I always wanted a goblin theme deck. Here is my take on goblin tokens!

What this deck is not, is giving bonuses to goblins. While Quest for the Goblin Lord, Goblin Warchief and Goblin Burrows make an appearance, they are hold-overs from how this deck started and I deemed "good enough" to keep for the time being. Relentless Assault is a great card for a goblin deck, but the (not so) secret goal of this deck is to never attack with the tokens. This is how I do it:

With Krenko, Mob Boss, the goal is to get him tapping early and often to get lots of goblin tokens on the board. Keeping Krenko, Mob Boss in play, protected, and tapping: Lightning Greaves, Whispersilk Cloak, Thousand-Year Elixir, Umbral Mantle, Battlemage's Bracers and Patriar's Seal

Cards like Dragon Fodder, Hordeling Outburst, Empty the Warrens, and Goblinslide create tokens. Creatures like Goblin Instigator, Siege-Gang Commander and Beetleback Chief bring tokens with them as well.

Creatures/Tokens entering and exiting: Impact Tremors, Witty Roastmaster, and Boggart Shenanigans

All the stuff tokens can do! Damage: Volley Veteran, Burn at the Stake, Kyren Negotiations, Gempalm Incinerator, Throne of the God-Pharaoh, Goblin Grenade to name a few... Mana: Battle Hymn or Brightstone Ritual

There are a few game ending combos with the edition of Skirk Prospector.

There are serval "finisher creatures" in the deck as well: Voracious Dragon, Horde of Boggarts, Reckless One, and Battle Squadron. Conspicuous Snoop, Guttersnipe, and Goblin Chirurgeon for some useful shenanigans. Goblin Matron, Goblin Recruiter, and Goblin Ringleader for some tutoring.

Mana in early game is a little challenging. Susceptible to wipes, so timing is vital. The deck seems like it will take a bit to get rolling; maybe 5-7 turns to rev up.
