Changed sdeboard to be more burn centric. —May 12, 2012
I'm going to put Thunderous Wrath through it's paces and playtest it in sideboard.
Chandra, the Firebrand goes in for Hellrider.
Shrine of Burning Rage goes in for the Goblin Wardrivers.
Grafdigger's Cage goes in for any of the one drop goblins.
Reforge the Soul also goes in for any of the one drop goblins.
Thunderous Wrath gets sided in for what was left over from the other three siding in.
hmm lemme see...
Goblin Wardriver is a nice little speed card for gobbies but itsa 2 to cast 2/2 with battlecry who loves dying...so ide take it out for maybe for some evasive 1 drop Signal Pest which also help with the Kuldotha Rebirth sideboard..
but then again that lowers grenade ammo but ive never had a prob with that though..
for the rebirth sideboard maybe remove the cage for Panic Spellbomb its a good rebirth target coz you can still pay the red for draw..
if not on a budget Mox Opal is insane kuldotha power >:)
other than that sweet deck, seems pretty fast .

Maybe for the kidoltha-sideboard you could add in some equipments, like Inquisitor's Flail, Runechanter's Pike, Silver-Inlaid Dagger, Strata Scythe, Sylvok Lifestaff or one of the swords. (I'm specifically suggesting these for the backup plan of pumping Spikeshot Elder)

Hey, you make awesome decks and i always have loved goblins. This deck is very cool. Keep going ;) (i would swap 1 goblin grenade with 1 elder though)
April 22, 2012 4:04 p.m.
Ups i mean 1 elder out 1 grenade in. Not counterwisw ;)
April 22, 2012 4:06 p.m.
oh, and before i forget. You could sideboard Contested War Zone because it is awesome against control decks and heartless summoning (i hate it). if you need more artifacts for Kuldotha Rebirth like the guy Vman said you prolly use Signal Pest. however i wont side in artifacts with Kuldotha Rebirth because its kind of depending on better draws. i like it how it is right now. just focus your sideboard on something else:)

I usually don't like goblin decks... but this one is somehow special and I do like it. +1

Played a very close version of this deck last Friday night and got raped badly. (Of course, it should be noted that my second game I made a very poor choice ~turn 4 which was more offensive than health gain.)
I was running an Elf ramp deck with Predator Ooze.
Very good deck if you ask me. I really hope I don't see it next week because if I do, I might do worse than 3rd. lol

I joke at the shop when I run this that it's as easy as slamming my head on the table turning it sideways and winning. Sadly that description isn't too far off of the truth because I can EASILY top 8 with it.
That being said, in your deck you're not running as many Increasing Savagerys as I am currently in Little Shop of Horrors so this may never have come up but: Predator Ooze with Increasing Savagery spells DOOM for this deck. It forces me to start using burn and most of my burn spells require me to use my creatures (Goblin Grenade/Brimstone Volley what have you) so I cant use them to block your ooze. Once he has IV on him I'm on a 3 turn clock unless I save blockers.

by the way, can i ask you something. I playtested this deck and i like to play it, but koth is kind of pricey in my local store so i'd like to run 2 instead of 3. is 2 koth viable or does it ruin the deck? and if i take one out, what should i replace it with? (probaly a mountain or grenade) :)

2 is ok I suppose. There are two types of planeswalkers that are out there those that can kinda sit there Gideon Jura and then there's Koth of the Hammer, the type that if you don't kill him he WILL kill you.
I might fill that slot with an extra hellrider, but hes a bit up there mana wise. Goblin Grenade can be a dead card a lot that's why there are only 3. Personally, if I were you, I would put in one more Spikeshot Elder seeing as he has the potential to outright kill a titan on turn 4.

nice to know that this deck still works, and i have been thinki8ng about the side board... it works, and when it does it works GREAT but the thing is it dosn't work like the other guy said, so i've been thinking maybe time to swap the side board... maybe try a new route to mess with people on game two...
April 23, 2012 3:21 p.m.
thank you:) i appreciate your help, but can you explain how you use your sideboard? just game 2 swap some goblins and burns out and some artifacts and rebirht in? i dont know if thats viable thats why i ask :)
thanks in advance
April 23, 2012 3:28 p.m.
well, the game two is supposed to mess with your opponents side board in for spot removal, then a bunch of needed mass removal is then needed.
April 23, 2012 3:49 p.m.
So you say you trick them by changing the deck so their sideboard becomes useless.. Pretty crafty if you tell me.

People usually side in more spot removal so I side in thongs that pop out a ton of creatures lol.

by the way, isnt Chandra, the Firebrand a better choice than koth? because of the burn damage, its the wincon you know.
April 24, 2012 3:06 p.m.
well, she is a GOOD BUT (yes, like everything, but), She is only usefull for her minus 2, which mean's u need something to dual shot, BUT, she could make just as a nice fit as Koth, but if you can afford the Koth, he make red mana and if you EVER ulti him you WILL win, AND Koths final is one turn EALIER then Chandra, so it depends on who play at your shop and so forth, but yes, they are both very good planeswalkers.
