@ magnetcrocodile : Thanks for your input. I slightly changed the setup based on your input. The reason I still have Temur Battle Rage present is for a boosted Goblin Rabblemaster. I updated the spoiler text. What do you think now, based upon this updated part? I love a rabblemaster trampling my opponent...

Yeah, Temur Battle Rage is good for those finishing touch and punishing those 1/1 chump block. But it will do better if your deck has big creatures, like Thunderbreak Regent or Stormbreath Dragon which doesn't really need any help in getting the Ferocious effect

Also maybe another suggestion for creatures:
Try mainboarding or sideboarding some Seeker of the Way. Prowess is easy to trigger and the life gain never hurt.
Another alternative maybe add more burn paired with Soulfire Grand Master. A 5-point life swing when you cast Roast(another sideboard material) to destroy their creature is satisfying in its own way

@ magnetcrocodile : Thanks for the suggestions. In the first version I did play with Soulfire Grand Master, but it felt not fast enough and the lifegain never made a decisive difference. His ability was too expensive to even give it a try. Therefor I had the idea to go full frontal with Aggro... Thats why there are no larger mana spells in the deck. Seeker of the Way Is indeed nice, but I don;t know what to replace it for in the current balance... Im doubting what to do....

Don't care about the deck! I hope its good (i believe it is)! Literally haven't checked it yet. +1 for the reference kind sir! Keep it up!

Hi Flyers167,
I prefer on the 1 mana spot the Lightning Berserker which haves dash. I also have Goblin Heelcutter which does the same trick and dashes as well. Which combos nice with Impact Tremors.
The reason for the fetches is simple; the presence of fetchlands thins out the deck of lands, which makes it less likely to keep drawing land. The amount of lands is being playtested for optimal results.

Decks like this I usually see Purphoros, God of the Forge. Have you thought about him?

I would also encourage running Purphoros, God of the Forge, but besides him, Hammer of Purphoros would also be interesting.
:)

Hi Brutus1 and NoviceMagician ,
thanks for the comments! I feel that Purphoros, God of the Forge deserves a spot in the deck. I think it could do better than Outpost Siege. Do you think that I should swap these?
Perhaps for like 3 copies of Purphoros, God of the Forge and add one other card?
Thanks for these thoughts... appreciated!

NoviceMagician says... #12
Yeah, that sounds good, I think it would work either way, only real way to find out would be to playtest with Purphoros.
Let me know if you'd like me to run any playtest said, I'm glad to help!
;)

Burst of Speed might come in handy. Especially on turns where a bunch of your creatures hit the field, like when Dragon Fodder or Hordeling Outburst is cast.
May 25, 2015 4:33 p.m.
I would recommend playing more off of Warbringer, in the late game it makes it so that you can dash basically your entire hand and win the game with impact tremors and outpost siege.

Love the concept, goblins always have the potential to be devastating, definetly agree with adding a couple Purphoros, God of the Forge, the damage would add up QUICKLY.
Funny I found this, I posted below you on Advertise your deck! and built a Land Hate deck with goblin tokens fueling Earthblighter

For a goblin deck, you play a disturbingly small number of the little buggers. Might want to change that, or drop the theme all together :)

Obelisk of Urd might be good. At least in the sideboard as a suprise

JANKYARD_DOG says... #18
Not sure the Siege fits here. I agree with above that Purphoros, God of the Forge should make an appearance here. Possibly even Hammer of Purphoros so all the tokens have haste. Also I am aware red doesn't have alot of draw power but you could still use Tormenting Voice once you start getting down in cards and pitch an unneeded land or something more pricey.
May 28, 2015 3:29 p.m.
Hi NoviceMagician, thanks for the suggestions! The playtest will be carried out soon. But I will give them a spot untill they prove less worthy.
-4 Outpost Siege +3 Purphoros, God of the Forge
Last spot to be determined...
Burst of Speed isn't standard legal as far as im aware.
Rexxe28, thanks for your imput. I wish I had one more Warbringer here, as it would fit in perfectly.
May 28, 2015 5:36 p.m.
Thank you zaktheripper94 for your comment. Appreciated!
Daedalus19876 thanks for your imput. I feel playing 16 goblin minded cards suits my goblin 'needs'. Perhaps 'dash' is the mainstream theme, but goblins rule and fit my game. If only more dash minded goblins would appear :-)
Undead_Assassin as a sideboard card I might give it a try. But I think it's too slow, even when I can convoke it.
Mj3913: cheers for your comment! I like the idea of testing Tormenting Voice. Because of the returning dash cards I can find em quicker and drop the unwanted ballast :-) Good point!

Check this build:
http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/uas-red-deck-wins/
one of the judges at my LGS pilots this build, he's been extremely successful with it. He runs 4 obelisk in the main board. It allows him to overwhelm most people on turn 4. Urd can come out as early as turn 3 with Hordeling Outburst in play. (Remember you can convoke creatures even when they have summoning sickness)
May 28, 2015 5:50 p.m.
I feel like you always want a purphorous so I would suggest making him a 3 of

Daedalus19876 says... #24
Ack my bad, I missed the two sorceries (b/c I had just searched for goblins in the creatures category). It does mean, though, that Obelisk of Urd is a bit situational shrug
Still looks like a good deck! And yeah, Purphoros is nuts.

I'd like to see a third copy of Zurgo in here, turn 1 2/2s are amazing, and he's either going to die quickly or win you the game, so having extra copies of a legend isn't going to be a bad thing.
Also, regardless of what you might have been told, deck thinning is a waste of time. Just play mountains.

Love the reference
I think Temur Battle Rage is kinda hit-and-miss since all your creatures need some sorts of condition to hit that 4 power
And I think 4 Monastery Swiftspear is a must, since it synergizes with your cheap burn spell
Either way, it's a solid aggro deck. +1 from me
