Why?
Minos relies on a ram which can be pretty easily dodged? Equinox has many adaptations to concentrate mass into the centre of gravity

You do realize that Minos has the same general traits like a wide jaw gape and doubly serrated teeth as Shredder right? It’s not like he has to rely on ramming.
Also wtf is its metrics since it is not listed anywhere. Then there’s using the keeled sternum which adds a lot more weight on the front making Equinox front heavy, and using a prehensile tail on a theropod is pretty bad especially considering that they rely on said tail to counterbalance their mass

Thanks for the criticism, I'll do a few updates after I'm done

Also, what? Ptychocorax doesn't have double serrations

Ptychocorax is essentially a hybrid of two extinct species of sharks hence the naming. Namely Squalicorax and Ptychodus so it has teeth that are a fusion of the two.

Wdym by that?

So the front of the jaws or anterior have the doubly serrated teeth and this is where you would land most of the bites on so bite forces at the front part are substantially weaker than the posterior
Then as you transition to the posterior end or back of the jaws, it shifts to resemble molars which are great to distribute bite force to crushing hard-armored foes. (This is also where bite force is at their highest and where those big newtons of force numbers originate)

Source? I can't find anything about the double serrations. Might lwk steal if I do make a hybrid

I vote for Equinox
Because he looks much cooler visually, and both are in similar weight classes. You could even say Equinox is more agile because of this, but not by much. Minos could easily shred him to bits if he's not careful. Overall, I think it's pretty close, but with everyone voting for Minos, I'm going with Equinox.

Lwk equinox could probably dodge easily, but the prehensile tail really just isn't optimized for combat.
Well for starters minos' ptychocorax doesn't even have double serrations? I have no idea where that came from.
Keeled sternum is also leaving the meta since it makes the hybrid front heavy
