littlebarnowl, yeah I took out one Angelic Chorus and one Goldnight Redeemer and added 2 Windbrisk Raptors.

Purphoros, god of the forge is good in any token deck like this, with krenko that 2 damage per creature can add up quickly. Iroas would also make them harder to kill and also harder to block.

Thanks, for the suggestion, somebodyrandom. I'll definitely put Purphoros in this deck, I don't know why I didn't think of that in the first place. I will consider Iroas as something else to add as well. If you have any more suggestions on what to add in/take out it would be highly appreciated if you could leave that in the comments. Thanks again :)

Dragonrage is really fun. Get tons of mana, then pump the one that gets through by about 50... also, fortify can help against cards like drown on sorrow or pump them all to 3/1s for a turn.

Dragonrage could work, but with the Archangel of Thunes I'm already gaining a large amount of counters (Equal to the number of Goblins I'm gaining) and they're permanent. Also I don't really need that mana, it's not that necessary, that also goes for Fortify. Archangel of Thune just builds up those counters so much quicker and there's a lot more of them. If Krenko, Mob Boss gets 200 goblins out one turn. I probably gain around 1000ish life and get 200 +1/+1 counters on all my creatures, and if I have Purphoros, God of the Forge out, I've already won.

how bout a Abzan Battle Priest? that way your creatures have lifelink weather they attack OR block.

Thanks for that, ticked-off-squirrel! I never really liked the Khans of Tarkir set so I didn't pay that much attention to the cards. But that's definitely the better card to give all my creatures lifelink. If you have anymore suggestions it would be highly appreciated if you left them in the comments. So far, you've been a massive help :)

There should never be a life gain deck without Sunbond

March 25, 2015 7:16 p.m.

You should definitely try Cathars' Crusade

Psychin144p says... #11

TheTeller, honestly I don't think I'd need Sunbound with my Archangel of Thunes giving all my Goblins +1/+1 counters. If I gain 100 life, 100 +1/+1 counters on every single one of my goblins, and gaining that much life isn't difficult. With Sunbound it's only on one of my creatures and I don't think there's much of a need adding them to buff one goblin more than the others, it will still have the same effect if it's lethal. But thanks for the suggestion anyway! If you have anymore it would be highly appreciated if you could leave them in the comment section here. Ta :)

Somebodyrandom, Cathars' Crusade is definitely a card that has a possibility to go in this deck, the only problem is knowing what cards to remove so I can put this in. I would like to have my draw rate fairly high so I can guarantee having my Krenko, Mob Bosss show up sometime in the game. So I'm not just going to add those cards and some land. If you could suggest some that I could be better off without it would be much appreciated! Thanks man :)

I'm not really sure if you need the Arms Dealers because Siege-Gang Commander has a similar ability, but that is just my opinion.

March 26, 2015 4:56 p.m.

littlebarnowl says... #14

@somebodyrandom The Siege-Gang Commander doesn't deal as much damage and costs more, I don't think he's going to need more goblins as well.

Ib Halfheart, Goblin Tactician? If they try to kill your goblins with blocking they lose their creature too (most of the time).

March 28, 2015 8:37 a.m.

Psychin144p says... #16

Monsmtg,they're going to lose their creatures anyway, or lose. Attacking with 50/50s+ is generally gonna kill the defending creature.

Psychin144p says... #17

I think this deck will work well, but the only main problem is the heavy reliance on Krenko, Mob Boss. If you guys have any suggestions on any cards that could make it much more likely to get Krenko, Mob Boss No colour changes (e.g. Adding black.)

I cant wait to play Stigma Lasher, Erebos, God of the Dead, and Leyline of Punishment against this deck -

I'd say Congregate to gain life and Eidolon of Countless Battles as a win con would be interesting in this deck.

April 11, 2015 7:28 p.m.

Psychin144p says... #20

Congregate I'll definitely add, I don't know how it slipped pass me. Eidolon of Countless Battles seems like a good win condition for this deck though what to remove??? Thanks for the suggestions by the way, they're highly appreciated!

Ruglefrugal says... #21

I don't know if you want 4 Purphoros, God of the Forge and Krenko, Mob Boss they're both legendary and having multiples in your hand will be very upsetting. I know they are key to the deck's function but two or three of each would be fine. Same with Archangel of Thune.

April 20, 2015 5:10 a.m.

Psychin144p says... #22

@Ruglefrugal, I could decrease the amount of Purphoros, God of the Forges, I don't see the reason to decrease the amount of Archangel of Thunes, though I'm definitely not getting rid of any Krenko, Mob Bosses. Krenko, Mob Boss is completely essential to winning at all, without Krenko, Mob Boss none of this will function.

Psychin144p says... #24

@Running_With_Spoons, I definitely think that's a possibility. should I remove the Congregates to add 2 Suture Priests???

Thanks for the suggestion man! Really appreciate it! If you have any more just leave it in the comments here, thanks again!!

One thing I believe you are mistaken on is your explanation of Archangel of Thune. You do not get counters = to the life you gain. So whether you gain 1 life for each Soul Warden, or 2 life because Rhox Faithmender is on the board, you still only get 1 counter from Archangel of Thune.

Other than that this deck is amazing!! I have now combined my goblin deck and my life gain deck to mimic this. Soooooo much fun

+1 for sure. Please check out my decks.

I have added Elspeth, Sun's Champion to throw out tokens and some removal.
