RDW is ruining this game
I mean, RDW is the easiest fastest deck, but is ruining quite a lot this game.

With this deck you can win pretty fast, so even if you loose many games, you can goldmine pretty easily.

The main problem is that nowadays like 30% of the decks you play against is this kind and is really boring to have this much of the times play agains a player who plays goblin arsonist 1st turn followed by ring-mage bully, stormchaser mage or even call of the full moon on the second turn. I mean... like so many times fighting the same hand...

I tried twice this deck, but is unoriginal, arquityped, boring,... just winning is not fine for me, so i think that they should nerf this deck.

Before update was really easy to stop RDW, all you need was a perilious myr, that was enought, and I don't really know why they ban it. Everyone was using it beause was OP for a RDW deck and Amazingly OP against a RDW. Hope they put it back again, but any other sollution will be fine.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

People complaining about Aggro Red Decks.... rofl.
It's the same, all the time. Bad players complaining about fast red decks, crying for a nerf because they suck at MtG.

TL;DR Learn 2 Play, Git Gud.

Build a deck with a mana curve like 8-8-8-5-4-3. You'll rarely lose to mono-red.

Mana curve is not god, and in fact reading some answer shows that RDW lovers lack of reading cohomprension.

I do not suck at MtG, and in fact most of the times i win against RDW unless i had very bad luck with removals/mana, but what i said and has been clearly writen that the boring thing is to play against this decks so many times and those decks are ALWAYS the same.
The nick/rank/avatar is the only thing that taste different, even when i have to recognize that from time to time someone appears with a RDW using also bue and fevered visions that actuay looks fun to play with/against.

coolbeer you're ruining this game

Aww, look at the whiner making assumptions.
I can't even remember the last time I played a mono-red deck....
Actually, it was about a year ago, and I slapped one together IRL to face my wife's Boros Aggro deck, since most of my decks just stalled her out and then one with flying bombs, it wasn't really fair.

Just because we don't care for you whining about a common, and easily beaten, deck archetype, doesn't mean we are naturally "lovers" of said archetype, it just means that we are sick of hearing newbs whine about it.

I'm not whinning, just pointing out how many RDW decks that are almost the same (goblin arsonist, ring mage bully, call of the full-moon,...) and that is really boring.

I would understand that in competitive magic, but here where we all play just for fun...

dude it can't be that bad I mean I only win 2 out of 5 gamesbut still hit the gold cap.... don't mind the rank it will just make your game bad :steamhappy:

RDW isn't even the best farming deck anymore. White Weenie does everything RDW currently does, except better. There isn't much variety because the card pool is so limited. Every White Weenie deck is the same. Every RDW is the same. Every Super Friends deck is the same. This is just a consequence of Magic Duels. The gold system is also another reason why players will favor faster decks. "Boring" is subjective. If you don't want to play against a certain deck, just leave match and find a new game. You're just "playing for fun", right?

Hell no. The deck i like the most is the superfriends deck and i think mine is quite diferent to many others and in fact i tweak it quite a lot for the shake of fun.

I lost many games against White Weenie, same issue like RDW, but the thing i particularly dislike about RDW and is the center of my anger (if i have any) is that i checked and i'm playing against a RDW like 30% of the times, and i dont think a RDW deck changes more than 6 cards from one to another.
I like White Weenie, and i play it from time to time (WG weenie), and yes, may it be better, but is slower, like 1 to 2 turns slower than RDW. I do repeat the thing i dislike is the average of games i have to play against RDW

I understand how magic works, i just point that RDW is too common on duels and that even when they removed perilious myr because everyone was playing it (even RDW decks), the fact is that to me it helped me a lot play against such decks. They must stock RDW decks so the average

At levels 30-40 I rarely see aggro decks, it's almost exculsively midrange and control decks. If anything the meta is too slow. It could use a Monastery Swiftspear to annoy you even more.

nice card, indeed it is. :D Thanks is not on duels or i should be developing my RDW too :D
Жора May 31, 2016 @ 8:32am 
Currently in Duels, White Weenie and all kinds of White-Blue, White-Green Humans Aggro are a lot stronger than RDW.

I don't see anybody playing RDW at Rank 30+. I actually cannot remember playing more than 3 games against RDW this season. Mostly I see copy/paste Super Friends, and they're pretty much all the same, and they're incredibly overpowered (What else do you call a deck that is mostly Mythics and Rares?). Also, you can't play Stormchaser Mage in mono red. Are you sure your problem is with RDW and not Izzet Prowess? White Weenie is mono white. If you're playing WG, it isn't White Weenie. Don't mix up terminology and archetypes.

There are so many sweepers available to you, I don't see how you can be losing so often to such a basic deck like RDW.

RDW is so dead right now. I got Rank 40 with RDW last season, I should know. In which Ranks do you play? 1-10 ? It's not getting higher.
