Cabal Slaver

Creature — Human Cleric

Whenever a Goblin deals combat damage to a player, that player discards a card.

I appreciate all the feedback. I will definitely be looking more into Cabal Slaver and Purphoros, God of Forge, although the latter may be a little out of my budget at this point.

being in black gives you some older goblin synergies that would be very powerful.

Introducing Cabal Slaver and Earthblighter. There's a lord effect as well in Dralnu's Crusade

I like the fact that you are trying to keep you avg cmc low :)

If you'd like more help other than random suggestions, I would ask that you share your budget/card and a few insights on your meta; specifically how competitive it is, although I'm assuming it leans more to the casual side of things?

You may wish to consider Strionic Resonator as it combos with your commander well, allowing you to get back two goblins each turn. Also, you possess many other creatures like Cabal Slaver, Goblin Matron and Sensation Gorger to name a few who can make use of this and its mana cost is pretty low as a bonus. I see you have Slate of Ancestry in your maybe board, from my experiance in running aggressive goblin tribal its pretty good and with Wort, Boggart Auntie you lose very little from discarding. Possibility Storm may also be fun to add some fun chaos to the game and disrupt control players as well, if you want to be mean you could also try Painful Quandary.

You pretty much have all the good goblins! I would recommend Moggcatcher and Cabal Slaver greatly. Voracious Dragon is fun. Clickslither sucks and i dont think Chancellor of the Forge would be worth it. I like Battle Squadron for the flying. Boggart Harbinger is useful.

I personally feel that the token-generating sorceries aren't really worth it when you can recur siege gang and mogg marshal and tutor out Krenko and the like. In my opinion they, and cards like Ib Halfheart, fit better in a mono-red deck with Purphoros, God of the Forge and Reverberate and that kind of strategy. Things like that, along with the rabblemaster, have to be tailored around.

It does appear that you are somewhat doing that though. I just really don't like the thought of my Mad Auntie, Frogtosser Banneret, Goblin warchief, goblin king, and goblin chieftain being forced to attack.Krenko is still vital and an A #1 all-star.

Goblin Grenade is an all-star in regular formats but it's underwhelming in EDH.

A Whip of Erebos would be great. Diabolic Tutor is mandatory.

One thing that's great about this type of deck is that it functions without the commander. That said, you might want to swap out a few goblins for more utility. You can fill your hand slightly with Wort but something like Phyrexian Arena or Outpost Siege is great. You have decent removal but Chaos Warp is basically mandatory. No way to remove enchantments unless you go Unstable Obelisk, Spine of Ish Sah, Scour from Existence, or Lux Cannon. Not great options.

Eldrazi Monument is great with Krenko out.
