    sideboard:
    3x Destructive Urge    (Nice with Hellrider, and offsets Ruinous)
    2x Outmaneuver         (Same, as above)
    2x Spontaneous Combustion  (need more, esp with Flurry@!!!) 
    1-3x Exhume (since you're sac'n and they will be too)
    -3 Skull Rend  (Pah! @5mana? I.E. Extort/Duress/Lava Axe or...?)

    -2 Runinous Minotaur
    +2 Hellrider



    ..and you can pull out the Crypt Angel now. Just sac' with Sponteneous/Extort to destroy any opposition and take all their lands.


    Might want to stick in something for blue though, like "Boil/boiling seas" or even "Panic" ...but now we're getting a little off theme.
    There's also some other minotaurs -Talruum, Zerapa and Anaba Shaman- -which would ROCK with the Destructive Urge.

      What kind of Hellion? Caldera? I have one that I had in this deck, but I ended up pulling it- although I can see why you're saying to add it back.
      Other than that, a lot of this is sound- for the most part, some of the cards in this deck is scrap that I added in to make it playable when I noticed how many bloody minos this deck had. It used to be a "I'm just gonna be an ass and have a ton of destroy cards". Then I started mino focusing, and the rest is history.
      The skull rends are proof of this. I'm not fond of it as a card, but the reactions it gets when you pull it is pretty funny. "Oh god... ANOTHER skull rend?" but yeah, it doesn't really fit the deck
      Crypt Angel I like, but I think I'm probably gonna put it in an EDH deck I've been poking at making.

        typo- I meant some more "Hellriders" -but they're devils. They're fun in the combo here, but off theme, except maybe in the picture.
        • Mikael Brooks | 01-Sep-2014 18:06
          "I swing with everything!"
          "Okay, I block-"
          "Your dead."
          "What?"
          "Hellrider."
          "... fuck..."
          Fun? They're the meaning of fun.

      The blue issue also isn't AS problematic for me- I only really play with two people, only one of them uses blue (It's rare, and he runs blue beatdown, no cancles or anything) and the other one thinks blue is kinda cheap. That's a solution to the issue in and of itself.
      • SquigglyWiggley | 01-Sep-2014 16:51
        I hear ya. I forget sometimes that we're posting decks we use and play with as much as make.
        I made a copy and tinkered with it (looks like you saw) and I'm still debating adding a 3rd mana color- green has some old cool enchantements, but there's a blue-red minotar that deals with flying as I recall -which with some of those old tripple mana.... pah.
        I like it black and red.
        • Mikael Brooks | 01-Sep-2014 18:04
          If you splash a bit of blue in, you can toss some cancels, which is always fun.
          But yeah. Black and red is fun. It's just sorta chaotic and violent- I love the way it works in this deck. I had a shadow of death in it at one point, just because it's just like "BAM! Big monster that costs one mana, whatcha gonna do now?" But it didn't exactly fit perfectly, so I moved it into my Golgari/infect deck (Summon it early, it gets -20/-20 due to high life and dies, hits the graveyard, Varolz exiles it for 13 +1/+1 counters for only 1 black mana. Plenty of fun!)
