Deck discussion for First Deck

Welcome aboard. Your first deck is a valiant attempt but needs a lot of work. First off you probably do not have many . cards and made the deck with what you have. That is fine and most of us started that way. Try to get free cards from experienced players at your local store if you have one. Veteran players have multiple commons they do not need and will often help out a beginner. When you have more cards to chose from try to make your deck a maximum of 3 colors to start. Two main colors and one splash of very good cards in a third color that cover the weaknesses in your deck. Look for cards that work well together and make each other better Ex Gates and Gatekeeper cards. Establish a goal or purpose for your deck - how it will win, and how it will stop your opponent from beating you while you put your plan in motion. Then put your deck together and study the mana curve to see that you have plays an each turn if possible. Your mana curve for your first deck has a few too many cards that cost 4 or more mana. You do not have enough lands in the deck to cast different color spells that cost 2 ,3 or 4 mana on turns 2,3,and 4. If you stall a turn or two and your threats are delayed, you just made your opponents deck that much better. You need at least 20 lands in a 60 card deck (there are exceptions), and your deck as listed probably should have 23 or 24. Fix your deck, play it and see what works. Go from there - add what works and remove what does not seem to help, or is too slow , or "almost solves the problem" but you lose anyway. Learn from your mistakes and do not be afraid to ask questions there are no stupid questions if you do not know the answer. Have fun . Sorry to be so long winded.
