I would suggest Impact Tremors, since it would work really well with Krenko, Mob Boss.

Altar of the Brood for control, it should be on the sideboard. +1 all the way.

Duckling says... #5

Thanks guys! I added two of each to my sideboard, they'll both need to be playtested :)

You still need to fix the amount of damage it can do.

Duckling says... #10

Haha yeah electromancer, it's certainly not going to happen often, but I commonly find myself doing around 100 damage on turn 4, which certainly isn't something to complain about.

micah1, I'm not sure I fully know what you mean about fixing the damage, if you could clarify what I did wrong please tell me!

Thanks guys :)

micah1 says... #11

Tomorrow, I'll tell you the actual amount you can do. It's over a thousand.

Why not T1 Goblin Guide.

T2 Goblin Guide + Goblin Guide

T3 Goblin Grenade + Goblin Guide .

Seriously though, multiple guide hands are nuts, your opponent usually can't do much about it. +1 from me.

Very nice +1

Duckling says... #14

kameenook yeah that's another way for a quick win! I put my turn three example as something that just came to mind, but yeah there are definitely tons of ways to win!. (Legion Loyalist) also gives them trample and they can't be blocked by tokens, therefore I put him in on my turn 3. There are so many ways to win quickly, it's a ton of fun haha! Thanks a lot for the +1 and I'm glad you like it!

ian0490 Thanks a lot!

I appreciate it guys! :)

So check my math... I might have calc'd this wrong (if so please let me know where).

T1: Goblin Guide (1 goblin)T2: Warren Instigator (2 goblins)T3: Goblin Chieftain + Goblin Rabblemaster + Krenko, Mob Boss = 5 goblins. Tap Krenko, Mob Boss for 5, giving you a total of 10 goblins so far.T4: Legion Loyalist (11 goblins) + Shared Animosity.
- Move to attack, get Goblin Rabblemaster's free goblin (12 goblins).
- Tap Krenko, Mob Boss for 12 goblins = 23 untapped goblins all of which get +1/+1 from Goblin Chieftain (except Goblin Chieftain). - Attack with all 23 and Goblin Rabblemaster gets +22/+0 from his ability, and +22/+0 from Shared Animosity (47 damage) + Goblin Guide (25 damage) + 21 goblins with 24 power (24*21 = 504 damage).

So 504 + 47 + 25 = 576 First Strike, Trample.

Oh wow, thanks DarkJester187! That's 100% correct! I'll have to change it to that, credits to you of course!

May 21, 2015 4:01 p.m.

Duckling says... #17

You forgot the Warren Instigator DarkJester187! It goes up to a solid 600!!

May 21, 2015 4:09 p.m.

Lord_Grimm says... #18

Glad I could help. Took longer for me to add all that up than I care to admit. Looks as though you may have a rogue 48 damage in your description calculation still...

May 21, 2015 4:10 p.m.

Lord_Grimm says... #19

Oh crap! The double strike!! Wow!!

May 21, 2015 4:12 p.m.

Lord_Grimm says... #20

So 504 + 47 + 25 + 24 (from double strike) = 600 First Strike, Trample.

I love this deck. Goblins have always been my favourite tribe out of all. Back when I was little everybody only wanted to collect big creatures like Krosan Cloudscraper, Krosan Colossus or the awesome Shivan Dragon so I got myself a lot of awesome little goblins in good trades! I really miss those days. And it's just a shame that Goblin Piledriver is too old for modern: "Throw enough goblins at any problem and it should go away. At the very least, there'll be fewer goblins."

Darkjester, that's closer, but not quite there. It's not that your math is wrong, your card choices are wrong. Let's do it right this time.

T1: Cavern of Souls, Goblin Guide. 5 cards in hand, 1 goblin in play.

T2: Mountain, Warren Instigator. 4 cards in hand, 2 goblins in play.

T3: Mountain, Goblin Chieftain. Attack with instigator, get Krenko, Mob Boss in for first trigger, tap for 4 goblins before normal damage (double strike attack 2), then get another krenko out, sacing the first one, tap krenko for 7 more goblins. 1 card in hand, 14 goblins in play.

T4: Shared Animosity, activate krenko, get 14 more goblins. 28 Goblins. 25 power buff from the Chieftain (excluding krenko, chieftain, and warren instigator, which has doublestrike), natural power of (excluding the tapped krenko and warren instigator, which will come later because of doublestrike) 4 from chieftain and guide, and 24 from tokens (28 total). then you have the +27/+0 buff to 26 creatures (excluding instigator), which is 702. Now for instigator, which is a natural power of 1, gets a buff from chieftan, so 2, then gets plus +27/+0, so a 29 power double striker, so 58 damage. Except, with your first strike trigger from instigator, get a goblin chieftain in with it, giving a buff for the normal damage, giving it another damage, so 59, that then adds another 26 power total to your other creatures. So, 25+28+702+59. 814 damage on turn 4. No cards in hand anymore.

micah1 says... #23

It do be 814 damage. Copy and paste my comment to update the description.

May 21, 2015 4:32 p.m.

micah1 says... #24

That is also on the play. You will NOT get more damage on the draw, a whopping damage increase of 0. You cannot get more damage, I believe.

Duckling says... #25

micah1 Woah! Does that really work with Warren Instigator's ability?!
