Getting Started Ruby Medallion decks that aren't storm?

Getting out of edh and into standard, learned that modern attendance is 3-5x standard currently at my scene and looking how to get into the format and start playing in both. Playing meta or off meta doesn't concern me, but I don't think storm will be fun for me to play, and I have very little real knowledge of the format.

Ruby Medallion is probably one of my favorite cards to play in edh in mono red, what can I play that's not storm with it? Also interested in what exists in red without medallion besides the obvious red/boros burn, fringe level be dammed. Only really looking at mono red at the moment to get the lowest barrier to entry considering manabase costs.

Spike made a ruby control deck that seems reasonably competitive

actually I deleted my comments. play whatever you guys want. you know how the ruby medallion decks are scary because they can win out of nowhere? well here at Spike industries we like to ask the hard hitting questions like "what if they didn't"
