Deck Description

This deck isn't as good as Esper control or perhaps even Azorius control, but I enjoy playing America and red does add some very versatile cards. It is very similar to Azorius Control except for the following differences. Turn // Burn is good early or late as targeted creature control. Counterflux is good in the mirror match. Assemble the Legion is not as good as Elspeth, but the fact that it is an enchantment can be useful to protect it from Hero's Downfall. All 3 modes of Izzet Charm are useful in the deck.

Red-based cards in the side-board include Stormbreath Dragon, which is great for Azorius Control or White Weenie matchups, an extra Turn // Burn for tough threats like Ozbedat, Stormbreath, etc., and Wear // Tear for additional enchantment control and artifact control.

I like this deck, but being new to Magic, I am not sure I could play it effectively!!

It isn't that difficult to play once you get the hang of it. I'd suggest proxying the cards and play-testing it for a while to see if it suits you. You can use a website like the following to generate proxies pretty quickly, http://magic.bluebones.net/proxies/ .
