Red Deck Wins tends to pop up in every format, and is usually at least somewhat relevant. This is basically due to red's knack for being fast and aggressive. Second is a toss-up between black and white, as both have plenty of removal, although white is more aggressive and black is more control. Mono green can drop plenty of big, dumb creatures very fast. Blue almost never gets played by itself, as it usually lacks finishers and/or removal beyond counterspells.

i would go with black as a main (being new to magic and not knowing stats) because the infect ability really blooms if you got some cards with proliferate

Infect is really good, though I'm not sure how good mono black infect would be. If you can find some ways of giving your creatures some form of evasion (flying, fear, etc.) then it could work.

Yeah, you would definitely want to run removal spells, and maybe non-infect creatures to pressure your opponeent - attack them from two angles, basically.

Yeah, especially since red has to play from ahead in most cases. Red cards are built to be the aggressor, and blue mill can wreck some of its strategies.

red can also run into problems with a green deck that drops alot of enemies at once

Yeah, unless it runs Pyroclasms, Volcanic Fallouts, Chain Reactions and such.

As in, my Jund deck is pretty nuts as it runs tons of removal and then hits you hard. However, I build a Defender deck that runs pyroclasm and volcanic fallout alongside wall of omens and vent sentinels and it destroyed Jund.
