I'm pulling my driveway. We all know what that means. It's time for their drive to work.

Okay, so last time I started talking about War of the Spark. So this time, I'm going to continue.

I'm up to B. So I got some more to talk about. Okay, so this time I'm going to start by talking about a cycle.

The bond cycle. So there's bond of discipline, bond of flourishing, bond of insight,

bond of passion, and bond of revival. So let me explain what all of them are, and then I'll talk

about the bond cycle. So bond of discipline, oh, actually, let me describe the bond cycle,

then I'll walk you through each of them

and explain how it works. So one of the things that we were trying to do in War the Spark is,

now, yes, it's a Plainswalker War. All the Plainswalkers are fighting, but they're not the only ones

fighting the war. The Ravnikans are fighting the war. This is, the war takes place on Ravnika.

And so we wanted the guilds to be

involved. And one of the things we were looking to do in War of the Spark is what are things that we

can't do in a traditional Ravnika set, in a guild set that we could do here? How do we make this feel

different? And one of the things that we realized was, look,

they're having a war, Rabnika, the city itself is at stake. Well, clearly the people of Rabinika,

the guilds of Rabnika would fight. And not only would they fight, but they'd fight together.

So the idea was, this might be an interesting opportunity to demonstrate the guilds working together

because that is something you don't normally get a C.

So the challenge was we wanted to communicate the guilds fighting together.

How do we do that?

How do we communicate the guilds fighting together?

And that was the challenge.
