Icbrgr on Arena: The One-Shot Achievement

4 days ago

"The One-Shot: In a matchmade game, deal 20 or more noncombat damage to a player in a single turn."

This achievement has been plaguing me for awhile now because I want to unlock the Chandra Avatar but I finally got it done!

I don't have the best card pool on arena because I don't play very consistently (so wildcards a very precious!!!) But I figured I would share my budget idea for those who may be interested!

I was running a Goblin deck in the Pioneer format with Skirk Prospector for ramp and Thrill of Possibility for consistency to put together Fling + Colossification... I only had 1 Rare wildcard to spare and that was my method... curious to know how y'all are going about this achievement!

Skirk Prospector is the best goblin at any price. This looks great. Too bad Krenko, Tin Street Kingpin is too expensive, eh?

Thanks dmykle!

I originally had Skirk Prospector in the main board, but I did not get that far until you suggested.

Awesome stuff!

I apologize I sat down and looked at the nutz hand again. All you would have to do is replace Signal Pest with Skirk Prospector. Then not only would you have a non-token red creature, you would also have double your mana. You tap the goblin tokens to pay the cost reduction, then you can sacrifice those tokens for red mana.

PauperPower on Pauper Storm Update Help

9 months ago

So I've been running a Goblin Storm list in Pauper for ages. The only update I've made in years has been Silverbluff Bridge. I feel like there has to be something I'm missing improvement wise, but I'm struggling.

I've tried Skirk Prospector a few times, but he definitely doesn't fit the strategy. I need some help here if anybody is willing to take a look.

Goblin Storm

Thanks in advance.

Question addendum: this is assuming I have no other face-down-cast cards; I'm only casting either Skirk Prospector or Pyrotechnic Performer face down.

I like the decklist, I recommend Staff of Domination and Umbral Mantle. These two cards and a couple other cards with similar effects allow Krenko, Mob Boss to go infinite with Skirk Prospector on the field, making infinite goblins, mana, etbs, and sacrifice triggers.
