Nice idea I think your problem will be speed you may want to toss in some counter I'd also side board 2 elixers you shouldn't need that many, if your trying to speed things up but keep your cost down consider landfall harrows khalniheart expedition rampant growth cultivate explore any are good with the crab Check my deck out for ideas plus I can allways use ideas http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=294278
Keep in mind this just my opinion aha, Traumatize is just plain aweful by 5th turn they'll have less the 30 cards in their library if their lucky in which case it'll mill 15 cards for 5 mana bad card advantage, increasing confusion isn't as good as it seems I played it in mine and I'm now going to take it out hedron crab is the best way to go and abuse landfall to max it out spash in green and take out some of the high cost mill, and toss in some cryptoplasm's or some phyrexian metamorphs, I'm running U/G/B check it out I d like a 2nd opinion I've been having issues getting the crab out asap
Any ideas on how to pull hedron crab I'm having issues getting it out early
I wanna slim this down to 60 cards any ideas on what I shud remove
Keep in mind this is a work in progress I still need a sword of fire and ice and a few other cards
Oh and ps don't forget your focus inkmoth nexus is amasing but pinging your oppentent for 10 poison is not your game and you have no pump to benifit it, it'll relly suck if you have that on the field and all you need is one more red mana
Looks good man, just don't forget red decks play fast and unfortunatly play out fast if you can't win by turn 6 you prolly won't, toss in some late game boost like tezzeret's gambit or gitaxian probe other wise you'll be topdecking pretty fast and that's no fun for a burn deck. Livewire lash and mox opal would be good addiotions as well
mikaeus the unhallowed would be good for undying, in my opinion your mana curve is way to high and yah some birds would be a good choice.
The deck looks good and if its working and your having fun with it don't change it like you said its casual, I like to have a few casual decks lieing around myself its no fun when you beatstick all your friends all the time with 2nd turn blightsteel collossus. As far as deck building advice stick with what your comfortable with there's nothing wrong with a mono coloured deck I've got lots, what you want to remember is there's a lot of great cards but not all of them can be included the way I build a deck is actually fairly simple, find a card or combo you want to build around, ill use rampaging baloths as an exp. First look at the card and find its weaknesses and strengths, in the baloths case its high mana cost and can be easially chump blocked or destroyed be doom blade ext. , it has an abilty with land fall so you need lots of ways to generate landfall exp. Harrow, cultivate, khalni heart expedition, to help keep him on the field use enchantments like canopy cover, then once you have a base deck fill in the blanks to help deal with problems or add cards that compliment or have the same demands of the baloth such as scute mob or in my Green/black demon landfall - ob nixilis, the fallen. http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=298577 Most importantly have fun and keep it simple good luck with your deck building
Looks good man only thing I can suggest is to bring it down to 60 cards you prolly only need 22 lands to run it and I'd take out the doom blades relace with tezzerets gambit
Ok so remove 3x Leyline of Punishment add to sideboard (useful only agaisnt lifelink decks) 3x leyline of lifeforce add to sideboard (useful only against blue control) 4x magus of the vineyard you need landfall for the cobra Add Harrow, khalni heart expedition Scute mob is fantastic as a note Add more beatsticks 6 ceatures won't do it without deck thining ps I'd run fetch lands before I'd run stomping ground for this deck. I'd consider some balefire dragons or hellkite chargers. I'd run two red sun zenith instead of fireball. Anouther cool idea is running mass landfall and valakut, the molten pinnacle
I'm running a deck with this combo as well if need ideas http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=298588
Take out traumatize its not good mill for the mana cost I'd add twin cast to use with glimpse and mind funeral your mana curve is very high, and I'd suggest hedron crab its one the best mill cards out there
I don't or they'd be in there, and there's no other demons that benifit from landfall so I'd be getting away from the theme of the deck
Corpse lunge would be fantastic X(B or pay 2 life) return target creature from your graveyard to the battlefield it gains haste exile it at the end of turn
The blood tribute combo is amasing but not in a vampire deck vampires are ment to be fast and by the time you get the mana for that combo your oppenent should be dead, this is a very good start tho, I'd take out the bloodwitch she'll end up sitting in your hand as much as she does on the field, kalastria highborn is amasing, I'd replace bloodwitch, and viscera seer is a nice combo with bloodghast and kalastria, remove terramorphic expanse entirely mabey crypt of agadeem. I'm currently running R/B leg vapires and I'm running dark ritual, 1st turn nighthawk seems badass just saying lol check out my deck tho for ideas
Remember there's lots of good combos and good cards, but if you want consistency you need to focus on one main idea with 1 or 2 secondary that support the first, at the moment your mana curve is through the roof bring it down, your majority of cards should be 3 mana
I'd put more mind funeral in, when twin casted itll make ppl cry, currently tho the fastest most effective way to mill is hedron crab and landfall check out my mill deck for ideas. I agree traumatize is awful lol for its cost, if you can afford em glimpse the unthinkable is broken
I would side board it against aggro decks, but you shouldn't need it otherwise you have lots of blockers.
