Replacement for Guide in 8-whack

Modern Deck Help forum

Posted on Feb. 27, 2018, 8:43 a.m. by Snivy__

Hey, I don't like spending money on MTGO so I was wondering if there was a super budget option for Goblin Guide that's not Monastery Swiftspear or Fanatical Firebrand because I'm already running those

I would probably run Legion Loyalist

If it's supposed to play along with some more goblins, Foundry Street Denizen could be useful. Not so much in a burn deck, though.

Foundry street denizen is a 4-of in all 8-whack decks. Legion Loyalist is too much for me and I already have the 4 Foundry SDs

You could run Mogg Fanatic, it is strictly worse than Fanatical Firebrand without haste, but it works. If you want a non goblin I like Hellspark Elemental.

Does it have to be a creature?

You can run a random card that generates mana to trigger your Bushwhacker.

Like zoo, Manamorphose or

Burning-Tree Emissary

I did run Burning-Tree Emissary before and it worked well with Reckless Bushwhacker and Mogg War Marshal. I think I'll try it again. Right now I'm running playsets of both Mogg Fanatic and Fanatical Firebrand because they are cheap, fast and annoying. Thanks for the suggestions!
