40-50% deck now a 60-70% deck.

Nearly 25% of Stage 1 has been upgraded. I have skipped Stage 2, which would have essentially looked like this list except Wheel of Fortune, the below goblins, and probably every single added land sans maybe Nykthos. (Would sub in Slate of Ancestry/Magewright's Stone/Illuionist's Bracers, some random other goblins like Dark-Dweller Oracle, and for the lands just Mountains/cycle lands)

Having slight trouble figuring out whether some goblins need to be in the deck: Grenzo, Warren Instigator, Goblin Rabblemaster.

This deck is dedicated to Aggro and creature beat-down: spam Goblins, make tons more with Krenko, buff them, go face, win game. The presence of the 2 mana summon 2 goblins cards and the 1-time kill spells with huge creature counts are thematic of this and is in some way a measure to prevent the deck from slipping into truly competitive territory. So that is why there are no Kiki combos here. But they could come in to replace the above for a more truly well-rounded deck.

However, there are some (not all... in fact most of them are from Stage 1) of the usual Krenko combos. They require:

• Krenko (being able to tap)
• Sacrifice for Mana Outlet (Skirk Prospector / Ashnod's Altar)
• Untap enabler (Thornbite Staff / Sword of the Paruns)

Explanation: For Thornbite you could use any Sacrifice Outlet such as Goblin Bombardment to enable the combo, but the bottom line is that when you sacrifice your Goblins, you either trigger Thornbite or create enough mana to untap Krenko. Let's say you have Krenko, Skirk, and 1 other Goblin in play with Paruns equipped. Tapping Krenko, you obtain 3 Goblins, all of which you can sacrifice to Skirk for 3 red mana, and use that mana to pay for Parun's ability to untap Krenko. This alone creates infinite ETB triggers (killing with Purphoros etc) and infinite death triggers (killing with Pashalik Mons etc). Of course, with 2 other Goblins instead of just 1 you create infinite Goblins (and with Fervor etc you can swing for lethal yada yada).
