Deck discussion for Standard Minotaurs!

But... Mogis's Marauders aren't even minotaurs, how can they be the featured card? XD

I like it, although I personally would never consider spear here, or even white in general. It feels... slow, while red/black would probably be efficient.

Oh my gosh, I was merely assuming Mogis's Marauders were mino's! Haha that's hilarious! I will have to change it. It looks so very minotaur!

Splashing white enables me to take on a lot of different deck types. I was playing a Rakdos aggro/devotion hybrid that was similar in feel to this, and it got stumped on occasion. Having Banishing light allows me to gain powerful spot removal for things like Master of Waves, Nightveil Specter, Desecration Demon, and of course planeswalkers, gods, and weapons. Going further Boros Charm saves my creatures from the inevitable Supreme Verdict or spot removal from my opponent, plus the added utility it provides. If I'm already splashing white... then Iroas can win me games turned on or even turned off. Spear of Heliod works devotion to turn on Iroas, and also allows my creatures to escape Anger of the Gods.

Thanks for the "LIKE"! please feel free to give feedback on this or any of my other decks!

I have a (mostly) Minotaur dega deck as well, but as far as mana fixing goes, I threw a couple Springleaf Drums and a Chromatic Lantern in, along with a Burnished Hart. The Blood Barons and Tesya also help out quite a bit lol. Feel free to check out my deck if you'd like! Awesome deck you have though!

Good suggestions. In order to keep the speed up I would consider using Mana Confluence. This deck is a little more aggro and a little less mid-range. I can lose a few life in order to end the game as quickly as possible.
