Feel free to give me any suggestions of how to improve this cube.

This cube was built to take advantage of all 5 colors in Magic. Each color has 80 cards with 4-5 tribes, including 50+ gold cards in all 10 of the two color Guild pairs. The color pairing of tribes allows for more interaction among tribes. This helps with not having to stick with just one tribe in a draft, but instead using other tribes that share a single color or a one of the two colors of a Guild pair.
