Lightning Berserker
- A simple one drop creature that can boost its attack if necessary. Works amazingly with Impact Tremors guaranteeing at least one point of damage every time she lands on the field, plus haste to throw down goblins with Mardu Ascendancy.
Butcher of the Horde - The big daddy of my deck, an almost unfairly efficient card. The most expensive cmc in the deck at , he's a 5/4 flier that can sac for a choice between haste, lifelink, and vigilance. Yes, you can sac three creatures for all three, and certainly there will be creatures to sac with all your one drops and goblins spawned with Dragon Fodder

Brutal Hordechief - The newest member to the gang, he can pack a punch. Partners in crime along with Zulaport Cutthroat, he can put you far enough ahead in an all out offensive when you swing with all your goblins in terms of life, if you don't outright kill your opponent. If you also have Zulaport Cutthroat out, that's even more lifesteal for every goblin that dies in the process. If you use his ability, you could even force your opponent to not block at all!
Zulaport Cutthroat - Entering the fray alongside Brutal Hordechief, his lifesteal can be triggered when you go all in with your goblins, inevitably losing a few in the process. My personal favorite is activating his ability as you sacrifice goblins to Butcher of the Horde, very satisfying. He also makes your opponent think twice about using board wipes on your goblins with cards like End Hostilities.
Bloodsoaked Champion - A fantastic one drop creature. If you have 2 mana, he's practically going to stay on your field indefinitely, and can be sac'd multiple times to Butcher of the Horde. Raiding him back in will also activate Impact Tremors of course.
Mardu Shadowspear
- Honestly here only because I like her as a 1 drop creature, which my deck needed more of, and just a better
Thornbow Archer
with dash. A more expensive dash than
Lightning Berserker
, but 2 damage on turn one would probably be considered rude. Can end a game even if she gets blocked. Also I got a full playset of the game day promos.
Scab-Clan Berserker - She's back! She is still especially handy if you can get her renowned. Look for an opening and put her haste to use, she deals 2 damage to your opponent for every noncreature spell they cast only after she's renowned!
