Get It?

At Journey into Nyx Prerelease I happened upon a group of minotaur cards that led me to a 3-1 record. I was so in love with these guys that I made a constructed minotaur deck that was fun to play and pretty dang affordable!

Now you may be asking... "Why on EARTH would minotaurs be a good idea?!?"

Well slow down there bucko' I haven't even explained my deck yet ...jeez.

Creatures

• Gnarled Scarhide - This guy is an all star as he is a great 1 drop along with his bestow which can buff your cow people or get rid of the opponents pesky defender, deathtouch annoying thing

• Deathbellow Raider - A nice 2 drop with regenterate, who could complain?

• Felhide Petrifier - He gives deathtouch to everything, scaring people away from blocking or attacking your beautiful minotaurs.

• Rageblood Shaman - Buffs your minotaurs bigger than any other animal on the barnyard

• Kragma Warcaller - Gives atticking minotaurs WHAT?

• Ragemonger - This is the creme dela creme of the minotaur deck. Gnarled Scarhide for free? Kragma Warcalle for 3? Yes Please!

• Mogis, God of Slaughter - The game has to end some time and this giant moo moo cow is gonna wrap it up in a nice present and send it off to grandma's house.

Sorcerys/Instants

• Magma Jet - Scry 2 after I deal two, good for quick damage/removal

• Mizzium Mortars - Cows hate Bloodbaron of vizkopa, Archangel of Thune, ect and love board wipes.

• Dreadbore - All the minotaurs need your help to remove things they can't. (they're not invincible after all)

Enchantment

• Whip of Erebos - Lets you heal up by drinking all the cow milk like a deranged loonatic!

Sideboard Explained:

This is the first deck I have ever had that a sideboard didn't just sit there ...on the side...

• Dark Betrayal , and Doom Blade are conditional, not every meta deck is weak to them so they are logically in the sideboard. They could take the space of whatever instant or sorcery I feel is less useful in the match-up.

• Magma Spray - Its the new Pillar of Flame and strictly better than Shock and great for dealing with graveyard effects like Voice of Resurgence

• Slaughter Games - Looking at you Shadowborn Apostle and Pack Rat.

• Felhide Spellbinder - you can never have too many cows.

• Door of Destinies - Can take the place of Whip of Erebos if need be.

Now, with all of that said, I would like to bring you a...

RANDOM DISCLAIMER:

"This deck is by no means the best competitive deck, if you want to win on the cheap then check out Charge of the Budget Brigade (which isn't my deck totes obvi) or pay like $400 for a winning deck. Mythical Minotaur Madness is my attempt at a cool, fun, and different deck. Of course all advice / suggestions are welcome.

Go Minotaurs!
