If you use the same mana color spells together, there will be so called inherent effects. One spell would straighten each other and they will become more powerful. On the other hand, cards of different colors sometimes make each other weaker because of the inherent limitations.
Many experienced players do not like single colored deck because of the disadvantages of using single color. The ways of attack of a single color is limited and therefore more predictable for the opponent. This is a huge disadvantage because this would allow the opponent to easily cancel our attacks. Also, using a single color means you cannot take advantage of the strengths of the other colors.
Thanks to the new expansion sets, new cards are introduced to bring in multicolor game play. Some cards allow you to access abilities of different colors by paying more mana cost. This would make the power of different colors more even and introduce more possibilities into the game.
If you use a multi-color deck, you may be able to enjoy the different strengths of different colors. But you must design the deck in a good way, so that you would draw bad cards all the time. For examples, you have all blue land cards, but in your hand not even one blue card. You will have a hard time moving on.
Finally, we know that multi-color deck can be very powerful in the sense of the diversity of attacks and the combination of the advantages of each color, but the skill level required to do it well is high. We recommend beginners to first stick with single colored deck first. Once you learn more about the strengths and weaknesses of different mana colors and the possibilities of combining them. You may go ahead and build your first multi-color deck. But remember that these kind of multi-color magic cards are not cheap!
