Modern Mono-Red - Suggestions?
Deck Help forum
Posted on Sept. 15, 2013, 3:25 a.m. by Dakkon037
I'm looking for feedback on my first modern deck, a mono-red deck focused on burn effects.
If you are interested, have a look at Modern Red Burnout. Comments appreciated.
Thanks everyone!
Turbo, that's not really the best way to give feedback.
Modern is a very quick format, and your deck should be tuned to kill consistently on turn 4. A hand full of Lightning Bolt and Rift Bolt can accomplish that.
Browbeat , Devil's Play and Cathedral Membrane ? Not very dangerous cards.
You probably want to run as many high-efficiency spells as possible. So stuff like Lightning Bolt , Rift Bolt and Lava Spike are all 3 damage spells that go directly to the face.Galvanic Blast and Shrapnel Blast are fine cards in the right decks, which is decks that can activate Metalcraft consistently. I think only Affinity aggro decks can do that right now.
I would cut the Memnite , Perilous Myr , Isochron Scepter , Ichor Wellspring and Cathedral Membrane at least and try to find better alternatives.

Gatherer disagrees with you.

You need faster creatures: Spark Elemental
, Hellspark Elemental
and, if your budget is higher than mine, some Goblin Guide
.
About Browbeat
, I think you should leave it because with a red deck wins you'll be used to cast more than one spell each turn, so you'll run out of card soon, usually after the 4th turn. Drawing additional cards is useful...

Browbeat is a bad Vexing Devil . Card draw is not needed for rdw burn. Also try cards like Skullcrack and Searing Blaze

Why are you running all these bad artifacts, copy spells and Browbeat? Cut them all.
Add some black for Dark Confidant and Bump in the Night.
Lava Spike, how are you not running it? Rift Bolt?
Come on man.
