Whoa, I never even knew that so many minotaurs existed! Well, since they all have butts of 3 or more, Drown in Sorrow will kill almost everything they have, leaving your stuff with one or more toughness. Sure, they all get -2 power, too, so you can't really attack all that effectively that turn, but at least it wipes part of their board, leaving yours intact. Bile Blight is very good, too, given you can afford the BB cost (which you should be able to do, more often than not, given that you run 3 Urborgs!) and it will wipe out tokens, rabblemasters and other critters without missing a hearbeat. Circle of Flame could be interesting, too, provided they don't run Hall of Triumph or the like (Spear of Heliod, Obelisk of Urd). I'd run 1 or 2 Circles in the sideboard. You might not be able to afford to consistenly cast Searing Blood turns 2 or 3 (especially if you start the game with a T1 Thoughtseize, meaning you'd need black mana turn 1), so I'm conflicted about running it, even in the sideboard. It might prove useful later in the game, though, but I still think magma spray is the best, even when compared to lightning strike. Hope this helps!
