Deck Description

Basic idea:
I stumbled upon an article in which the vintage/ legacy Food Chain Deck, based on the card Food Chain, was described. I liked what I was reading but as I'm more into modern legality I wanted to try to convert it a "little" bit.

Building it:
4 Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker and 4 Lightning Crafter where set from the beginning to get the combo going. A quick search found me 3 Barrage of Expendables and 4 Blasting Station as replacement for Food Chain's sacrifice effect. 4 Goblin Chieftain would increase my goblins power, chances of survival and provide haste while 4 Warren Instigator should help to get things rolling a little bit faster. Last creature to add where 3 Mogg War Marshal, the perfect target for the first Lightning Crafters Champion ability. 4 Lightning Bolt where added to get some removal/ damage spell while 4 Tormenting Voice and 4 Wild Guess should be enough draw to get the needed components into my hand.
I'm not entirely sure if 8 (hard to remove) sacrifice sources won't be to much and 5-7 are a better choice but that will have to show in some testgames.

Tests:
At the moment this deck exists only on this site and has never been played against another deck. Regardless I'm open to all suggestions and ideas that may help to further improve this deck.

How to Play

This deck is designed as combo deck with a 3-part combo: Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker, Lightning Crafter and Blasting Station/ Barrage of Expendables.

Here is how it works:
Blasting Station or Barrage of Expendables, Kiki-Jiki and Lightning Crafter are on the field.
Tap Kiki to copy Crafter. The entering token exiles Kiki.
Tap the Crafter token to deal 3 damage to an opponent.
Use Blasting Station (preferred) or Barrage of Expendables to sacrifice the Crafter token dealing an additional damage.
Kiki returns to play from exile, Blasting Station untaps.
Repeat until your opponent is dead.

Deck discussion for monoR: Barrage Chain Goblins

Goblin Arsonist might be a good one drop for some early pinging.

Remove Lightning Bolt for Goblin Arsonist? That would be the only part that wouldn't really contribute to the combo. On the other side this would take the only removal the deck has.

I'd take out a couple wild guess actually.
