Thank you, Kazzong.
I always have to ask.
Wish I were better with understanding the finer details. :)

Try out stuff like Innocent Blood.

Mind looking at my Mortal Combat deck with Goblin Recruiter?
Goblin Recruiter recruits 20 Goblins on top of my deck.
Grindstone mills them to my graveyard.
And then I cast Mortal Combat to win.

Fyi, I adore Culling the Weak and the Altar card for this deck. Great synergy!

Kazzong. Could you help me again with rules?

Two cards, new ones coming out:

Assault of the Dragons 4 plus 2 red
Sorcery
Target any amount of creatures. Destroy those creatures.
For each creatures destroyed, its controller puts one 4/4 red dragon token with flying into play

Dragon Tempest 1 plus 1 red
Enchantment
Whenever a with flying enters the battlefield under your control, it gains haste until end of turn.
Whenever a Dragon enters the battlefield under your control, it deals X damage to target player or creature, where X is the number of Dragons you control.

Here goes.

I have 5 1/1 Goblins in play and Dragon Tempest in Play.
I play Assault of the Dragons on the 5 1/1 Goblins.
What happens?
I end up with 5 4/4 flying haste dragons.
But how much damage (X damage) do I do to target player or creature?
Is it 25? 5 damage per each 5 dragons?

Trying to build a Modern version of Dragons of Tarkir when it comes out.

http://www.mtgvault.com/jessie/decks/dragons-of-tarkir/

Thinking
Turn 2. Dragon Tempest
Turn 3. Hordeling Outburst (3 1/1 Goblins)
Turn 4. Seething Song into Assault of the Dragons.
3 4/4 flying haste dragons and 9 damage done to opponent or opponent's creatures (if I am doing the math right) = 21 damage

Deck that needs help:

http://www.mtgvault.com/jessie/decks/dragons-of-tarkir/

Turn 1. Dragonmaster Outcast.
Turn 2. Dragon Fodder (2 Goblins)
Turn 3. Hordeling Outburst (3 Goblins)
Turn 4. Dragon Tempest and ???
Turn 5. ??? (Could use Seething Song to play Assault of the Dragons on the 5th turn)
Turn 6. Assault of the Dragons (and Dragonmaster Outcast produces 5/5 flying token).

Outcome:
5 Goblins sacked for 5 4/4 Flying Dragon Creatures (via Assault of the Dragons) with Haste (via Dragon Tempest) and 25 damage to target creatures/players (via Dragon Tempest).
1 5/5 token flying dragon token (via Dragonmaster Outcast)

Nice combo with Dragonmaster Outcast and Dragon Tempest. Every upkeep you are putting a 5/5 dragon token into play. It gets haste with Dragon Tempest. It does X damage to target creature or player for each Dragon in play.

***Question. Is the 25 damage correct? The second part of Dragon Tempest is confusing to me.

Early questions: Do I need fetches for the Dragon Tempest?
What mount of creature fodder do I need to feed into Assault of the Dragons?
What sort of (and amount of) disruption do I need to add into the deck...stuff like Smelt/Lighting Bolt?
Do I need to use mana ramp because of the Assault of the Dragons? Or do I actually need to wait until 6 turns for Dragonmaster Outcast to trigger and to have the time to cast a lot of 1/1 tokens into play?

New cards can be found here:
Assault of the Dragon
Dragon Tempest

Assault of the Dragons 4 plus 2 red
Sorcery
Target any amount of creatures. Destroy those creatures.
For each creatures destroyed, its controller puts one 4/4 red dragon token with flying into play

Dragon Tempest 1 plus 1 red
Enchantment
Whenever a with flying enters the battlefield under your control, it gains haste until end of turn.
Whenever a Dragon enters the battlefield under your control, it deals X damage to target player or creature, where X is the number of Dragons you control.

And I would love to see a deck with Reveillark and Shirei.
Blink cards and Etb effects would rock with them.

Mind returning the favor?

This deck is very combo heavy too...and I usually stay away from them.

It is so combo heavy that it will never work!
A Johnny deck for sure.
I wish it had search engines for the Grindstone and Mortal Combat.
I just can't find room!

It is a Frog.
Toads become Frogs in Magic the Gathering world in 2007.
Sorta weak of them since Toads and Frogs ARE NOT the same species.
Go figure.

Is Tolarian Academy banned in EDH?
If not...put it in the deck. Massive mana potential.

Okay. Fun combo time.
Heartless Summoning with your Workhorse and and Mikaeus.

Mikaeus + Tatterkite + something like Goblin Bombardment/Attrition/Contamination.
The neat idea is that Tatterkite, what a weird little bastard, can not get those +1/+1 counters...so he always keeps coming back. Infinite style.

Mikaeus + Cinderhaze Wretch + a sack outlet like Goblin Bombardment/Attrition.
Same idea as Tatterkite. The -1/1 and +1/+1 counters cancel and the Wretch keeps coming back.

Mikaeus + Murderous Redcap or Puppeteer Clique + another sack outlet.

Good luck.
Wish I could of been more helpful.

Oh, snap. Good job on that research Sohlon! +1 Reputation.
Interesting with no sideboard rule...especially for tourneys.
Do they state that Tribal decks must have Tribal Instant or Sorcery cards?
Looks like that should be one of the rules...if they are going to be so technical with the constitution of the deck. But then again, they phased on Tribal Spells and may not go back to them. There are only 50 or so of them.

Some people, believe it or not MidnightAngel, will not respond to any of your decks UNLESS you have such a detailed Deck Description and How to Play section. Puschkin is one of them. He will gladly rip you a new one when giving his great advice (if you ask) but he likes to see "what people have in mind for their decks" in order to give advice.

Maybe Crypt Incursion?
It stops reanimator decks.
Plus...the stronger creatures that are not affected by Caretaker will be removed.

Not really good with Edh advice.

And mind checking on my new combo deck? Haven't made a heavy combo deck in a long time.

http://www.mtgvault.com/jessie/decks/goblin-recruitermortal-combat/

IT is the reverse of this deck. It is self milling 20 Goblins into the graveyard (via Goblin Recruiter) and then play Mortal Combat for the win.
