I'm relatively new to magic so please bare with me on this.
I wanted to use some spare cards that I had to make a blue deck for my little brother to use. I just want a casual deck that is at least half-way decent, basically one that will last him until he buys himself a deck.
Does anyone have some ideas? Is this deck junk or is it mediocre? Are there any cards I should take out or put in? Really any help with this would be nice
Junk. But since you want casual, throw in those last two lantern spirit, lost in the mist, and skaab Goliath, and maybe that Forbidden Alchemy. You could make this kind of control-y with big creatures such as the goliath. Lantern Spirit is a great game-staller. Take out Murder of Crows, and any other mill cards in there. Keep Deranged Assistant, though.

The second is guaranteed as a T1 deck that is really good, plus its' mana is better. I would choose #2. However, Eminem is correct, comes down to preference. Eminem was not correct, however, for tying Rihanna to the bed and setting the house on fire.
I figured it would be junk, but like I said it's just to hold my brother over till he get's a deck for Christmas, but I still want it to be usable. Thanks
That's how I would manage it, if I were you. It has an O.K curve, and it'll probably be fun to play, so long as you don't try to put it up against any competitive decks.

It kind of plays like a decent version of the mill yourself limited deck with a more controlling aspect. It's in order of CMC.
Still probably better than the starter decks you buy for $15.
With a $2-3 budget, heres what I would make (disclaimer: this was made in literally one minute):
