes costs of mana (regular or hybrid) and abilities requiring or rewarding you for having cards of both other colors or lands with the other colors' basic land types. Examples for Naya: Thornscape Battlemage, Wild Nacatl, Druid of the Anima, Cliffrunner Behemoth, Thornscape Familiar. Examples for Temur: Yasova Dragonclaw, Rattleclaw Mystic, Temur Runemark.
* Nonland colorless cards that follow the same rules as above - producing mana of both colors, or requiring/rewarding cards of both colors or lands with both basic types. For Grixis: Gem of Becoming, Obelisk of Grixis.
* No current land card qualifies to be voted here. The ALA/KTK Trilands and Murmuring Bosk fall under the LAND voting group, already voted.

SHARDS AND WEDGES VOTING IS NOW OPEN!

I'll vote first to show exactly how to.

Some of these combinations have 1 card worth cubing... Like any bant card after Noble hierarch.

I guess I should just close this now. Only 12 votes but it's not like this one will get anything relevant in the next 24 hours. Let's go to the big one already.
