I'm sure its been posted here millions of times, but just for the record:
I have about $250 dollars to spend on a deck, and have these p9 cards:
Mox Jet
Mox Pearl
does anyone recommend a deck I should try that I may have overlooked?
I can also trade a Mox for $220. so with both moxen I have $250, with one I have $470, and with none i have a $690.
thanks alot.

It's generally not that good an idea to make a post like that, but I'll help out as much as I can. First off, we need to know your metagame, and what are you're interests? Being competitive, or casual play, for example. There are a lot of various decks you could try out with or w/o moxen with the money you have. Just to name a few, EBA, Suicide Black, Goblin Sligh and there are plenty of others which I won't bother with right now.

metagame is heavy aggro, but there is some control.
90% aggro, 10% control
serious play.

@Cpkrug
-Chill man, that kind of post doesn't really help anybody... Sometimes you have some limitations (such as the power/cash that you have) that you have to follow
@ScorchedEarth
-Well, if we follow the normal rock-paper-scissors kind of idea that combo beats aggro beats control beats combo, it would follow that aggro/combo would probably be your best choice. As I've mentioned before, Sui Black might be a choice, or you might try semi-powered WGDragon or Reanimator. If you use the search button, you can probably find a couple of lists.

What non-power do you have? Full set of Drains and FoW's? Duals? etc. You could be brave and try something like fish.. buy an ancestral with your cash. It'll be useful in general, anyway.

I agree that four Bazaars would be a VERY good investment in your situation (and dropping the Pearl to afford them). I'd be a little hesitant in fear of restriction, though. Maybe that's being over cautious?
If you do go for 4 Bazaars, you could build Dragon deck or a Madness deck. Both are pretty good choices!
Also, I saw that one or more people think that this is a horrible post. I have to strongly disagree. He's simply asking people that know what his best choices are. Don't you believe that this is a great place to find information?

I would suggest you to play Suicide-Blonde since you have the Jet and Pearl! Although Sui is not that good in an aggro-heavy meta this variant could perhaps be a nice choice...
Buy 4 Vindicates, 4 Swords to Plowshares, 4 Sinkholes, 4 Scrublands, 4 Hymn to Tourach, Demonic Tutor, YawgWin and some nice black Critters (Shade, Hyppie and Withered Wretch are nice!).
That's what i would play if i were in your situation, because i like Sui and the white splash is nice vs aggro decks!
You could even drop the Pearl to have more money for the other cards, because you dont need the Pearl in this deck that much.
BW-Dragon probably the best choice in an aggro-heavy meta (cause its combo) but (again my personal feeling) i dont like to dominate a (scrubby) aggro meta with a semi-powered COMBO-deck.

Hey guys,
since I have 2 moxen, 4 SOTF, and a playset of tropical islands, i thought i may go with some sort of B/G/R TNT build.
I may drop the blue however and sell the tropical islands for taiga.
ill have to test on mws and apprentice i guess.
thanks for the responses.
