How many basic lands should I have in a B/G\R deck

Mike_garzone

Well that would be contingent on a couple things...is your deck a aggro, mid-range, or control style deck? Also are you using duel and/or shock lands?

Aggro and I'm using as many dual/ shock lands as I have

In all honesty, I don't use basics in three color decks.  However, I don't play aggro.  Shock lands are probably going to be your best friends.  Being able to get T1 stuff going is phenomenal.  Playing a {Woodland Cemetery} T1 seems pretty lackluster.  Playing an {Overgrown Tomb} and whatever 1 drop you want is good (even at the cost of 2 life.)  Any chance you've got a deck list up?

Yeah it's over in the casual aisle
