Deck discussion for Big Red

Seems a bit too top heavy for my liking.

I'd add some 1 or 2-drops. Like Goblin Arsonist.

To make room I'd cut down on the number of planeswalkers, so you are left with 2 of each. On top of that I'd also take out a titan and a hero of oxid ridge, and board in two red sun's zenith.

So something Like:
-2 Chandra
-2 Koth
-1 Hero of Oxid Ridge
-1 Inferno Titan
+4 Goblin Arsonist
+2 Red Sun's Zenith

I put in Kargan Dragonlord.. because who doesn't love Kargan Dragonlord. He's a two drop, and also a fatty. A win/win in my book.

Kargan Dragonlord is indeed a beast, especially because of the versatility of leveling, good call.

Haha. Yeah, I was eyeballing the benefits of Goblin Arsonist.. and it's essentially a "one and done", so I went with the leveling. I think it'll be a much better choice in the long run.

I agree, incredibly top heavy, and Klasper did a good job offering you some pretty solid suggestions.

Otherwise, if you like what you have, at least try to make room for Pyretic Ritual to help fire off some of those larger CCs sooner. Acceleration is key when you're looking to get some of those red fatties out. Another alternative would be to add Iron Myr to give you another stackable source of red mana.

Hope these suggestions help!

I welcome any comments and criticism you can offer for any of the decks I have posted here on the site (just click on my name to see the deck list). Thanks in advance!

I'm not a huge fan of Pyretic Ritual. I do, however, wish that Seething Song was standard legal. As I said on the comment above, Kargan Dragonlord was added.

I went:

-2 Chandra Nalaar
-2 Hero Of Oxid Ridge
+4 Kargan Dragonlord

Neato.
