BR doesn't deal with O-ring.

BR has no answer to enchantments. It's one of the weaknesses of both R and B. Much like how UB doesn't have a solid answer to artifacts. You have to play around it.

However, if you're going for an aggro build, O-Ring shouldn't stop you. If one card is so central to the victory of your deck, it's not really aggro.

Sometime artifacts themselves will help in that...helping to splay around it as it were.

The enchantment is a bitch though. Take it from me mostly black, unless they somehow draw 3-4 during your game it shouldn't be too difficult to slog through.

Then again lots of my decks have mimic vats which make me have more creatures than it seems.
