A Gruul combo I made previously that hasn't really been looked at too frequently it seems. I'll try to come up with a couple of new ones as well.

An honorable mention goes to @Gelectrode. Your card seemed to fit the concept of the gruul, though it seemed overpowered. If anything I would raise the mana cost by {1}.
3rd place goes to @Latinas! I liked the idea of your card. It hinted at some of the story of Ravnica. However, It seemed somewhat overpowered in my opinion.
2nd place goes to @Faiths_Guide! I quite liked this combination of cards. The only drawback I can see is that this is pretty land-dependent, which isn't really that bad.
1st place goes to @leo5873! These two cards really seemed to fit the gruul. The combination of art and flavor really got me, an the mechanics really fit the theme.
I think the next challenge will be better, as it is a guild that more people appreciate, or so I would think.
Thanks @Drigglesnork
Could you pick 4 from here:
