I didnt like the arrangement diagram, but for different reasons. Since we are choosing our guild up front, we should be giving those cards priority when sorting the contents of our packs.
For example, I am going to play Selesnya (G/W). The first thing I am going to do is put all of the following in one pile:
- all the mono-green cards
- all the mono-white cards
- all the green hybrid cards
- all the white hybrid cards
- all the green & white cards
- all the artifacts
- all the lands that produce green & white mana, and the lands that produce colorless mana
Then I will have two other piles, one with:
- all the white & blue cards
- all the mono-blue cards
- all the blue hybrid cards
- all the lands that produce white & blue mana
And another with:
- all the green & black cards
- all the mono-black cards
- all the black hybrid cards
- all the lands that produce green & black mana
All the rest of the cards will be put into two further piles, one with:
- all the red & blue cards
- all the lands that produce red & blue mana
And one with:
- all the black & red cards
- all the lands that produce black & red mana
With all the mono-red cards between these last two piles.

This will help me decide what color combination I want to play.
