Ciao Yogei! I'm glad you joined my group of ultra-budget deck lovers XD. i don't play Kragma Warcaller because I prefer to be fast in my deck,5 mana for a card it's too much. i saw your deck,the problem in minotaur tribal is that there are too many 3-drop and few in 1/2 mana. i suggest you Burning-Fist Minotaur,Changeling Outcast and Gnarled Scarhide to play something the first few turns. I made a lot of decks, take a look ;)

(This would be Neheb, but the plotline sort or requires that it can't be, so it's another minotaur from the same tribe.
I've also considered redoing it as Angrath's mentor from his so-far-unnamed plane)

Deck Name: Your Time Has Come
Plane: Amonkhet
Commander

Benroch, Making Plans  |  Benroch, Chosen Moment
Legendary Planeswalker - Benroch  |  Legendary Creature - Minotaur Shaman
+1: Create a 2/2 black Spirit Minotaur creature token with haste, vanishing 2 and "when this creature deals damage to a player, put a time counter on it"

-X: Move X time counters from suspended cards onto one or more permanents you control with time counters. You may transform Benroch, Making Plans.

Benroch, Making Plans can be your commander.
Eminence - As long as Benroch, Making Plans is in the command zone or on the battlefield, red and black cards in your hand have Supend X-1 -- where X is its converted mana cost

Menace, trample

Benroch, Chosen Moment gets +1/+1 for each suspended card and permanent with a time counter you control. If you have one or fewer cards in your hard, Benroch, Chosen Moment gets +2/+2 for each instead.

: Exile a red or black card from your hand or graveyard with X-1 time counters on it where X is its converted mana cost. It gains suspend.
Loyalty: 4 | 0/0

Spark: Having trouble clarifying this in my mind, but his main thing is a sort of temporal manipulation that manifested originally as superior reaction times, but became the ability to jump back and forth over short swaths of time and eventually between planes

Deck Concept: Using suspend to enable hellbent and "one or fewer card in hand" effects as well as being fairly minotaur tribal

Sample cards: Burning-Fist Minotaur, Neheb, the Worthy, Ragemonger, Flurry of Horns, Kragma Warcaller, Rift Elemental, Lavacore Elemental, Rift Bolt, Shivan Sand-Mage, Waning Wurm, Festering March, Curse of the Cabal, Time Bomb

clentdc Baral, Chief of Compliance is too slow for my deck. The only spells his first ability would reduce are Lightning Strike, Abrade and 1 X off Syncopate. I'm considering taking out Syncopate for something more aggro-y like Invigorated Rampage, Run Amok or Burning-Fist Minotaur.

DMFF thanks alot! yeah I have been playing this a lot on fridays and actually havent lost a match with it yet. The very closest I came to losing was to affinity, but he got flooded just in time for me to come back, so I lucked out. but it definitely surprises people, and they have no idea how to side against it.

It seems that I lose most of my game 1s though, which is never a good place to start. I can side in Blood Moon and damping sphere against most match ups, and it almost makes me think main board Blood Moon would be good.

ZorrosRage thanks for the suggestions, I have tried tinkering with the madness cards a bit, and they are just a little too unreliable. I know I am getting a nonbo interaction when I play Bloodrage Brawler without them, but usually I have an extra land to pitch that doesnt really hurt me too much. I like the idea of running Burning-Fist Minotaur though, but would have to swap out the Metallic Mimic for him.

Gnarled Scarhide performs a lot better for me than I initially expected. Bestow is a really crazy effect. It makes it so my Neheb, the Worthy can get over a potential defender really easily, and then protects from a board wipe by letting me keeps some board presence after everything dies. The other trick he is good for is to bestow on your opponent's good blocker, because it makes it so the bestowed creature can't block. I have stolen a few games like that and it feels dirty, but really good.

Overall I think the scarhide is a fine addition to the list, but I cant help but hope for some new rakdos minotaur one drop with hybrid mana from return to return to ravnica.

since you are using Bloodrage Brawler can possibly use Burning-Fist Minotaur, and Collective Brutality for Madness enablers. gives you access to a few potential side cards Fiery Temper, Alms of the Vein and Dark Withering. Just thought it was a fun idea

also do you like Gnarled Scarhide? I know he is your only 1 drop but not sure if he is worth it.

Definitely recommend a playset of Gnarled Scarhide as a super strong 1-drop Minotaur. Burning-Fist Minotaur and Bloodrage Brawler are a couple other low-curve Minotaurs worth considering over Skeletal Changeling. Also strongly recommend upgrading the Lightning Bolt to a playset; best red common in the game.

Ahn-Crop Crasher is a super strong Minotaur that's good enough to be played in Standard right now.
