Yeah, it's interesting how priorities work in roto drafts, but it's probably pretty easy to pick up random dorks. There isn't much variation in power of red creatures, they're mostly pretty average.
There aren't enough good red instants and sorceries that aren't burn, LD or Faithless Looting.
Tru fax.
In general or in the cube? (I think in general, I really don't have a problem with the density of burn in the cube apart from it not being terribly interesting. I'd much rather play strong burn than weak other stuff).
In other news, the first red creature goes to Grimreaper but it's actually just burn in disguise. And I'm the only person to pick up land.
Asking out a girl is like trying to cast a first turn Necropotence. Sometimes the other player will have the Force of Will to say no. You shouldn't let that stop you from trying it.
Also, not being designed to specifically roto is a very good point. Red is usually a splash color in most of my drafts and mono red burn is usually not possible.

Burn is pretty much impossible in normal drafting and sealed; there's honestly as much chance of building it and succeeding as there is of building Metathran tribal in Lorwyn limited. You can definitely get a good amount of burn and it's possible to make a solid aggressive red deck, but not to the point of having the luxury to throw all your burn at their face.

@Volcanon: I don't think that proves that at all - it's not designed for roto and we're still in the early picks.

What else does red do, though? In my cube, the only non-burn red spells are Faithless Looting, Reckless Charge, Rites of Initiation, Nightbird's Clutches, and Aftershock. Red's spells are not really deep enough to do much else, at least not at common.
Also, not being designed to specifically roto is a very good point. Red is usually a splash color in most of my drafts and mono red burn is usually not possible.
