Title: What is your LEAST favorite color

This can be personal preference, or what color you least like fighting against, or, well whatever you want.

My least favorite color used to be red. I always hated fighting red because I tend to favor matches that last long enough for "things to get interesting" so to speak, and red tries as hard as it can to end games quickly with hasties and lightning bolts. I also always wondered, aside from the speed, why bother with red? Green has better creatures and ramp, blue and black have better control, and white has some very strong "weenies" while seemingly offering more versatility in the long run. But I've started to grow a fondness for red after making a coin-flip deck, and most recently an EDH deck with Norin the Wary as commander (can't wait to try it out!).

As far as flavor is concerned, my least favorite is probably White. I'm just not a big fan of angels and do-goodery I guess.

When it comes to least favorite to fight, that's definitely a tie between blue and black. Counterspell. Counterspell. Doomblade. Eradicate. Ugh.

I can't draft green to save my life.

Type one my blue decks win by fluke (unless they are blue black).

I'd say it is a toss up between those two, even though I've drafted great dual color blue decks I'm leaning towards blue over green, mostly because I spend so much time trying to set up an engine and then negating the other player, that I realize that I've just been stalling the game and have no real way to win. If it wasn't for the onslaught elves I would have picked green, but that block made monocolor theme decks possible for even beginners(or people who just failed at green, like me).

Don't undersell white too quickly. White has a lot of answers and can be played control or fast...

White does have some awesome cards, I'm just saying as far as "flavor" is concerned it's probably my least favorite (and, not surprisingly, least used color).

Although I did have a fun idea for a "racist" deck where you use nothing but cards with protection from black, and cards that turn their permanents black. But I'm too cheap to buy 4 painter's servants, LoL.

My least favorite color is red. It's just too simple. Not much more to say.

Going to say red, I could never get very creative with that color

1st Place Blue I never enjoyed letting your opponent seize the iniative and then focusing on controlling it. I love blue when mixed with something else, but I don't like running mono-blue. Ever. (With the exception of the Ixidor reality sculptor deck) 2nd place Green. Its too simple, again with other colors I like it better. Now I can do some crazy stuff with red. CHANCE ENCOUNTER!!!!

I've definitely warmed up to red. It just has a lot of WTF cards that work great in multiplayer. Play some EDH and cast Scrambleverse, Thieves' Auction, Planar Chaos, Grip of Chaos, etc, and just laugh at the madness that ensues.

@ turbine:

no its not. i just avoid all blue v. blue deck confrontations. and straight up blue decks are boring, it better mixed with something like black or white or all three colors

I meant that it's silly to only like a deck when you are playing it.
