Optimator on Elves Drenched In Blood

Goblin Lackey and Warren Instigator are overrated in EDH, but Skirk Prospector is a true all-star.

Hello,

I would heavily suggest Skirk Prospector . Also you can plan Warren Instigator and Goblin Lackey and if you add Goblin Tunneler it can speed up your game. You might also want a few draw cards like Idol of Oblivion and Horn of the Mark

Here are a few cards I think you should consider:

Umbral Mantle, it's basically a cheaper Sword of the Paruns

Staff of Domination, it's also Sword of the Paruns but with a side of High Market and Skullclamp

Pashalik Mons, it plays like a Goblin Sharpshooter

Hordeling Outburst offers 3 goblins for 3 mana, better than Goblin Rally at 4 goblins for 5 mana, Goblin War Party even offers 3 goblins for 4 mana with a modular alternative.

Heraldic Banner and Patriar's Seal, colored mana ramp with a side of +1/+0 or untap respectively.

Quest for the Goblin Lord, a cheap and easy way to get +2/+0 on all your creatures. It helps the deck win even when you don't manage infinite.

Goblin Recruiter, tutor for goblins is terrific for the deck and stacks the top of your library letting you add Muxus, Goblin Grandee, you could play Goblin Recruiter and put 7 Goblins on top of your library, draw Muxus and either play him normally or cheat him with Warren Instigator or Goblin Lackey to cheat the top 6 Goblins on your library.

Mirage Mirror, it's more of what you want in the deck.

I would add 4 Legion Loyalist because Goblin Piledriver and Goblin Rabblemaster don't have trample. Also if you are going to add Warren Instigator I'd add Goblin Lackey as well and add Muxus, Goblin Grandee I'm also not understanding why Spikeshot Elder is in here. Seems like alot of Mana for not much of a payout. Hope this helps

Ammonzy I put Grand Warlord Radha in there. I think Aggravated Assault and Insurrection will both be good additions, I just need to find them. Goblin Lackey and Warren Instigator are both fun and could help, i'm just not sure what to switch out for them.

Ammonzy Goblin Lackey and Guardian Project both would be great. I was looking at Foundry Street Denizen, Goro-Goro, Disciple of Ryusei, and Sparksmith to help lower costs as well. I know I need better land, and I will be getting some soon. What about more/better sac outlets? Using persist could get me infinite mana.

Also, what about cards like Flameshadow Conjuring and Molten Echoes?

You should lower the amount of 3CMC cards you have and convert them into 1-drops like Goblin Lackey or even 2-drops to even out your curve better.

Dragonrage only gives you mana available during the combat phase then it will fade away on your 2nd main phase. I dont believe you have enough instant speed actions to make it worthwhile.

This deck would love Guardian Project and probably Toski, Bearer of Secrets

Rhystic Study is an expensive staple that you should never take out. the game is still about card advantage and that card creates some of the best. Idol of Oblivion is another good draw mechanic and token maker. I'm a little concerned about this build having 34 lands and no ramp really outside of dual creture/land cards. by the time you get your combos going most players will already have too great a board state or win conditions setup. i'd swap out Goblin Lackey as you only have 9 goblins in your deck so he won't give you the value you're looking for. good luck!
