[QUOTE="gyor, post: 7761441, member: 6670153"] Guiildmaster's Guide to Ravnica is set before the current Ravnica block of sets, but after the previous one. For Rakdos the working class flavour it started out with got deemphasized in favor of psycho carnival flavour/entertainers. Both will likely be mentioned in GGR, but the focus will be on the entertainers and dark magic practicianers. Boros Wojeks seem to almost have been displaced by Azorous Arresters to some degree, but they appear to still be around. For the Boros the focus has been mostly on the military and Angels, with Wojeks not getting much attention. Still I'll be surprised with Wojek's don't get mentioned at all. Perhaps it was partly because the Wojeks experienced such high casualties. The Gateless (those without a guild) have their own police force, the Haazda, more for outside Ravnica Capital. The Ledev kind of function as a highway patrol. The Boros themselves seem to be acting more like a Paramilitary and Military organization. Simic now have a more aquatic them, with Merfolk becoming dominate. They control access to the Oceans. So they are biotech magic, but also control trade with the Oceans. That could make them major competitors for food production with the Golgori, what would most people prefer, rot grown food or Simic sea food? Izzet is still Izzet. Dimir stopped being a secret after the first guildpact. Now they have a front as more benign information brokers, librarians, couriers, and so on. Orzhov is weird. It's like they mashed every medevil social class into a single guild. People compare them to the mob, but it's more like a feudal society in function. They are the church, the aristocrats, the merchants, and the peasants/surfs, all tried together by religion (but a dark twisted vice ridden version, with undead and thrills) and business into a single guild. No King however, instead a ghost council at the top. Golgori are still basically Golgori. Gruul are still much the same. Azorous got taken over by a wise Sphinx, Isperia, and seem to do most of the policing now. Selysnia is no longer ruled Directly by Mat'selsynia, who is now more a God figure. It's ruled by a Trio of Dryads that fused together with wood. And the Guild Pact which was a magical written document was destroyed and eventually the none magical one didn't work out so ancient magic made a Planeswalker named Jace Beleren the living guild pact (basically he is both magically enforced treaty, constitution and it's sole judge). .
