So, I just recently started playing MTG, I got the Feast of Flesh intro pack as well as a few booster packs, and kind of customized the deck, however because I'm new at this I don't really know how good it is, what cards to look out for, ect my current deck consists of the following.
14 Swamp
9 mountain
1 despise
1 wring flesh
1 disentomb
1 evil presence
1 sorin's thrist
2 geth's verdict
1 go for the throat
1 dismember
1 morbid plunder
1 blood seeker
2 phyrexian rager
2 blistergrub
2 entomber exarch
2 caustic hound
1 chancellor of the dross
2 furance scamp
1 whipflare
1 fling
2 blisterstick shaman
2 tormentor exarch
2 artillerize
1 wrack with madness
1 scoria elemental
2 flameborn viron
1 shrine of burning rage
1 tower of calamities
1 onyx mage
As for other cards that I currently have in my collection I have
1 evil presence
2 parasitic implant
1 enslave
1 deaths caress
1 monomania
1 lifes finale
1 ichor explosion
1 royal assassin
1 whispering spector
1 geralf's messenger
1 reaper of sheoldred
2 mountain
1 fling
1 razor swine
1 blisterstick shaman
1 prodigal pyromancer
1 ogre menial
1 nearheath stalker
1 bonebreaker giant
I do, of course have other cards but, I only really have a decent amount of red and black land cards so, all others are reletively useless.
Copied this over from general, because I didn't see this subforum so..Yea, my bad?

A quick cheat in regards to learning code is to quote someone's post that uses it, and pay close attention to what they've done.
As for your deck, add that Life's Finale  ; Ichor Explosion  is tempting as well, considering the power of some of your guys. To bad that I.E. costs so much to cast.
I would try to tighten up the deck by running more copies of certain cards, and fewer or no copies of others. Figure out which cards you like best and get more of them - more copies of a card (up to the legal limit of four) helps ensure your seeing them in a game.
Also, black removal is solid, but red provides Lightning Bolt  and Incinerate  , which can be used against your opponent's dome, unlike most black removal. Black provides card draw, an easily-acquired one being Sign in Blood  . The more cards you draw per game, the better chance you have of winning.
Lest I forget my favorite BR card, Blightning  is NOT standard legal, but oh my, is it a great card.
Cheers!

Tell us what your favourite cards are and maybe we can build a deck around that. Otherwise, I'd suggest adding more of despise  , Geth's verdict  , phyrexian rager  and you can never go wrong with a playsets of lightning bolt  s and terminate  s.

Sorry, been really busy lately..
If I had to pick, I'd say me favorite is chancellor of the dross  , and I'm rather fond of vampires..I've gotten a few more packs and bought a few singles I've found here and there to try to build a vampire deck but I've not had much time to test it out in different situations.
Currently I'm running
11x Mountain 
19 swamp 
2 shrine of burning rage 
2 geth's verdict 
2 tormentor exarch 
2 wrack with madness 
2 artillerize 
2 avacyn's collar 
2 blistergrub 
2 stromkirk captain 
ruthless invasion 
shock 
child of night 
morbid plunder 
vengeful vampire 
markov blademaster 
despise
scoria elemental 
chancellor of the dross
increasing ambition 
wring flesh 
goblin fireslinger 
fires of undeath 
stromkirk noble 
bloodlord of vaasgoth 
dismember 
sorin's thirst 
black cat 
rakish heir 
go for the throat 
blood seeker 
disentomb 
nearheath stalker 
bloodrage vampire 
So, I have a good number of cards in my collection that, typing all that alone kind of made my fingers numb so, maybe once I get the feeling back until then, cards already posted to add/take away would be nice, and yea, its 70 cards instead of 60 but there were a few I wanted to add that I coulden't find anything to take out so I just said..eh, **** it, its not against the rules anyway..

First thing I would do is cut the number of lands and get rid of all of the non-vampire creatures. Then I would add playsets of the recommended noncreature spells listed above ( Blightning , Lightning Bolt and Terminate  ), and add more of the better vampires. Lands (24)10x Mountain 14x Swamp  Creature spells (20)1x Chancellor of the Dross  4x Stromkirk Captain  1x Blood Seeker  1x Stromkirk Noble  1x Bloodlord of Vaasgoth  1x Vengeful Vampire  1x Markov Blademaster  1x Bloodrage Vampire  1x Nearheath Stalker  1x Rakish Heir  1x Child of Night  3x Vampire Hexmage  3x Vampire Nighthawk  Noncreature spells (16)4x Geth's Verdict  4x Blightning 4x Lightning Bolt 4x Terminate It would also help to know what your budget is.

Well right now I have like 25 bucks, but I usually end up spending somewhere between 30 and 40 a week on cards, not much but it gets me a good collection. also, now having feeling back in my fingers, in my collection I have(only black, red and artifact for obvious reasons) 2 mortis dogs  2 dementia bat  2 blind zealot  2 doom blade  2 parasitic implant  2 evil presence  2 reap the seagraf  2 undying evil  2 phyrexian rager 2 caustic hound  2 entomber exarch  enslave  liliana's specter  falkenrath torturer  call to the grave  sightless ghoul  life's finale  ichor explosion  death's caress  monomania  whispering specter  reaper of sheoldred  royal assassin  gravepurge  skirsdag flayer  distress  hideous visage  despise onyx mage  fiend of the shadows  - mostly likely going to add to my deck, I honestly can't remember why its not.. pith driller  necrogen scudder  2 fling  3 russet wolves  2 faithless looting  wall of torches  scorch the fields  blisterstick shaman  bonebreaker giant  prodigal pyromancer  ogre menial  razor swine  hinterland hermit  flameborn viron  3 furnace scamp  talons of falkenrath  immerwolf  act of treason  afflicted deserter  ruthless invasion whipflare  torch fiend  gremlin mine  2 evolving wilds  kiln walker  silver myr  swiftfoot boots  warden of the wall  jar of eyeballs  mindcrank  2 thran golem  2 warlord's axe  2 myr superion  2 sickleslicer  2 copper carapace  alloy myr  darksteel relic  2 brass squire  blinding souleater  druidic satchel  necropouncer  tower of calamities  scepter of empires  kraken's eye  5 hovermyr  argentum armor  viridian claw  dismember I'm not too sure about adding my second dismember, mostly because its a promo and I want to keep it mint, and even using card sleeves they can get alittle roughed up. Also, theres one thing about the stromkirk captain 's I have in my deck that I'm unsure of, do they give the +1/+1 to each other if I have two on the field? and does it stack? so if I have four, everything effectively has a +4/+4?

To be honest, that's a *lot* of money.
My advice: stop buying boosters and random assortments, and take a look at the decklist I posted. Terminate is almost always better than Dismember  , and they're cheaper.
