sergiodelrio Yeah after testing a bit, your list seems way more solid haha. I was unsure about Epicure, but that blood token has been great.

I'm still unsure if Goblin Grenade wants to be in this list or not. Haha I'm still unsure if it's legal. I know it was banned for ages, so I'm having a hard time accepting it's legality.

I've been so flip floppy on blue, but with how your list is turning out(very good), I think I'm going to lean into trying blue and see what I come up with(probably very mediocre). I keep thinking that Reckless Lackey can do something in this list, so I want to mess around with that and see what that can do as far as helping the splash and the lack of early plays.

To be clear, I think the direction your brew is going will definitely be the way to go, I'm just stubborn and crave the big plays. I really hope you keep brewing and refining your version. I'd love to see the end result!

I'll keep this thread posted if I hit a version that I'm finally happy with. Many, many thanks to everyone again! Cheers!

For what it’s worth, if I were building this deck it’d look something very close to this:

Rite of Flame and Lotus Petalfoil both let you start your game a turn earlier, which is important when there’s otherwise soo few turn one plays.

Manamorphose, Gitaxian Probe and Street Wraith are all there to just cantrip easily, meaning you’re running effectively a 48 card deck which should make it a lot more consistent and find you the pieces you need.

Cathartic Reunion is a bit of a flex slot. I could easily see either Ichor Wellspring or maybe even Goblin Tomb Raider being a better fit here.

Personally, I think goblins come off as more fun because the names, art, and flavor text have historically been hilarious and goofy. Dwarves are generally come across as noble, but MTG makes goblins look like cartoonish idiots who don’t know their rear ends from their elbows. Also, because of this inherent stupidity and silliness, the game has been able to make cards like Goblin Grenade that have mechanics that play into those traits to make for a fun player experience.

You're not likely to cast Lava Axe or Assembled Alphas off 20 lands with no ramp, unless the game goes long (which is what a burn deck does not want). This is more Goblin tribal than burn; burn wants pretty much every card in the deck either be a land or say "(card name) deals (#) damage to (target)" like Shock or Lightning Strike (and if you can get ahold of some, Lightning Bolt). Every card that's not immediately dealing damage is slowing a burn deck down. Goblin tribal generally focuses on lots of creatures pumping each other up and attacking fast and hard, which is more of what you have here. Both strategies are viable, and there's a little bit of overlap, but they're not interchangeable. To give you an idea of the similarities and differences,

Also, look for Goblin Grenade.

I too have been trying to experiment with Blood Moon and a variety of Goblins in Mono R in Modern.

Goblin Grenade is too powerful and too flexible to not be a 4-of in any build IMO.

I really like Impact Tremors as well but if you're not just Moon, burn/grenades and goblins, now we're talking about an entire strategy shift to perhaps smaller creatures that hit the field more frequently such as Mogg War Marshal (gives you the trigger on a bonus creature or two) and other 1-drops.

We can figure it out together! LOL

I am listening to my husband (who loves to play red and Gruul) in the hallway and he is very partial to Goblin Scouts (he loves those old 90's cards). He loves your Goblin War Strike, btw. He adores tossing Goblins into Goblin Grenade to cause all sorts of mayhem and damage. Just some friendly thoughts and happy playing.

I would go down to a maximum of 21 mountains, and then replace Frenzied Goblin with either Foundry Street Denizen or Goblin Guide. I would also replace Goblin Instigator with Warren Instigator. It's good damage and better aggro. I would also replace Ib Halfheart with another Goblin Piledriver. Additionally, I would switch out two copies of Shared Animosity for Goblin Grenade, it's just too good to ignore in a goblin deck. From there, I would remove all four of either Dragon Fodder or Krenko's Command to put in two more Goblin Grenades and two Lightning Bolts. With the three slots that you freed up from cutting land, I would add in two more copies of Lightning Bolt and one more copy of whatever you chose to replace Frenzied Goblin.

Cool deck! +1 just for using Goblin Balloon Brigade - that card rules. Plus Goblin Grenade. I like your style.
