My original idea featured Lingering Souls; though it turns out that mono-red rides a lot more smoothly. The blue splash for goblin electormancer is iffy, as I am two short on Sulfur Falls. Through playtesting, though, the deck has not had too much trouble.
Essentially, the plan is to get, say, 4 creatures out including at least two goblins. Sacing a Goblin for mana by turn 4 or 5, or casting Battle Hymn is often enough to win that turn so long as either Burn at the Stake +
Massive Raid
or Blasphemous Act/
Into the Maw of Hell
+ Boros Reckoner/stuffy dolls is available. Goblin Electromancer nearly guarantees victory by turn 4 so long as one win condition is in-hand. Burn at the Stake after two Krenko's Command is 12 damage; though it is possible to hit Burn at the Stake after one Krenko's Command and one
Goblin Rally
by turn 4 with a single Electromancer out, for a total of 21 damage. The win conditions are many, as all of these cards have excellent synergy with each other.
The downsides so far are the few games where Krenko's Command or Boros Reckoner are not available early enough to provide relief, or Massive Raid isn't available for cheaper creature removal.
For example, I had been beaten down by a
Wolfir Silverheart
bound to a Silverblade Paladin two turns after dealing 19 damage and being one mana short from another 4 damage with a second Massive Raid (Having used Blasphemous Act to wipe the board and simultaneously deal 13 damage to the opponent via Boros Reckoner). The opponent was left with 1 health and two turns to recover, enough to swing with a lethal double-strike bound Wolfir.
Other considerations include splashing W for Rootborn Defenses, possibly Lingering Souls and Boros Charm. Skullcrack would be the must-have sideboard against lifegain; and Aurelia's Fury to control board state.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated :3
