okay, i just found out that broodstars are $12 apeice. I thought that they would be lower, so i guess im not going to splash blue this time. I need more arty lands in the deck, should i use off colour stuff?

You SHOULD splash is blue for affinity. There are a lot of really good cards you should put in there. Since you don't have any ravagers, you should take out disicples, and atogs. It just isn't good enough. You should put in thirst for knowledge(good draw), thoughtcast(good draw again, probably better in this case), qumolox(a flying creature with affinity you can play relatively fast), cranial plating(a common but very good card you can equip to your flyers and attack for a whole lot), and somber hoverguard(an even cheaper flyer, with affinity) That is how I would build a "Poor mans" affinity.

you don't have to splash blue for affinity... It does help - but I think you could use a similar red/black deck and do well - though it wouldn't be "affinity based"...

maybe...

maybe not...

either way - if he's not going to splash blue he needs to settle on something, and r/b has proven itself...;)
