So replace duress with thoughtsieze. How about the removal package?

TreeSmoker

This looks like a budget Minotaur deck
Have you played a Fnm with it?

Yeah replace the duress with thoughtsieze. Also if u can afford it, {hero's downfall} is a very nice addition in place of the doom blade and ultimate price

FanaticOfRakdos

It is a budget deck i was thinking of playing and adding more pricier/and optimal cards as i get more experienced with the deck. I was originally going to put hero's downfall but i figured i needed more one and two cmc romoval and disruption. Also i thought about read the bones as well

With 24 lands, 3 mana removal is not a problem. I might go to 23 lands if I were you, and 22 if you wanted to be a bit risky. Probably stick with 23.

FanaticOfRakdos

Cut a mountain or swamp? And replace it with what? Thanks for all the suggestions. Looking forward to playing this at fnm after an extended hiatus (zendikar/scars format)

Ekann1

What's your budget like? Could you afford 3 {Hero's Downfall}?

FanaticOfRakdos

Probably. Im not going to drop more than 100.00  at once. I'll put a hundred down then gradually add more money cards each week.

Ekann1

Ok, more than I thought you'd want to spend. Now I can suggest even more expensive things! :P

Suggestions to come in a minute.

Ekann1

+1 {temple of malice}
-2 {swamp}
-2 {dreadbore}
+2 {hero's downfall}
+2 {boros reckoner}
-4 {duress}
+3 {thoughtsieze}

You could go the {boros reckoner} and {nykthos, shrine to nyx} devotion route, or the {mutavault} and less colored mana symbols route. Your decision, probably based around how many control decks and {supreme verdict}s you see.

FanaticOfRakdos

I see. Im not sure what my lgs meta is, but im going to scout it out and piece this deck together with the appropiate pieces . Thanks for the suggestions and help :D

Ekann1

Well, you can always change it the more you figure out your meta. Have fun and go minotaurs! :P

Reckoner is really god with fanatic of mogis and just in general. Try it as your first change I'd say. Also, {fell hide petrifier} with reckoner gives you an unbeatable blocker.
