Besides the fact Krenko, in a goblin deck, is like putting gasoline on a fire, this deck allows you to win many different ways. There are ways to go infinite, one shot someone with a spell, do damage passively, or simply overwhelm them with creatures. It really is just a bag of tricks. Honestly, you don't even have to attack if you don't want. Goblins have crazy amounts of synergy already, add all these broken cards and you got one hell of mean red deck.

Here is some of my favorite combos:

  • Krenko + Thornbite Staff + Sack Outlet = Inf. Creatures or [+EETB Inf. Damage ]

  • Krenko + Sword of the Paruns + Mana Sack Outlet = Inf. Creatures or [+EETB Inf. Damage]

  • Krenko + Umbral Mantle + Mana Sack Outlet = Inf. Creatures or [+EETB Inf. Damage]

  • Kiki-Jiki + Spliter Twin = Inf. Creatures or [+EETB Inf. Damage]

  • Kiki-Jiki + Thornbite Staff + Any ETB Token Creation + Sack Outlet = Inf. Creatures or [+EETB Inf. Damage]

  • Kiki-Jiki + Thornbite Staff + Dockside Extortionist + Sack Outlet = Inf. Mana or [+EETB Inf. Damage]

  • Kiki-Jiki + Thornbite Staff + (Mudbutton or Goblin Sharpshooter) + Sack Outlet = Inf. Damage

  • Kiki-Jiki + Thornbite Staff + Stingscourger + Sack Outlet = Inf. Bounce or or [+EETB Inf. Damage]

  • Kiki-Jiki + Lightining Crafter + Sack Outlet + Inf. Damage

  • Splinter Twin + Goblin Sharpshooter + Sack Outlet = Inf. Damage

  • Lightning Crafter + Thornbite Staff + Splinter Twin + Sack Outlet = Inf. Damage

  • Any Creature + Thornbite Staff + Splinter Twin + Sack Outlet + EETB = Inf. Damage

  • Conspicuous Snoop + Goblin Recruiter + ETB Damage or Stack Damage or Pashalik Mons -(This is tricky you need both Conspicuous Snoop and Goblin Recruiter, when Conspicuous Snoop is off summoning sickness play Goblin Recruiter and put Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker on top of your deck. Use Snoops copy ability to copy Kiki's ability, Snoop then copies is self a bunch of times, once you have as many as you want. Once you have the last Snoop with Kiki's Ability copy Goblin Recruiter ability putting Pashalik on top, End turn all but First Snoop dies and WIN. Since Snoops die at the end of the turn so you need an ETB damage or Stack Damage or Pashalik Mons to finish it.)

Remember...

  • NEW ADD - Glacial Crevasses - see if I even use it.

  • Goblin Assassin and Skirk Fire Marshal are bootleg Board Wipes

  • Thornbite Staff, Magewright’s Stone, Thousand-Year Elixir, Sword of the Paruns, Umbral Mantle, and Rings of Brighthearth, even if they cant go infinite, still have crazy value.

  • Don't forget that Kiki Jiki, Lightning Crafter, and Heartless Hidetsugu are both shamen so Thornbite staff can connect directly to them without paying the equip cost

  • Impact Tremors, Pashalik Mons, Purphoros God of the Forge CAN and WILL win you games without even doing combat damage.

  • Use the Kyren Negotiations on their end-step before your turn, that way you can block if you need to. If you block assign blockers then tap for damage.

  • Eldrazi Monument and Goblin Chirurgeon can help through board wipes and if you do MAKE THEM PAY, throw every bit of damage at them before the board wipe goes though

  • If you find all your good artifacts in the graveyard use Buried Ruin to put it back in your deck.

  • All your lands add value. Path of Ancestry allows you to scry. Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx can add crazy value late game. Myriad Landscape can help the early game to get some quick Mana.

  • DON'T forget your triggers, use dice if you have to!
