This is not my first attempt at trying to make a good minotaur tribal deck for commander. I have had some success, and a lot of failure, but one thing I have always hoped for was an appropriate Minotaur legend to use as my commander to give me access to all the powerful black cards available in the format, mainly Patriarch's Bidding and Demonic Tutor. Mogis, God of Slaughter is obviously not a minotaur. He is, however, a God. Not just any God, but the Minotaur God! So flavorfully, he seemed to fit.
So, I present to you, Mogis and his Minotaur Horde!
I have tried to make this tribe into a more casual deck, and it leaves me sitting sad and demolished at my table when some more competitive players, but I originally decided to build this deck so I could enjoy playing with the more casual players at my store. So I chose to comprimise. The deck is inherintly casual, and I will play it as such, but I put a few more spikey into the deck to make the deck flow better and let me draw and cast the few Minotaurs that are actually worth playing.
So, I present to you, Mogis and his Minotaur Horde!
