Krenko is a really powerful commander and not really hard to built. What makes it a little harder is, that this particular built was done for a 25€ budget challenge within our playgroup. It was heavily inspired by the awesome "Commander Quarters" Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=276xcgs8Ov8&t=1s. The biggest take away for me was the idea to use cheap threaten effects on your own Krenkoto get additional untaps.

The strategy is simple:

1. Play Krenko as early as possible
2. Activate Krenko as often as possible
3. Overwhelm your opponents quickly with attacks and direct damage from spells or sac outlets

With this built you should have 100+ Goblins by turns 6-8, which should be enough to end the game quickly. Of course only if Krenko doesn't get removed. Unfortunately protection for Krenko is very limited, so if you get to tutor with Goblin Matron always go for the Goblin Chirurgeon. Generally don't be hesitant to sacrifice Goblins for extra value, especially if you have a damage trigger on the board.
