Minotaurs Smash FNM

Standard* Aggro FNM

morscerta


Sideboard

Creature (3)


The basic idea is to use make your minotaurs as nasty as possible and attack attack attack.

Use Fearsome Temper to pull key creatures like ragemonger and Kragma Warcaller out of nuking range and to sneak past a heavy hitting defender.

Use ragemonger's ability to cast minotaurs for cheap and use the extra mana to blow up defenders or tack on even more damage. Flame Wreathed Phoenix draws the attention of kill spells and gives you a little air support.

Fall of the Hammer works great as a cheap kill spell with a Warcaller or two on the field. (Play it after attackers are declared.)

Hero's Downfall is sideboarded because I find the removal potiental from Fall of the Hammer sufficent enough to deal with most threats and double B in the casting cost has a way of eating up the mana I need for another creature.

Spiritbinder pairs beautifully with Warcaller and allows you to push out some massive attacks-I just haven't found the best way to tweak it into the deck. I've thought about dropping Flame-Wreathed Phoenix but I really like the air presence that it gives. However I find removing anything slows the deck down dramatically.

Suggestions? Comments? Throw some improvements at me and lets make minotaurs a thing :D

After several months of play this deck is a serious threat! I removed Hero's Downfall completely. Fall of the Hammer is cheaper and, with Felhide petrified on the board, it's pretty much an instant removal.
