Title: Challenge 5: Guilds of another world

Ravnica, one of the best sets ever, brought us the 10 guilds. while each guild was different is its ideology and function, the did have things in common. Each guild was only two colors and each has two legendary creatures associated with it, the guild leader and champion, for example, the golgri are BG with Sisters of stone death as the leader and Savara, queen of the golgri as the champion.

So what if the leader and the champion set up their guild somewhere else besides Ravnica..

Challenge: Build a Deck based around a guild's leader and champion

Rules

1) The deck must be 2 colors only, no third color anywhere,

2) The deck must contain 4 copies of both Ravinca Legendary Creatures associated with the colors chosen, ie. a BW deck must have 4 teysa and 4 ghost council

3) Both legends must have a noticable part in the deck, not just there because they need to be.

4) Since it is guild's of another world, and we don't want it to be to easy, Ravnica Block is banned, all other cards must be legacy legal.

Hope you all like this one. I think it would be interesting to try to get the legends to work together, some of them like szadak and circu pair easily, others like savra and the sisters will be harder to get to work together.

Also unless I hear otherwise this will be the last challenge, their doesn't seem to be alot of interest

This is a great challenge, the Ravinca Block is great.
