Custom Ravnica Block ending with The Battle of Ravnica (need help)

in Custom Card Sets
Hi everyone, Urtar 370 here. For the past few months, I have been working on a three set Ravnica block on Magic Set Editor. The first two sets are similar to most other Ravnica sets, five guilds in each. In the first, Ravnica in Danger, there are Orzhov, Rakdos, Izzet, Selesnya, and Simic. The second set has Gruul, Azorius, Boros, Golgari, and Dimir.

My guild mechanics:
Ravnica in Danger
Orzhov: Greed - an effect that triggers every time you gain life.
Rakdos - Madness
Izzet - Richochet X- If this spell would be put into a graveyard from anywhere except from this ability, exile it instead. You may cast this spell from exile by paying X life instead of any other costs. When you do, put it into your graveyard.
Simic - Breed X and Experiment - When you cast a breed spell, put X +1/+1 counters on an experiment creature you control, or create a token that's a copy of an experiment creature you control, except it has base power and toughness X/X.
Selesnya - Populate

Untitled (currently) second set:
Gruul: Raging X: When this creature enters the battlefield, choose one: Put X +1/+1 counters on it, or it deals X damage to target creature or planeswalker.
Boros: Dash
Azorius: Undecided
Golgari: Undecided
Dimir: Undecided

As you can notice, I need a name for the second set, as well as mechanics for Azorius, Golgari, Dimir. If anyone has any ideas, can they please post them. Also, if anyone has a card for either set using one of the mechanics I posted above, please post them, and I may include a similar card in my set. I will make all the cards for the first set on this platform as well on a new account, MTG Setsmith370.

Also, the third set is the most daring project I have ever worked on. It will be a huge set with at least 500 cards. It will be in an alternate universe where Bolas cast a mind control spell on the Gatewatch during their battle on Amonkhet, completely disregarding the story of all sets since Hour of Devastation. Bolas has the Gatewatch follow his schemes. Jace frees Emrakul from the moon on Innistrad and Nissa combines the corpses of Ulamog and Kozilek into a new Eldrazi Titan, Uzilek. A new planeswalker team will take oaths to protect the Multiverse from Bolas's schemes with the Gatewatch. This team will consist at the start of Ajani, Tamiyo, Sorin, Garruk, and a custom Sliver planeswalker of mine from my Origins set, Ess Nelek, though more walkers will join later. It will have all ten guilds, with all the guild mechanics ever in a Ravnica set, including the ones from Ravnica In Danger and the untitled set. It will also have a large planeswalker theme with also several planeswalker oaths. There will be planeswalkers at every rarity, as well as Eldrazi. If anyone has any card ideas, or any other ideas, please post them. Thank You.

    Me likey. I am a Dimir boy, so this would be a very exciting project for me to work on. But first, @urtar370, I have a few questions.

    1. Would you think it possible to share a link with this set you speak of, so I may look at the skeleton you are setting up for this?

    2. I really like the Izzet mechanic of Ricochet, but I also see hidden potential in it. This would, theoretically work if you mill yourself to put it in your graveyard, yes? Then do we set up a self-mill theme for Izzet? How would that interact with Dimir?

    3. Speaking of Dimir, do you want to keep a mill theme for them? Or perhaps, something else entirely?

    Other than that, I would very much like to participate, and will be thinking of mechanics for the three remaining guilds.

    Maybe we can do the Bonds with different pairs of guild, a cycle in every set?

    I might have an idea for Golgari. This is akin to the Undergrowth mechanic featured in Guilds of Ravnica, but with a twist. Let me introduce:
    FESTER

    Fester - At the beginning of your upkeep, if this and at least X other creatures are in your graveyard, {effect}.

    Like, summoning fungi and saprolings to feed on this rotting corpse, or gaining you life through becoming plants, or giving creatures -1/-1 by decomposing into toxins, many possibilities.

    I would also very much like to help out with the Dimir mechanic, but we need to decide the direction to go with the guild in general.

    Also, are the guildmasters all going to be the same, or will this timeline have others?

    Hero KP I will eventually post all the cards on a different account on this site. I put that account name in the original post. Since Dimir and Golgari are in the same set, it could be cool to have the Dimir mechanic be about self milling. Izzet could have a self mill theme too, although Izzet and Dimir are not in the same set, aside from the War set, but in the War set it would be fun to draft them together. What should I name the second set? By the way I wasn't very specific, all the sets are in the alternate universe disregarding every set's story after Hour of Devastation. Fester looks really cool, I think I'll use it. The guild leaders I have made so far are Trostani, Rakdos, Niv-Mizzet, Obzedat (although I could consider using Orzhova instead), Zegana. How about for the first and second sets we use returning guildmasters, and for the third set we use new guildmasters?

    I just took photos of my guild leaders and am uploading them onto my Google Drive. I'll send you (and anyone else who wants it) a folder, but I need an email adress. Could you please tell me yours?
  • urtar370urtar370
    I also posted a card that uses self mill in Izzet that is similar to Laboratory Maniac.
  • urtar370urtar370
    I'm sorry if the photos are low quality, I took them with my phone.
  • urtar370urtar370
    Another thing I am doing is a cycle of large X spells like Sphinx's Revelation and Rakdos's Return. Rakdos's Return is reprinted in the first set, and I am pretty sure that the former will be in the second set. (I haven't worked on the second set much yet)

    Also something you guys should know, in my sets I have made Cycling evergreen, so we can use it in these sets.

    As a general response to everything you said:
    Nice!

    Will be sending my email in PM
  • urtar370urtar370
    I sent you a folder with the files. You need to sign into a Google account.
  • urtar370urtar370
    something happened that is preventing me from sharing with you, I'll try to fix it.
