Is a standard legal minotaur deck able to outrun a standard legal control? Or is there no hope?

Sorry if im in wrong section. Im still getting used to this site.

This is the right place to put it. The answer is no, you will not outrun a control deck. Control is far too powerful in standard.

Thats what i figured. Just wondering if theres any twisted cards that i dont know about that might change it. Thanks for the help

While it can't certainly beat control outright, you may have a chance if you include disruption spells such as Thoughtseize or Duress. I'm using a Standard Minotaur Deck now and here it is: Alesha's Bull Whip for your reference.

I personally just don't see any real power in a minotaur deck in standard right now, as to where there are several really powerful control decks going around, all of which is easily adaptable to the metas
