aholder7 thank you so much for your detailed comment , i appreciate it and I completely see what you're tying to suggest. I'll definitely try it the way you posted above. Btw My initial idea was to have low cost disruption spell to mess with the opponent and to have cards like Bloodrage Brawler and Bone Shards to enable early turns Unearth to cheat from graveyard minotaurs and to have as fast as possible the requisite for Neheb, the Worthy ability. and yes Kragma Warcaller felt very slow for this idea. Do you think that this way the deck can somehow works? Thank you for your time :)

I'm a big fan of minotaurs as well. The main thing you will need to contend with for minotaurs is that despite being red/black it's not very fast without something like Aether Vial to drop additional threats. And if it's trying to go fast cards like Kragma Warcaller are going to come down way too late. The second big problem you will be fighting is card advantage. I know that you are trying to get the 1 card or less ability on Neheb, the Worthy but every card is a resource and you are throwing yours away with cards like Bone Shards and Bloodrage Brawler. You'll get down to 1 card in hand pretty easily if your curve is lower. Third problem. All of the good creatures are at 3 mana. you have Neheb, the Worthy, Rageblood Shaman, Glint-Horn Buccaneer, Felhide Petrifier, and Ragemonger.

So is all lost for the horned and hooved? I think we can make it work (though if you just like tribal and don't care which tribe, vampires might be a better BR tribe for you). It might shift how the deck feels a bit. Even looking at other minotaurs not in your list there just aren't enough good ones at low CMCs to make this an aggro deck. Territorial Kavu is going to be a 2 mana 5/5 with no downsides for decks that want it. a Bloodrage Brawler just won't compete on speed and power. So i suggest embracing the slowness and trying to fight as a midrange deck where we want the game to go a bit longer.

I think you can utilize cards like Sardian Cliffstomper and Glint-Horn Buccaneer that work well in a grindier game. You could also use a couple discard spells like Inquisition of Kozilek to help fill out the low end of your curve. Neheb, the Worthy also pairs nicely with Felhide Petrifier.

lastly Rakdos Charm is an amazing spell, but it should probably be in your sideboard, not your mainboard.

could end up something like this

-3 Bone Shards -4 Rakdos Charm -4 Bloodrage Brawler -1 Neheb, the Worthy -3 Neheb, Dreadhorde Champion

+4 Inquisition of Kozilek +2 Duress (or whatever other discard spell you like) +4 Sardian Cliffstomper +2 Felhide Petrifier +3 Glint-Horn Buccaneer

Looking at what you have here, it seems similar to the early stages of my minotaurs. It evolved into this: Yo' mama got banged by a bull!

What you really should consider adding are 2-drops. Deathbellow Raider and Bloodrage Brawler are incredible cards that really help to apply early pressure.

Nice deck. If you’re running Bloodrage Brawler, perhaps Rotting Regisaur is a possible card to consider? The constant discard can sometimes be problematic, but it’s a huge body and if your deck is looking to discard a lot, then maybe it’s worth considering. I’m not sure about your budget, but if you’re willing to stretch then Grim Flayer also seems strong. It’s a low drop aggressive creature that will help fill your graveyard pretty quickly, although if you’re looking to go all in on discard perhaps might not fit as well. Finally, Key to the City is my personal favourite card for discard decks, being able to get through your big creatures to end games is always good value. Hope this is helpful.

Sweet brew. Personally, I'd cut Kragma Warcaller, as it's a bit overcosted IMO, maybe in favor of another two Bloodrage Brawlers. Yes, it's significant card disadvantage, which pretty much relegates it to situational applications in extremely low-to-the-ground aggro decks, but it synergizes with Neheb, the Worthy, which is, functionally, a less expensive Warcaller when active. In addition, I'd shave off a few copies of both Neheb, Dreadhorde Champion and Neheb, the Worthy; it's never good to draw a dead copy of a legendary creature as the game progresses. It's not necessarily a bad idea to replace them with some efficient card-draw like Night's Whisper, as well as removal, a suggestion also made by Balaam__

I would recommend Bloodrage Brawler instead of Deathbellow Raider, The discard might help get neheb's ability

Have you thought about making this deck mono-red? It may be a little more consistent with the rest of your aggressive threats. Bomat Courier is pretty good as it allows to get big discard and draw turns in allowing you to fuel your ox reanimation and the rest of your deck. Hazoret's Monument is good too as in mono-red, or nearly mono-red you get discounted spell and a lot of filtering. Bloodrage Brawler is an aggressive typed creature that discards.
