I like the suggestions, but I'd like to keep this deck Standard. Because I don't anticipate getting meaningful amounts of land, I'm shying away from Fireball and its hundred knock-offs. If I do get a Fireball, it will probably be Bonfire of the Damned as it is both a one-sided Slagstorm for X and a Fireball.

Consider (like I am for my goblins) Pillar of Flame over galvanic blast.

Agreed. Pulled a couple Pillar of Flame at my Pre-releases and was quite impressed with them. I think I will enjoy Red Sun's Zenith for 2 at only 1 mana. Thanks for the idea, Ohthenoises.

Funny, we typed out our messages at the same time Ohthenoises.

Not surprised it reminded you of Boom goes the goblin!. I took his decklist and swapped cards around to better fit my preferences, play style, and budget.

@Minousmancer yea he asked if he could take the decklist. Told him that I'm sure I wasn't the first to make this deck so feel free lol.

I think that rocks, too funny.
Have either of you thought about adding: Burn at the Stake?

Tinselteeth says... #11
It looks nice and shiny, but by the time I have the mana up for it, my board will be fairly empty one way or another. Also, I want to keep 4 CMC as my highest cost, excluding the Thunderous Wrath I plan on pulling Miracles out of. Burn at the Stake looks like it would work well in my Modern deck (Mogg War Marshal says HAI!), but not so much in this.

I look at it as this. If its turn 5-6 I shouldhave used approx 2 goblins as grenade fodder. If not they probably have died from swinging into blockers.

Usually, I end up using one goblin as grenade fodder and getting a Thunderous miracle and/or Reverberate. The rest get thrown under the bus, especially the Hellrider bus.

maybe Krenko's Command but if not take out 2 Reverberate and replace with 2 Vexing Devil It just is too good of a card not to have a playset of

Pigsfly Reverberate is one of my win-cons. I might be willing to bump it down to a 3-set, but not a 2-set. As for Krenko's Command , Mogg War Marshal seems to do well as a Goblin generator already. Ideally, I can get 3 useful goblins out of him: the War Marshal himself in addition to his 2 flunkies.

Goblin King would absolutely destroy opponents when you have Blood Moon on the field. :)

Ahh yes, I forgot about the King. And I might even already have a 3-set for the sideboard!

Why not Lightning Bolt over Galvanic Blast? Or Rift Bolt...
A sideboard would be helpful too. Gutteral Response (sp?) is good. Some artifact and graveyard hate ala Smash to Smitherines (sp?), Tormod's Crypt, Relic of Progenitus, and Grafdigger's Cage. Red Sun's Zenith is great to exile stuff. Slagstorm is a sweet boardsweep. Corrosive Gale for flyers...
