Changes #1 —Dec. 6, 2021

Switched out Sulfuric Vortex and Goblin Assault for Molten Echoes and Stensia Uprising.

Since my playgroup isn't playing much lifegain these days Sulfuric Vortex is less handy. Molten Echoes has a higher damage ceiling since it doubles most Norin triggers in this deck. Even losing the copy of Norin to the legend rule works out synergistically with Outpost Siege.

Goblin Assault has always been somewhat of a nonbo in this deck since it makes my utility goblins pretty vulnerable. Stensia Uprising may cost 1 more but is a lot better. Because its an end step trigger, it starts producing a turn eirlier and can even be an end game payoff, dealing 7 damage, or 21 damage with Fiery Emancipation. Because they aren't attacking each turn, the tokens can chump block, and are more likely to stick around for use with value pieces like Ashnod's Altar or Tooth and Claw.
