Im abit new so what is IV? And sometimes i find the deck a bit... Weak. Just because i have a good starting hand but keep drawing 1 drops. So i get little puny 1/1 for the next turns waiting for a good burn or koth. Did you ever experienced that? In dont want to be a bug you are far more experienced than i am ;)

A lot of playing this deck is mind games. If you strike up a conversation with your op you can distract him from seeing that you have a bunch if 1/1s. Also, make them think you have brimstone volley and don't swing while tapped out if you can help it. What no one where I play has realized that 100% of my damage comes from creatures. Kill my creatures and I can't kill you. I haven't ever had those dry spells you were talking about in tournament play but I have in casual games just keep them on the defensive and your burn should win out.

This looks very, very fun. You mind if I use this as a template for if/when I convert my Modern Goblins to Standard?

Nice little deck you've got there. It makes a very interesting matchup against other RDW. +1 to you.

Here's a nice little mirror for people to play with.

Goblins. Need I Say More?

Swapped out Koth of the HammerMTG Card: Koth of the Hammer for Thunderous WrathMTG Card: Thunderous Wrath and replaced the Spikeshot ElderMTG Card: Spikeshot Elder and a Mountain with a HellriderMTG Card: Hellrider, a Goblin GrenadeMTG Card: Goblin Grenade, a ReverberateMTG Card: Reverberate, and something else I can't remember for the life of me :-). Please play the mirror match and tell me how it goes. I'm taking a friend to Game Day and need to build a second, budget-friendly, competitive deck for her.

I wish I could mention how much I hate RDW...see, I've never been a red guy and playing against this deck at my FNM (only difference that I know of is I think he's less the Goblin GrenadeMTG Card: Goblin Grenades for the Shrine of Burning RageMTG Card: Shrine of Burning Rage), has proven unbeatable (with the exception of mana screw/flood) with my elves in deck:from-elves-to-ooze (Rename pending). So I was just wondering...do you have any ideas for any green cards to help stop this, and other mirror decks, in the early game so that I can reach my win-con (which if one of my ramp elves get burned is turn ~6ish).

Would much appreciated it :) and btw, you deck is probably...correction, is the best RDW/Goblin deck that I've seen. Already given my +1

4x Predator OozeMTG Card: Predator Ooze 4x Increasing SavageryMTG Card: Increasing Savagery. Unless he splashes black for Tragic SlipMTG Card: Tragic Slip or gets the DismemberMTG Card: Dismember off at JUST the right turn he has a 7/7 swinging into his throat that he cant kill. This is especially effective if you are able to keep that turn 1 mana dork alive because you turn 2 the ooze and turn 3 the savagery then you use the mana dork as a blocker for the big threats. The trick with shrine is is is TERRIBLY slow. I mean, yea, it can get pretty intimidating but keep in mind he has to stop his tempo to pop it whereas I don't with mine. (hence the reason there are't any shrines here.) Another thing to keep in mind is this: Decks like mine (and from what I gather, his) almost 90% of the damage is coming from his creatures whither it is from their deaths triggering morbid or goblin grenade it all comes from creatures so chances are unless he is holding a brimstone volley he wont block you. (plus he doesn't want to make your ooze any bigger.)

Thunderous WrathMTG Card: Thunderous Wrath combos well with ReverberateMTG Card: Reverberate. It just sucks hard if you pull it in your opening hand.

April 30, 2012 4:51 p.m.

remember, the miracle doesnt count if its in your opening hand bro...+1
