Icbrgr on First commander

8 months ago

as far as i can tell this deck is just not legal.

• needs to have a minimum of 100 cards (including commander)

• cards in the deck must be in your commanders color identity... in the case of Krenko, Mob Boss your deck can only have red cards.

So unless you change your commander start off by removing all the green/white/blue cards. and if you wanna keep Krenko, Mob Boss as the commander there are a ton of budget options to fill out the deck with Goblin synergies.

Dragon Fodder, Torch Courier, Rundvelt Hordemaster, Pashalik Mons, Goblin Warchief just to name a few.

jamiekingslayer,

Tempo is important with Kaalia since building an early game lead is her strength. So being able to swing hasty by turn 3-4 while interaction is down is fairly important.

I'd suggest 3-4 early game haste enablers with the best being:

1. Lightning Greaves reusable haste with protection. Auto-Include for me.
2. Generator Servant is an auto include for me since its both ramp and a haste enabling a turn 3 Kaalia with haste all on one card. Plus it can pay the commander tax later or for a hasty threat.
3. Bloodlust Inciter was just the cheapest reusable haste enabler I found, plus it can be used politically since you can make a deal to give an opponent's creature haste.
4. Torch Courier is a good one time use effect since it can be used the turn it comes into play. This also makes it a little better late if you have a threat in hand and an extra mana.

Greaves is good throughout early and late game. The rest fall off in the late game as you would rather draw into gas, but landing an early threat is important enough I wouldn't go below 3 total.

Also I don't like board wide haste effects like Fervor as it offers too much advantage to the opponent.

@ Max_Hammer thanks for checking out my deck and for the suggestion.

Unfortunately unlike the tutors I run that win me the game if they are conspired Signal the Clans really doesn't do much. Even if I conspired it and put Kiki in one pile and Zealous in the other the chances of getting both is 1 in 9. On top of that it puts the creatures in hand so I still need to pay {6}{R}{R}{R}{R} to win the game.

I have thought about adding Goblin Matron, Goblin Recruiter, Conspicuous Snoop, Torch Courier, and Mogg Fanatic to the deck to add in snoop lines. If I did Signal the Clans is good as the pile can be Goblin Matron, Goblin Recruiter, and Imperial Recruiter.

This would make the deck more competitive but this list already wins more then it's fair share of games. I also don't like the snoop lines as they don't have any synergy with Wort.

Gidgetimer on Timing question: Marton Stromgald and …

Untargeted effects like that of Marton Stromgald determine the set of objects they affect upon resolution. Additionally variables that are not set upon casting are determined upon resolution. So, in this scenario all three Torch Courier will get +3/+3. If you had ordered the triggers the other way only the non-token Torch Courier would be affected, and it would only get +1/+1.

CamraMaan on Timing question: Marton Stromgald and …

I have Marton Stromgald and Torch Courier (any nonlegendary creature) in play with Blade of Selves attached to the Courier. On attack, I order Marton's trigger first, then Blade of Selves, so that the Blade resolves first, making two creatures from my three opponents. How do these additional creatures impact Marton's attack trigger? He sees them and increases his +X/+X, correct? Are they going to be affected by his +X/+X trigger though...? They're in play once his trigger resolves, but they weren't when it went on the stack. Help...?

Thanks in advance! :)

Diamanacle - Sounds good! Looking forward to feedback. Cards that on the chopping block so far are Blood Pet, Greed, Demonic Vigor, Siege-Gang Commander and Torch Courier. Am probably gonna add Demonic Tutor, Vampiric Tutor, Diabolic Intent, Deadly Rollick and Shadowspear (which I forgot I had).

BPWyndon - Massacre Girl was in the deck while I was playtesting it before posting on here. She seems great, but whenever I add her to a deck I just end up flashing back using her on Arena with a board full of creatures and the resulting MASSIVE stack and it gives me a headache and I end up removing her. lol She definitely has potential though. I'll toss her on the maybeboard.

looks fun to play. I am also too poor for Wheel of Fortune lol. You might consider the Conspicuous Snoop line? Although it might not be very consistent without green's creature tutor. Red does have Imperial Recruiter and Goblin Matron to find Goblin Recruiter. The line works as follows:

1 Goblin Recruiter fetches the pile (top) Conspicuous Snoop Torch Courier Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker (bottom).

2 Draw a card.

3 Play Conspicuous Snoop.

4 use Conspicuous Snoop to cast Torch Courier and sac Torch Courier to give Conspicuous Snoop haste.

5 Create an arbitrary large number of Conspicuous Snoop using Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker activated ability.

6 Use the last untapped Conspicuous Snoop to copy Goblin Recruiter.

7 Goblin Recruiter's ETB puts Mogg Fanatic on top .

8 Sac Conspicuous Snoops for an arbitrary large amount of damage.
