There's six copies of Fireblast and five Mine Collapses between main board and sideboard here. Maybe switch the extras out for more Goblins--something like Reckless Lackey or Fanatical Firebrand?

right, if you sacrifice Fanatical Firebrand or Reckless Lackey for their own effect, or for a Goblin Grenade/Reckless Abandon, you cannot also sacrifice them for another spell as well. Goblin Grenade and Reckless Abandon aren't triggered abilities.

Balaam__ I did decide to replace Goblin War Strike with Reckless Abandon, for two reasons. First, in the end really isn't enough goblins in the deck to warrant a big hit with War Strike, and it would be too inconsistent. With Reckless Abandon it's going to be a more consistent 4 damage, and in a perfect scenario I can trigger both, Fanatical Firebrand and or Reckless Lackey sacrifice to trigger both Reckless Abandon and Goblin Grenade at the same time. Up too 10 damage for two mountains? I'll take it lol, even if it's a slim chance.

@NeoLegacy I didn’t want to bombard your deck page any further but I wanted to share this build I threw together. It’s just one possible iteration, and it isn’t far from what you have now (just a bit more streamlined). It’s also all one-mana-cards as per your stipulation.
•18x Mountain
•4x Goblin Arsonist •4x Goblin Javelineer •4x Goblin Sledder •4x Reckless Lackey
•4x Barge In •4x Brute Force •3x Infuriate •3x Rush of Adrenaline •4x Crash Through
•4x Lightning Bolt •4x Lava Spike
Enough lands to get the job done.
Goblin Arsonist because things die, and it’s 1 point of bonus damage. Same goes for Goblin Javelineer. Goblin Sledder for the eventual death blow; when enough goblins have enough buffs but Trample isn’t quite enough to push through for lethal, just sacrifice the right things (after the opponent blocks) to further buff a specific creature for lethal. Reckless Lackey for the same reasons you had him.
The buffs are self explanatory and are the best the format currently offers. Barge In in particular is especially effective.
Lightning Bolt and Lava Spike for removal and extra direct damage.
I didn’t include one but sideboard for artifact hate, graveyard hate, and anything your playgroup constantly drops during games.
Again, this is just one path and I’m not trying to tell anyone how to build, I just thought maybe it might help you perfect yours as you see fit.

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!

Most recent update. I'm still going to mess around with distant melody in the list for a bit, but this is probably the direction the list will be headed.
Reckless Lackey, Lotus Petal and to a way lesser extent Impulsive Pilferer make me want to hang onto that blue splash for the explosiveness of Melody(yes I have a problem).
Also added in darksteel cit over silverbluff for an additional untapped artifact land in the mono red version, not sure if I need those red color pips though. The tinkering continues.

wallisface haha yeah the new list has almost been a lateral move overall. It does seem a bit more consistent in the gameplan though.
It's tough running a play test with no mulligans for a deck that would already mulligan suuuper aggressively. This current build needs to mulligan a bit less, so I'm taking your analysis seriously, but also with a grain of salt if that makes sense.
The deck isn't very good period, it never was and never will be, so that turn 4 mark isn't something I was super striving for. This is more a fun build that can occasionally ruin somebody's evening haha. Granted, I still want it to run in somewhat of respectable fashion.
But as stated the improvement so far has been marginal. The lack of one drops is glaring. Even in the lower tiers of pauper, it's still a fast format. I'm thinking of stealing a bit from Kuldotha Red lists and adding in Implement of Combustion and possibly maybe a few copies of Galvanic Blast.
The amount of time you've put in to help me is astounding, and I really really appreciate it.
Haha I'm not quite ready to give up on Distant Melody yet(you'll probably have to pry it from my cold dead hands) but I definitely see how it's a liability.I've been looking into pauper 1 and 2 drops that make treasure to work as more targets for rebirth and fix mana, but nothing is really out there that I can find other than Reckless Lackey which is ok but mehhh. I've also considered Lotus Petal
which is really enticing.
Again an earnest thank you for all the help. Cheers homie!
