I am looking to get into semi-casual modern with a 50$ or less fun deck that uses red. I thought my Jank cards post would help with that, but not.

Mono red burn is the cheapest bang for your buck type deck.

I'm a huge advocate of mono green stompy as a budget deck. I'll post a list in this forum tonight when I'm not in school.

Another green style deck that's competitive is mono green aggro

X4 {Dryad Militant}
X4 {kalonian tusker}
X4 {leatherback baloth}
X4 {strangle root Geist}
X4 {experiment one}
X3 {Scavenging ooze}

X4 {aspect of hydra}
X4 {vines of vastwood}
X4 {rancor}
x3 {dismember}

21 {forest}
1 {Treetop Village}

This is the kind of deck I was referring to. I do like to have some number of {dungrove elders} to hedge your grindy matchups a little bit though.

I don't know why I couldn't remember the dungrove elders. Drop the oozes and dismembers down to 2 and the vines down to 3 and throw in 3 Dungrove Elders

Thank you for all your help, the deck ideas look great. One thing u missed, is I am looking for a deck that contains red.

Mono-{R} is always a good choice but it honestly needs {G} or {W} as a splash for sideboard enchantment hate. {Leyline of Sanctity} is such a blowout that you NEED a way to stop it. Even if you never see it, the games that you do, you'll be glad you have the removal. It's even better than {Stony Silence} against Affinity.

What would u suggest for mono red, also what budget lands should I use to splash

Codester1991

If you're going red green {root bound crag}

Z5

What would u suggest for a d can idea as well as cards for rug, or rw

Codester1991

"D can" ? I'm sorry I'm not good with any form of abbreviations "laugh out loud"
