just started playing a month ago... this is my first deck... i put it up more for feedback to try and see how i can make it better

Knowing that you just stared a month ago, this may be slightly difficult for you, but my main suggestion (before even looking at the cards) is looking at the numbers. Try to get more 4-of's to help boost the consistency. You don't need NEARLY as many lands as you have, and also, knowing that the ration of white to red is almost 3/1, you shouldn't have that many mountains. In a 60 card deck, I'd recommend about 20 lands, give or take. Play test it a few times, after taking out some lands and putting in other cards, and if possible, getting more 4-of's and less 1 and 2-of's.

thank you very much for the feedback... and now that you mention it your advice does make a lot of sense. I just put so much land in there because i was afraid that if i maintained the 60 card count and had less land i wouldn't have a hard time drawing the mana i need... but i shall try to increase the copy count and see how that works out... once again thank you very much
ok first of all welcome to the plains of magic =] now devm had a few good points. but to be a lil more accurate find a good card u want to build ur deck around. maybe its a big powerful dragon or just using a bunch of lil creatures to swarm ur opp. once u have that find the cards that work with the deck and spells that work as well. there is almost an endless possiability for decks in magic. u can look up decks using cards for a base liine or do as u have here. most of the time its good to run 3 or 4 copies of most cards in ur deck.
thank you, i must say though that for the past 5 years i've been trying to avoid it but then one of my friends begged me nonstop to play with her so finally i caved in... and i can honestly say that it's quite addicting and fun... i never knew how massive and yet so intricate a card game could be the idea i had with this deck originally was trying to build a metalcraft deck, which my friend let me borrow hers when i was playing my first time... i really liked it so i thought i would give it a try for my first deck i do like this deck so i shall try to improve and once i feel it is better i shall edit it once again thanks for the welcome and everyone's advice
ur welcome lol yes it is a very stratagy based game and can be a handful if u dont get it. mostly b/c it was invented by a college professor. anyways, so u r looking to make a R/W metal craft deck hmm interesting i might have a deck list here for ya in a lil while to help ya out. =D
here is a simple deck idea for ya 4 etched champion 3 memnite 3 iron myr 2 gold myr 3 Indomitable Archangel 4 dispatch 4 lightning bolt 3 glinthawk idol 4 evolving wilds ( only cause its a cheap search land) 4 myr galvanizer 3 ichor wellspring 4 dismember 3 galvanic blast 10 plains 8 mountain not very strong but it isnt very expensive and can give u some kind of base line
thank you... i'll give it a try and see how it goes... i'm just curious as to how everyone knows all the different cards... is it because they've played so long and seen it all? or is there a way to look up all the cards in the game? i think if i knew more of what was available i'd have an easier time building haha... but thanks for the inexpensive idea, it definitely will help me out
ur welcome. actualy its a combination of the two. there r a few sites u can go to and look them u to ur hearts content lol. the most obvious is magicthegathering.com when u go there click on trading card game then on products. if u click on where it says all products u can see a complete list of every set including those that r currently what is known as Type2 standard legal. the other site i use is card kingdom.com u can see every set and search for cards seperatly such as dragon. if ya need anything feel free to tag my decks or post here again im glade to help a new duelist.
i am curious about one thing i just recently noticed in my deck... if i enchant a creature with my spirit mantle which gives it protection from creatures and then attach whispersilk cloak to give it shroud, does that mean it's indestructible? i asked my friend and she said the only thing she could think of to get rid of it would be a field wipe, but i'm curious if there is something we don't know about... i tried researching it but haven't had much luck
ok givin somethin protection means it simply cant be targeted or blocked or dealt damage by anything it gains pro of in example pro red simply means anything that is red cant touch that card. no damage can be done, it cant be blocked by a red creature and u cant target it with something red. now the cloak in a way does the same thing, only it cant be the target of any spells or abilities no matter what the color. how ever it is NOT indestructible. if u played something that destroys all creatures for instance, then it would whipe out ur creature cause its not targeting just it, its hitting all creatures. u can also just destroy the cloak and then the enchanment to make things a little easier. idk if this link will work here but, here is a link to the rule book from wizards themselfs to help u out. the hardest thing is to remember that the rules rnt made to be taken litteraly they r more like guide lines really. any ways heres the link : http://www.wizards.com/magic/comprules/MagicCompRules090501.txt
