This is my first attempt at building an EDH deck purely from scratch.

This thread is a followup to questions asked here

So far, it's just a pile of cards, and it still needs to be trimmed down. Besides the goblin tribal theme, I don't know what else to do with it.

I've considered burn or land-destruction as something else to do along the way, but I mostly want to swarm with tokens and maybe win with Predator Dragon or something.

All the cards so far in the main- and maybe-boards are whatever I could pull from memory. I haven't even started digging in my boxes of cards. I have stuff from way back that I haven't seen in a while, so go ahead and suggest whatever - I might actually have it.

I posted some suggestions on the decklist, I hope it helps. Burn decks tend to be weak in EDH because of the higher life totals and the large number of targets (particularly in multiplayer). Goblins are a very effective tribe, though, with tons of support.

Little stuff like Mogg Fanatic is just too little to matter generally. He's not even a speedbump in EDH. Stuff like Goblin Sharpshooter though turn into monsters when combined with something like Wort, Boggart Auntie and a sac outlet, like Goblin Bombardment . Mogg War Marshal just makes the whole thing bonkers, letting you throw pings out and generate tokens.

Wort's ability is triggered by the way, you could run Strionic Resonator if you want to use it twice a turn.

I like the idea of being able to take advantage of sacking gobs. I thought I had a sharpshooter, but can't find it.

What non-goblin creatures would fit in well? I already have Clickslither , Hellrider , Purphoros, God of the Forge . What are some red or black EDH staples to keep recurring the damage?
