Title: Any tips?
Post by: Langer on June 16, 2013, 12:36:37 PM
I wanted to make a B/U/R control/burn deck, but couldn't find much when researching it. Any tips on where to start?

That color combination is called grixis and searching for that might lead to better results, but I would say  {Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker} and  {Dreadbore} for starters

I would say that you should decide what format you enjoy, whether its standard, modern, legacy, strictly casual, or my personal favorite, EDH.

The reason for doing this is saving time and money.  No reason to buy certain cards if your going to be playing a format where they are not allowed.

Then, if your interested in a grixis build (U/B/R) you have access on this forum to some great builds, structured and organized by the format you have chosen.

:) welcome back to the game, hopefully I was able to answer your question and help guide you in the right direction. :)

I really only play casually with some friends from work, only thing I go to the game store for is drafts occasionally.
