With this deck, the key to success will be getting your creatures to connect with your opponent's face. By combining red's raw power with blue's trickery, you'll make sure your haymakers hit their mark.

Some of your best tools for getting creatures through your opponent's defenses are actually your other creatures. Trained Condor and Goblin Shortcutter can both clear a path for a hardhitting creature like Regathan Firecat. If the creature you sneak through is a "firebreather" like Dragon Hatchling or Shivan Dragon that lets you spend unlimited red mana to boost its power, your opponent is sure to feal the heat!

This deck also includes an arsenal of powerful spells. Red "burn" spells are best used to kill opposing creatures and clear the way for your own. Disperse provides another way to temporarily remove a blocker or to throw off your opponent's calculations during combat. Among your most powerful cards is Shiv's Embrace, an Aura that gives any of your creatures firebreathing. Try to wait to cast it until your opponent is out of removal spells or you can protect your enchanted creature with Negate.

One of the best things about the red-blue color combination is its versatility, and adding more Magic™ cards to your collection will let you take this deck in the direction you like best. If you enjoy burning your opponent to a crisp with red damage spells, try out Annihilating Fire and Explosive Impact from the Return to Ravnica set. Or if blue trickiness is more your style, Cyclonic Rift can instantly return every nonland permanent your opponent controls back to his or her hand. And always keep an eye out for more Dragons!
