May have to have sideboard teck to deal with zombies that refuse to die because I know for a fact there are 3 of those decks going around where I go to FNM.
Aside from Annihilating Fire and Pillar of Flame any other ways to counter R/B Zombies?
Also there a Red archetype aside from Bus Rush the hell out of everything?
The best way I can think of to deal with Zombies like Gravecrawler in the late game is Angel of Glory's Rise. It exiles all zombies and, if you have any, brings any humans in the graveyard back from the dead (which would technically make them zombies and therefore should be exiled and oh my I've gone cross-eyed) when it comes onto the field. I'm currently running one in my sideboard. Might need to put some more in.
And you could go dragons in red maybe? While not the greatest, you could try doing that. I've considered making a red dragon-based deck and see what happens.

Trostani, Selesnya's Voice. Any good? Can anyone recommend anything to go with it?
Also non-game related question: What's the best way of sorting the multi-colour cards when your system is colour-based?
Consider that Trostani is currently worth about $16, more then double what any other guild leader is worth. Yea, she's really good. I'd put her in a lifegain/token deck, or even just tokens. I personally was going to put her in my lifegain/token deck that had 3 Rhox Faithmenders just to be absurd.
Also, I order the multicolors seperately based on what colors, with the 'either-or' types being in front sorted by their colors, 2 multicolors needed for casting by colors, and then 3 costed multis, etc.
