With all those permanents into play, cast squee revenge, and say 20 times, ignore always losing flips so you can deal damage and maybe win the game because of encounter, there is a chart:

0 win 40 lose, ignore 20 of those flips and spirit link is enchanted to minotaur, so you win 20 life.

5--10 win 30 lose, ignore 20 of losing and win because of encounter if you win 10 or deal several damge and win life.

more than 10 winning flips, win always.

Enjoy ^^

My worst MTG nightmare.......if anyone ever played a deck like this against me in tournament, I'd have forfeited purely out of aggravation. Coin flipping in a card game.......ugh.

Hold on, if you flip your first two coins, and they both come up tails, then the minotaur deals one damage giving you one life.

Several notes on this:

Krark's Thumb makes you ignore one of the flips, so it still only counts as one flip. It just gives you a 75% chance of success per flip instead of 50%

With Squee's Revenge, you stop flipping as soon as you lose a flip regardless of the number you chose. So if you lose the first flip, you don't get any more flips. However, if you name a really high number, it may be better to intentionally lose to avoid decking yourself. (remember: anything that triggers on the coin flips does not go on the stack until after Squee's Revenge finishes resolving, so you would lose to failing to draw a card before killing anyone with the Minotaur)

Chance Encounter triggers at the beginning of your next upkeep, so you need to wait until next turn to win.
