I saw a few other decks posted here, so I decided to put a recent creation up for critique. New here, so apologies if this does not belong here.

x4 Rolling Stones
x4 Wakestone Gargoyle
x4 Ogre Sentry
x4 Stoic Ephemera
x4 Cinder Wall
x4 Sunweb
x4 Plumeveil
x4 Vent Sentinel
x4 Path to Exile
x24 Simple RW manabase

Card choices:
Rolling Stones- The backbone of the deck. Turns your walls into beaters.
Wakestone Gargoyle- A backup Stones if you don\'t draw them on a 3/4 flying body
Ogre Sentry/Sunweb- 3/3 for 2 and 5/6 flyer for 4 are both good
Stoic Ephemera/Cinder Wall- Rolling Stones eliminates their drawback, making both of these very efficient
Plumveil- Flash is nice, drop this at the end of your opponents turn or during combat to cause problems for your opponent
Vent Sentinel- If you get stuck, ping them with the sentinel while your walls do what walls do best
Path to Exile- One can never have to much removal

Side note: This is a casual deck, so there are some obvious improvements that could be made, (Swords for Path, etc.) but I\'m mainly looking to see if anyone has any ideas on the main theme that I could get easily. I\'m sure there\'s something obvious I missed. Also, I\'m trying to keep this defenders only, just as a personal challenge, but if anyone has anything really good that is on theme, I\'ll be flexible.

Yup, no worries... Old walls are better though... Also Ageless entity...

Edit: I meant Sentinel. Ageless Sentinel...

I considered Ageless Sentinal, but it doesn't benefit from the stones enough. Sunweb seems strictly better here. If I ever made a sideboard, I would include against decks with lots of enchantment removal though.

Why would a red creature have a flavor text on a white card? (Discluding Boros)

I have a Soulblast deck thats mainly walls. Rage Nimbus, Blistering Barrier, Wall of Razors, Torpid Moloch, Ogre Sentry, and Cinder wall. I also use Goblin Skycutter for flying defense and Kazuul, Tyrant of the Cliffs to get more creatures. I have a hard time against mass removal, but that's fine cuz it's just a casual deck.

ParadoxRemix  Sounds pretty cool. Walls with 0 power aren't really what I'm looking for, this is an aggro deck (ironically), it can kill on turn 5 and turn 6 consistently.
Also, even though it isn't really what I'm looking for, <3 for animate wall :)

None of the walls I listed had 0 power :S Those would not do so well with soulblast. The only downside I noticed in the deck posted here is lack of artifact/enchantment removal, which i consider a staple even in casual decks. Would be great if you could find a wall to do that for you, though I'm not sure if there is such a thing. If not, I'd probably try something like Saltblast, that way it can also be creature removal depending on who you're playing, and at the very least it's land removal.

This may be a post from 2010, but it may still bear discussion. I know it screws up the colors, but Doran, the Siege Tower makes walls dangerous!
