You Shall Block My Creatures!

Voracious Cobra and Gorilla Berserkers maybe.
If you put in a red "take an extra attack phase after this one" card you can either attack two opponents OR attack one, murder all his creatures and then attack again while you still have the massive bonus to stats
I don't think you really need Genesis Chamber, Goblin Anarchomancer or Gorm the Great

Gorm the Great would be perfect here.

Creatures with Vigilance and creatures that opponents do NOT want unblocked. Having to attack removes blockers
Virtus the Veiled and his partner Gorm the Great fit
Abilities that require tapping allow you to not attack if you need that : Kyren Negotiations
I like Thantis a lot more than Windgrace. Give him Fists of the Demigod or Kusari-Gama and people will have to attack but be afraid to attack you

i should have been more descriptive
when i said
competitive edh meant consistent win con by turn 5
semi casual means consistent win con turns 5+
and casual means win con turns 10+
its in reference to the tuning of the deck
if a deck is tuned well enough to consistently produce a win con turn 5 or sooner
that does not mean every game will be over in 5 turns
it just means if gone unchecked the deck is capable of doing it consistently
and yes to date in main stream there has been only a couple that have been recorded to go off by turn 3
but i assure you there are many edh decks that consistently end the game turns 3-4 if gone unchecked
you dont see them main stream because
partly all the data has not been recorded
and mostly because the majority of them do so by removing one player per turn till t3-4
since this is not a guarantee win the game tactic
and also it leaves 3-4 rounds to be put in check
most disregard these decks as cedh qualified
but that does not make them any less lethal
for one example
i personally played against a
Virtus the Veiled & Gorm the Great
that was tuned to level to consistently end the game by turn 3 if gone unchecked
it will never see the glory of main stream listing
because in cedh theres just to many ways to stop it from winning
however i personally still consider it as competitive
because it is still remarkably deadly
no matter what everyone at the table is going to have to blow resources to keep it in check

Giant's Deck

It looks like the spoilers that I put the non-Boros giant suggestions aren't working. So weird. I'll try to reconstruct what I suggested.
So I know you had your heart set on Brion as your commander, but I wanted to list all the good giants with , and in their colors, as there are a bunch that are excellent. Brion doesn't bring much to the giant-tribal table other than a small-ish lifelinking Giant body and occasional face-damage. You may want to use Iroas, God of Victory or Kalemne, Disciple of Iroas as your commander if you're dead-set on staying Boros colors. If the idea of fully exploring Giants in Magic's history is the goal, and being the most Giant-y deck, having more colors or all five colors will give you a greater creature spread and significantly help with the deck's function.
Arbor Colossus - great rate! Worth considering
Beanstalk Giant - ramp AND a giant body! Worth considering
Earthshaker Giant
- Worth considering
Garenbrig Paladin - playable, but probably wouldn't make the cut in a five-color deck
Gorm the Great - interesting choice, and nice at four mana, but probably not worth a slot
Marshdrinker Giant - odd removal piece.
Nylea's Colossus - good effect even without a ton of enchantment support. Worth considering
Outland Colossus - Worth considering
Rampart Smasher - watch out, Knights! Probably wouldn't make the cut
Skyshroud Troll - Regeneration is always nice, but the stats aren't great
Sunder Shaman - fucking awesome giant. One of the best reasons to consider running Green cards. Can't recommend enough.
Swarmborn Giant - kinda a weird one, but interesting nonetheless
Towering Titan - potentially awesome! Worth considering
Uro, Titan of Nature's Wrath - fucking incredible. Pretend you're terrorizing standard! That pricetag though :(
Valleymaker - very interesting utility. Potentially worth considering, but might not make the cut in a five-color deck.
Yorvo, Lord of Garenbrig - Absolutely stellar Giant. three on-color might be hard to swing in a five-color deck, although any deck would probably lean Green due to ramp and utility. Very much worth considering.
Frost Titan - outstanding giant. One excellent reason to run Blue. Highly recommended, like all the titans. Too bad Prime-Time is banned! (Primeval Titan)
Galecaster Colossus - extremely strong Giant. better in Wizard-tribal decks, but is still really good on its own.
Oloro, Ageless Ascetic - A real powerhouse. Highly recommended
Ruhan of the Fomori - Another excellent giant. Highly recommended
Skaab Goliath - Pretty decent. Might not make the cut in 5-color but worth considering]
Thryx, the Sudden Storm - Incredible! Ramp AND a flying body. A perfect reason to run Blue. Highly recommended
Bartel Runeaxe - this is a giant. Probably only worth running for the memes. Expensive too. A piece of Giant Magic history though.
Doomwake Giant - Pretty decent even without Enchantment support--lots of one-toughness support creatures out there.
Erebos's Titan - slightly recursive threat. Decent
Grave Titan - an utter powerhouse. One of the best giants. Highly recommended
Grixis Slavedriver - decent for a common. Probably not quite worth a slot.
Helldozer - pretty good! Three on-color might be hard but the payoff is huuuge.
Knight of the Last Breath - leaving behind blockers is pretty good. (Mana)-expensive though.
Kroxa, Titan of Death's Hunger - Pretend you're terrorizing Standard!! Incredible Giant, but expensive.
Necrosavant - recursive creature, but you probably don't want to be sacrificing giants
Nightfire Giant - could be decent utility. Not the strongest giant but worth looking at
Tithebearer Giant - good for a common I suppose!
So as you can see, there are a bunch of fantastic Giants outside of Red and White colors. The stand-outs on a budget are:
Arbor Colossus - Beanstalk Giant - Earthshaker Giant - Outland Colossus - Sunder Shaman - Yorvo, Lord of Garenbrig - Frost Titan - Ruhan of the Fomori - Thryx, the Sudden Storm - Helldozer
I should have a Frost Titan, Arbor Colossus, and Outland Colossus for trade.
Once you have the deck for a while, snagging Grave Titan - Oloro, Ageless Ascetic - Kroxa, Titan of Death's Hunger - Uro, Titan of Nature's Wrath- Towering Titan as upgrades would be well-worth it.

Hey, just noticed that you are short one card unless Quartzwood Crasher is in sideboard by mistake.
After a commented I made a while back, I built a similar deck to this one. A couple good mutate targets I put in there are Virtus the Veiled and Gorm the Great. I recommend these two over Nullhide Ferox and Swiftblade Vindicator.
