I see that you have Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx in maybeboard. I recommend You to test Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx, it is very good ramp card for mono-color.

Love it, +1 from me! Check out Grinning Ignus and Aftershock btw. The latter is a great utility spell while Ignus combos with Purphoros and turns on Storm engines with Empty the Warrens and Volcanic Awakening.

Thx for all suggestions you done so far comrade!
Dualcaster Mage combo - as I say early - "I try to avoid using infinite combos building my decks." Especially when your deck is mono-color (Black is an exception imho) its quite hard to tutor combo pieces.
Mob Rule & Insurrection - dont quite fit the deck theme and too mana heavy.
Thx for upvote comrade!
Grinning Ignus - goes to maybeboard.
Aftershock & Volcanic Awakening - too much land destruction effects, for now I am happy with Shivan Harvest.
Thx for upvote comrade!
- Mana Echoes - great card, but not here. There is simply not enough goblins ;-)

This is absolutely glorious. Insurrection seems flavorful.

If you are looking into other/different haste enablers, I'd recommend Hall of the Bandit Lord and Fervor.
I'd recommend one replace Generator Servant since he has to be out a whole turn before you can use that ability (summoning sickness). Also, because he's a one time use.
Lastly, Mass Hysteria might be too much of a gamble. At least for me and my play group, I had to take it out because giving my opponents' creatures haste was too much of a disadvantage for me. Just wanted to stop by and throw that out there! Love the deck, friend!

Thx for comment & suggestions freakingShane
Hall of the Bandit Lord is already in maybeboard. So I think about adding it in and give it a try someday.
Generator Servant got your point, I think about replacement.
Mass Hysteria - in Russia we say "Who doesn't risk, doesn't drink champagne", so I dont wana throw it out cuz its make multiplayer games little more "spicy" especially with War's Toll ;-P

That's a fair point about the dash cards. I hadn't known you'd already tried a few.
As for infinite combos, the one I had been thinking of was with Dualcaster Mage and either Twinflame or Heat Shimmer. I can understand not using the sorceries, since you do say you're not attacking, but what would you think of using the wizard?
On a different note, have you tested out and creature stealing effects like Mob Rule or Insurrection in combination with Goblin Bombardment? I'm not sure where'd you cut for those, but I do feel like Goblinslide can replace one of your small time token generators like Dragon Fodder or Hordeling Outburst as another oddball suggestion.
