Hmmm, even the budget decks I'm missing most of the cards. I guess getting into constructed as F2P is not a good idea?

I was able to make a couple meta variants of rdw after a few days of grinding the freebee decks and dropping 55 to buy some packs and play some drafts

Yeah. The SB is fairly cheap and can be easily adjusted to fit cost. It's not an amazing deck but is a pretty cheap alternative to RDW that can win games.

Bought the starter pack and $50 of gems, converted it into 15 packs of Ixalan, Rivals, Dominaria, and Ravnica. I imported the top two rows from here:
Magic: the Gathering Standard Decks and Metagame Breakdown (All Decks)
And I can make most of those decks with my wildcards. This is without sideboards, I figure BO1 is better for now to learn. BO3 seems like really long games. Any recommendations on which to do? I'm leaning toward Boros Weenie(though, not sure what makes it Boros without the sideboard) or RDW(though
Kiroy
says it's countered in current meta). Might also try a BW vampire deck, but I don't see one mentioned in here at all. No good anymore?
Basically, a deck that's on the smaller side to ensure it curves out consistently. Elfball I think meets that criteria too.

Yea Boros weenie is really, really strong in the best of 1 format. You don't have to follow any of the exact decks as a lot of is flexible aside from the 4x History of Benalia and 3 or 4 Legion's Landing.
My current version runs real low to the ground with snubhorn sentry, bodyguard and skymarcher for 12 1-drop creatures. Heroic Reinforcements is the gods honest truth and will still you so many games you have no business winning.

Someone had asked about Ixalan limited in the thread and I responded that the sets rotate and it would come. Well apparently, they did not add Ixalan to the rotation because it was the least liked set for limited. This has now changed and they will be adding Ixalan to the rotation again, ETA is second half of December.

BW vamps is decent. You can make it work with mostly uncommons. Highly recommend the 2/4 flying vamp that draws a card and does damage to the opponent, people go out of their way to remove that card. Dawn of Hope is also a GREAT white card to craft. Quite an excellent draw engine.
