Bree-yark means "I Surrender!" in Goblin.


Cast Krenko, tap and untap Krenko a bunch of times, make goblins at a geometric rate. Use those goblins for fun and profit. To cast the big burn spells you need either Skirk Prospector , Phyrexian Altar or Ashnod's Altar . If you don't have them (or they get removed) then just make enough goblins to overrun any defenders.

KILL cards let us destroy our enemies, either through single target spells/effects or hitting them all. Instant speed total death is preferable - Massive Raid or Ghitu Fire . Banefire for 40 will do it too, and it can't be countered.

BASIC GOBBOS are goblins that have some situational use beyond just being a goblin on the field. When Treasure Nabber steals your opponents mana rocks, you can use Slobad, Goblin Tinkerer to sac each rock after you use it so they don't get their rock back. Or sac a goblin through Goblin Trashmaster to destroy the rock after you've tapped it.

Krenko's Emporium of Gently Used Goblins has a constant need for more goblins, so the DRAW MORE GOBBOS cards will let you do just that. If that's not enough for ya, sometimes we can get FREE GOBBOS by cheating them out of our hand onto the battlefield.

MANA cards either get you more mana or let you use yours more efficiently, including both mana generators and cost reducers. Some goblins are good at making others goblins gooderer, so those LORDS are important if you want to smash goblins into your opponents.

Only tapping Krenko once per turn is boring and probably a rule made up by some no-fun loving Azorius nerd, so we need to UNTAP KRENKO as much as possible to get him tapping back and forth. Once you've made those precious little gobbos you need to be able to immediately throw them at the enemy, so HASTE cards get them jumping.


I've been playing this deck for over a year and it's really helped me understand how Combo play works in EDH. Krenko can be more than just "I make a lot of goblins and swing for lethal", and it's been neat learning how to use the goblins as a resource to do other things instead of just attacking.
