Are there any B or R draw cards?
Asked by muffludwig 13 years ago
Other than Dark Tutelage and Sign in Blood ? I have an aggro b/r deck with no draw power. Sign in blood is kinda slow at BB. And tutelage hurts when I have a few 4 cmc and 6cmc

Also on the colorless list, Prophetic Prism , one of my favorite little utility cards.
Go to Gatherer and do an advanced search. Look for "draw card" in the text box (without the quotes, that'll mess you up), black and red cards and exclude unselected colors, and format standard. See what you can find.
Though I have to say, Sign in Blood is slow at 2 mana?

The absolute Best draw spells in standard that are in those colors are: Sign in Blood and Dark Tutelage , besides these spells there are some bad spells that cantrip and many artifacts that draw you cards.
Red has no Draw spells. If you are having trouble with the mana cost of your cards and that is having a negative effect on your deck with Dark Tutelage then, don't use it. Use Sign in Blood instead, it is a great draw spell and if you do not have the mana to play Sign in Blood you need to add more black sources into your deck for it or go with out a really good draw spell.

red has its own version of card draw but it can have a pretty significant drawback if you have a good hand Chandra Ablaze 's second ability is a perfect example of how red tends to draw cards

Sign in Blood is better than card:Night's Whisper for monoblack. Both are stupid fast card acceleration.

I second that notion! BRING BACK Browbeat ... Oh hold on, that won't happen... it's too fecking good! :)
It would have blue players crying for Counterspell to come back... oh the depression!
@Question
To be honest, Searching for the possibilities of draw cards can be a pain, espicially for red, but I hope the answers given here help ya lots...

Dear WOTC,
Please reprint Phyrexian Arena .
Thank you.
P.S. Monoblack and monogreen are due some better planeswalkers. You should get on that.
P.P.S. Day of Judgment is bad. You should reprint Wrath of God . And Damnation .
