Hi guys I am deciding on a deck to take to my first FNM. Any suggestions?

Deck 1
Deck 2

I think you'll find the RDW more manageable. It's straightforward, so you won't have to think much and be distracted by nervousness. There are only so many possible misplays in Red, just know where to aim you burn.

Well I am thinking more long term here. I am on a budget, so if I buy one of these decks I want it to be better. Ease of use is not necessarily a huge factor for me. Thanks for the suggestion, but I think I should rephrase the question to "which deck is better?"

I playtested the RDW deck a few times against the WW deck, and it felt like RDW had a tendency to be flooded, even when keeping 1 or 2 land hands. I would probably dump the number of lands a little, or mainboard the Fanatic of Mogis over Firedrinker Satyr s

Cool, I will make the change. Overall though, do you have an opinion as to which deck has more potential/is better in its current state.

I'd say the white deck is more resilient with protection in the form of Frontline Medic and Brave the Elements . The red deck feels a little slow as far as RDW goes.

Cool, I think I will go with the white deck then, I have more of the cards as well so I should be able to get the rest of the cards for about $20. Thanks for the help!
