The planeswalkers gathered together using all their energy to transport themselves through the aether to the mountains, where it was rumored a vast treasure of aether manipulating hedrons laid buried. They appeared in the bottom of a valley as the remains of the portal they created faded around them. They looked around seeing nothing but earth and rock before them. As they walked on down the natural path of the valley a shimmering stone stuck out of the dirt ahead of them. Excited by the idea of possible treaure they raced towards it. Trumpets echoed through the valley. The mountains turned dark as goblins poured from their caves down the hillside towards the young planeswalkers below. Stunned by the hasted speed of the horde before them, the skilled warriors had little time to ready for a fight. Each strike grew in power as their numbers doubled like a hydras head, when one goblin fell two others took it's place. Their rocks, spears, and the goblins themselves soared through the air damaging the walkers even after they met their death blow.They knew they were no match for the infestation the warrens released. They finally cleared a path through the valley with Tuks, Skirks and Moggs rallying close behind driven to work together only for the reward of fresh flesh. The walkers began to outpace the goblins, but stumbled as a shrine appeared before them surrounded by thrones perched with kings, chiefs, and generals. They realized the rumored treasure they sought was only a ploy set up by the Goblin Council. Fire blazed into the sky as a mighty goblin appeared a top the shrine with a hedron raised above in hand. She cried out, "time to feast my brothers," as she threw the magical relic into the machine on her back. All of the goblins eye began to shine red like flames surrounding them. Before they could react they were engulfed by rage and fury.
This is my Goblin Commander deck. It was the hardest deck I have ever had to make, since there were so many cards I could have used. Before I new it I had over 100 cards with no land in the deck. Eventually, I painstakingly narrowed it down to this masterpiece. The peak of mono-red baddy perfection. There is not one Goblin without a utility advantage. (Some ability that helps power-up, search, make tokens, damage or remove creatures/artifacts) The base of the deck resides on quick aggro play, with card draw to prevent top decking. You do not have to fear attacking or blocking, because no matter what happens to your creatures your opponents will suffer for it due to enchantments. Fields wipes do little to stop the onslaught from this deck as well, since you can pull off many effective abilities in response making players waste spells and mana.
