There is a big tournament being held at my local gaming shop this weekend. The total prizes equal a case of Gatecrash (1st Place wins 2 boxes, 2nd Place wins 1.5 boxes, etc..) I've really been preparing for this tournament, but I'm stuck on choosing between two decks. I feel they are both very competitive, but not sure which has a better shot at winning this thing. (These decks are not original, they are mostly based off of decks I saw in SCG Opens) Deck #1: RDWCreatures:

Depends on what you expect people to play at your store. RDW if you expect more Control, USA if you expect more Midrange and other Aggro decks.

Probably RDW. Not saying that it is necessarily "more competitive" than American, but it requires less decisions and reduces the risk of mana screw. Doesn't seem like much, but in a large tournament, you don't want to be giving games away due to mental errors or luck.

I'll second this. I've hit round 8 of a tournament and just shuuuuut down. May not seem like much, but at least with RDW you'll also have time for a lunch break. Both decks seem fairly competitive to me, btw.
