I am finally trying to get into competitive play starting in Mid-August. However, I need help building a deck that will work for me. My specialty lies with red/black decks. I seem to be very good at playing those style of deck. So I tried to build a red/black Minotaur deck. However, the price of the deck is a bit much.
Could someone please help me with this deck? I would like to drop it to about an average of $75-$80 and have a side deck to aid me in competitive tournaments. The deck is Minotaur Rampage. Thanks.

I don't want to sound discouraging, but competitive Magic is expensive. Do you have stuff to trade for the cards you need? That helps keep the cost down.

Dropping the price at this point is pretty bad, you can always substitute the blood crpyts for guildgates, but you are sacrificing a lot of speed. However, that will allow you to make the changes I already suggested and still land within your budget.
3 Pithing Needle
3 Shock
2 Fall of the Hammer
2 Doom Blade
1 Homing Lightning - for blood baron of viskopa
3 Dark Betrayal
1 Whip of Erebos
It should give you a lot more control vs the control decks, while having more numerous threats than them. Also, it would give you more legs/ aggression vs devotion decks and control.
