Me and my Friend are debating what's better, an offensive deck with a little defense or a defensive deck with a little offense. I personally believe that defense is the way to go but he doesn't believe me. I use CBN demons and he uses Disciples and our matches are usually good match ups. I was just wondering what the community's thoughts were.

Clearly, your friend is a genius.  Offensive speed is a brilliant deck that is sure to win plenty of matches.  Reasoning:
-I knew a guy who played a speed deck and won.
-Freud did a form of speed, and invented modern Psychoanalysis.
-Hitler never played a speed deck.

Offense heavy is better than defense heavy unless you're playing online. A perfectly constructed balance is better than both.
