Added Massive Raid to Maybeboard. If I could get enough elementals on the play, it could deal good damage. Quicken is becoming more and more interesting, 1 island and I could draw a card, get the procs for my creatures and once cast a sorcery as instant.
Still wondering what should I then remove and are those cards on maybeboard really good/more useful than some other. I decided to keep Hidden Strings because I have Teleportal spells so its not hard to get Cipher to work out.
I ordered some of these cards and soon rest of them. So it won't be forever anymore when I get to test these on action, not just on paper/in my head!

I had an idea around a Massive Raid , Krenko, Mob Boss , Ral Zarek , Hidden Strings goblin deck where you just untao krenko as much as possible and use his ability a lot. Decided not to go with that because krenko is rotating but i think it would be really fun. Anyway i think that it is too unreliable with massive raid because i at most have gotten to 3 tokens with a total of around 5 creatures out. I mean sure it triggers the cyclops, guttersnipe, and pyromancer but so does Quicken , Unsummon and all other cheaper one mana spells. Cards like Shock , Pillar of Flame , and Searing Spear are just more reliable ways of dealing damage and hitting triggers.

Also i have gone to my lgs for two tourneys with my deck and was mana screwed a lot today running 22 lands so i would recommend adding more to your deck which is currently at only 20.

I ordered all the cards from mainboard, sibeboard and some from maybeboard now. I want to believe that I get the cards on this week and then I can test things out! Ofc I will update how things went overally.

Also Turn / Burn is much much better in mainboard, so I left Mizzium Skin to sideboard.

And I followed comments and added 2 extra lands, now I play with 22 lands. I was already playing with 22 lands in the FNM and it was perfect. Never really needed more and never had a feeling that I have too many lands in my hand.

I took 1 Divination , 1 Goblin Electromancer and 1 Turn / Burn away, now I got 4 Faithless Looting . Only two nights left before another Friday Night Magic to test my new maindeck out!

Take a look at the similar deck I am using, it uses flashback mechanism. My deck is extreme budget though, so you might have some better cards to use. Artful Dodge is incredible though.
