@thewanderer with a couple of exceptions the whole collection is excellent in terms of mechanics and every card has awesome flavor. Very good job.
So, @Scott_Anderson, it's not going too good.
Have you thought up a premise or a setting so far? That can help spur your imagination.
So the group with the Esper colors is called the Triumvirate who is led by this person who is pretty much three people at the same time and I don't know how that happened but hey this is magic I guess.
The Triumvirate is just trying to control everything. Simple. They are like a combination of the Orzhov, Dimir and a evil version of the Azorius.
Only thing standing in their way is...
The Primal Ones
They are the group with Gruul colors. They are alot like the Gruul (Does'nt need explaining) but their shamans, clerics and whatnot are alot like the Selesyna. They are trying to maintain the small amount of wilderness left and also trying to take the rest back.
So the Triumvirate and Primal Ones are constantly fighting.
Simple. That's the story for my part of the set.
Are there any main characters? Stuff for Legend cards and/or planeswalkers?
I can create the essential characters

Your name card is a marvelous concept and especially so since you’re working with curses as a central theme!
The ability to tutor repeatedly is already very strong. Is it possible that it could either be: limited to that one creature, rather than any creature while he’s out; or that the creature has to do combat to a player or player/planeswalker? This gives the defender a chance to stop it, even if it’s just a chump block.
Naya v Dimir @DrakeGladis
Grixis v Selesnya @Ranshi
Esper v Gruul @WarriorCatInAhat
Bant v Rakdos @AxNoodle
Jund v Azorius @Leaf_Juggernaut
Sultai v Boros @Scott_Anderson
Abzan v Izzet @TheWanderer
Temur v Orzhov @shadow123
Jeskai v Golgari @IzItTru
Mardu v Simic @Bowler218
I’ve got almost all of the multicolor cards done. I’m doing Jeskai Survivors vs Golgari Zombies.
I’ve gotten distracted from it lately but I’ll get back to it soon.
As far as story goes, that's my weak point. But once the cards are finished, I'll find a way to tie them in. Just a loose story for them.
I can come up with the story...
Also I don't really have alot of time to make the actual cards.
Part of me being able to story is that I have advanced creative writing, which focuses on long plot arcs, unifying themes, etc. However, me making cards during that time is both impossible and forbidden.
TL;DR, thanks, but I have that bit covered @EnvyReaper
Just keep thinking and make some cards when it feels right.
I think you should just give Gruul vs. Esper to someone else. I don't have many card ideas, and I don't have time to make them.
