Topic: [Standard] [Feedback] Feedback for my casual Red/Green Deck?

So I've just gotten (back) into Magic after not playing since Lorwyn, and even then I was only ever a very casual player who didn't do much deckbuilding. I'm trying to get into it.

Anyway, this (http://deckbox.org/sets/566984?) is a Green/Red Theros only deck I've put together haphazardly, hoping that I've formed something worth playing. The point is mana-ramp (i've only learned this term recently, to give a picture of how new to this I am) in order to get out big creatures. Sounds simple enough, right? Also, I would like to stick to only Theros cards for this deck.

It's definitely for casual play, and I'm using mostly cards I've pulled already to keep down cost. I don't have the money to drop on a bunch of rare singles. So I guess my keywords are cheap, casual, and fun? Like a good date!

Anyway, I would appreciate it in a big way if some of you more wizened magic players would deign to give some small advice for this humble and admittedly thrown together deck to help me progress past this early awkward stage of deckmanship, with a minimum of spiteful if deserved evisceration. Thank you in advance!

Just looking at what you already have, I'd suggest using Titan's Strength.  An opponent will often let a 2 power creature through rather than trade, but turning it into 5 dmg and scrying for one red is a nice trick.  Also helps to kill off a big attacker when defending.  The scry is a pretty good mechanic; it really helps when you can throw an unneeded basic land to the bottom of the library.

Oh that sounds like a good tip. Thanks! I'll definitely be including that.
