Here's my pitch in progress for Ankh-Theb. I'm still deciding between two directions for the Pharoah Rare, and would appreciate input on that. Also, I'm still trying to figure out Red's role in this set. I see them as desert nomads, and currently I'm giving them the re-use of spells from the graveyard, and a "big-turn" gameplay shared with Red (see Viashino Flintmaster and Surge Summoner).
