Tri-Coloured Deck

I am a little scared of making a tri-coloured deck for it might be too hard to play. Last time I tried, I got destroyed. How would I approach making one of these??
P.S - Please check out my black/white deck.
The key to building any multi colored deck is to have a good land base, a 3 colored deck for instance would be able to handle around 5 non dual lands (up to 4 being non basic lands) in a 24-26 land deck (also aside from the most aggressive or decks with 8 or so mana dorks I'd suggest not going below 24 land).

There's a lot to consider when making three colors. If you're not working on a budget, getting shock lands and Innistrad duals can make the whole thing a lot easier.
That being said, there's a lot to choose from in standard right now in a variety of archetypes.
The most popular are (in no particular order and not a full list):Green/White/Blue (also known as "Bant") decks:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Bant Auras- uses hexproof creatures with enchantments to do damage.Bant Control- control deck with lots of lifegain.Wolfrun Bant- midrange deck with Kessig Wolf Run
Red/Green/White (also known as "Naya") decks: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Naya Blitz- weenie deck that plays cost-efficient creatures to flood the board.Naya Humans- similar to Naya Blitz, but uses humans to take advantage of tribal cards.Naya Midrange- Good ol' fashioned midrange with Thragtusk and Aurelia, the Warleader
Green/Black/White (known as "Junk"):--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Junk Rites- Fills its graveyard with Grisly Salvage and Mulch, then casts huge creatures with Unburial Rites.Junk Midrange- similar to Naya Midrange and Bant Wolfrun, but with Black instead of Red.
Green/Red/Black (known as "Jund"):--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Jund Midrange- probably the most common Midrange variant, with no white or blue.Jund Zombies- a zombie deck that uses cards like Gravecrawler and Cavern of Souls.
Others:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------American Control- Red, white, and blue based control.Esper Control- White, blue, black (known as "Esper") based control.Superfriends- There's a lot of different color combinations, but it basically is a deck full of powerful planeswalkers used to control the opponent.
