[pre-Primer] AIR / BAI
All-In Red (AIR) and Boros All-In (BAI) are the deck(s) I'm looking to play at states. Finishing up this standard playing AIR, I've noticed that it's fast enough to even beat midrange decks, which feels kinda' broken. That is, midrange strategies prey on aggressive strategies by quickly outclassing ...

Ham, I'd love to help develop this deck. I'll likely be running RDW or Boros Blitz at States to prey on scryland decks, but once the metagame stabilizes, I'll happily join this train (provided it sounds reasonable). RE: black god; that does sound reasonable, but not sure if it's good. Probably bette...

If you can trade with their creature, then it's worth the life loss. Otherwise, it doesn't matter which one-drop you had, because you shouldn't be throwing away dudes anyways. With Firefist Striker and Goblin Shortcutter, we should find plenty of ways to force this guy through midrange. Against cont...

You should commit to a game plan, IMO. There isn't much ramping to consider except for from 3 to 5 in the form of a keyrune, but that doesn't mean you want to downsize your deck. Specifically, I think Rakdos Cackler's an absolute no-go, Ash Zealot's a contender, but likely still too small. Mizzium M...

The new lands are balanced, although I don't like them for two reasons: (1) in aggro decks (the decks I play), the loss of tempo is unwelcome, and (2) 3-color decks will likely become obsolete, so Burning Earth will lose its effectiveness. (1) I will probably be playing 1-color aggro for this standa...

Don't like the UB walker - the +2 doesn't effect the game at all and both -X abilities are worthless the turn it comes down. It seems like a whole lot of do-nothing to me. He's a 3-mana threat in the mirror, if that's a thing. With Restoration Angel rotating, UW has even fewer answers to such a thr...

2 things I'm noticing in the spoilers so far that I really hope means something, but it probably doesn't, but I'm going to hope anyway. And then be disappointed. 1. There's a crap-ton of lightning in artwork. I'm holding out hope for Lightning Bolt in the block 2. Erebos has 7 toughness. Why? He's ...

The new land destruct is pretty cool; much more my style for the mirror than Volcanic Strength. It's a good time to be a red mage, I just hope they print us a playable one-drop. I suppose it could see some SB play - though I doubt it - but if it does, it'll certainly make Chained to the Rocks a goo...

I don't think that's necessarily what I want to be doing. The only thing that would do is increase my green count, while reducing my turn-1 black and red sources. With eight 1-drops in each color, I really believe I want 10+ sources to cast them. The basics are there for this reason, not in fear of ...

I wanna' play Bump in the Night and Huntmaster of the Fells before rotation, so I'm building a deck with both of them for fun.

Hey, everyone; I'd like to introduce myself. First off, my name's Adam, and I'm a Ph.D. student at Arizona State University. As far as Magic is concerned, I play red (the style, not necessarily the color). It'll be a pleasure working with ya'll.
