Deck discussion for Goblin Deck

I like some of what you've done here, check out my most recent goblin deck.

Some of the goblins you have are just bad IMO. The Pikers I can definitely live without. Seriously consider Goblin Guides as a replacement, their ability has about a 1/3 chance of benefiting most decks you use it against each time they attack, but they are amazing first turn blockers as well. I'd also do away with the Raging Goblins, your Warren Instigator/Basilisk Collar combo aught to make sure you get plenty of goblins on the table cheap, try some Seige-Gang Commanders to work synergy with that.

I also think your dragons play a bit too slowly, I personally use Voracious Dragon.

I have to say Basilisk Collar is something I aught to think about sticking into my deck with Warren Instigator it makes him a REAL pain to block. If there were an easy red source for trample on him too it would be pure win. That being said Soul's Fire is another nice way to get expensive goblins into play cheaply, or finish someone off with a beefed up Voracious Dragon.

I've been hearing Unstable Footing is hard to make use of in Standard these days, consider swapping it for Lightning Bolt and sideboarding it or something that's what I did basically.

Don't underestimate Quest for Pure Flame either... double damage for an entire turn is sweet.

Giving you +1 for the collar idea.

Not exactly sure how you're gaining life besides the collar, but its a good deck. Good combo like Andarious said and he gave many good suggestions. I'm not sure how good it is, I don't play goblins personally, but what about quest for the goblin lord. Pure flame is a very good card.
