Which would be a better color combo in standard between these 2 and y; Red/White or Red/Blue. Think more budget playing then having 4 of every card.

R/U besides Bonfire is pretty budget and Izzet cards are pretty easy to get a hold of. R/W doesn't have all of the "support" its needs just yet but Anti-Zombies seemed pretty cool.

yeah they really hate on zombies. odric with krenko is a way better move. krenko builds the army in no time by himself. wish i could try that zombie hate but i think i only have 1 of those and 0 ash zealots

krenko is slow though, and WAY too slow for zombies.
by the time you have the army, you could have just dropped gisela and call it a day and do more productive stuff with 4 mana
the spells that give pro color are fine too

i guess if you go mono-red tabletop like i do, it isnt too slow, and goblin token generators help quite a bit but im thinking more like kuldotha rebirth, dragon fodder, assault, and siege-gang commander.
if hes the only goblin you control on turn 5, you lose the ability to attack with him by making a 1/1 that will most likely have to block or die to global removal. turn 6 you have three 1/1s where only 1 can attack, turn 7 you have seven where 3 can attack. every turn they are 1 step closer to bonfire, electrickery if that sees play, mizzium mortars, or supreme verdict. krenko is a decent card but deprives you of a useful turn 4 by not doing anything for the first 2 turns hes on the board and something marginal the 3rd in a fast passed environment such as standard.

and u counter the mortars with safe passage and counter the other with the indestructible white card that populates. if they waste a big mass removal before ur 5 or 6 drop, then they cost themselves more

Well right now I am running U/W humans, and it has hosed a few zombies since I have a huge amount of first striking power to hose my opponent if they are playing zombies on turn 2
I use
4 precinct captain
4 knight of glory
4 elite inquisitor
2 thalia
then you add more threats like silverblade paladin and giest of saint traft and sublime archangel to make sure they can't really win easily against me
