No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Deck discussion for Goblins/Artifact

So, going for a koldotha deck or is this more homebrew?

More of my own creation. It seems to work pretty well, but has hiccups. It runs no where near as smoothly as a more standard Goblin Grenade deck, but those decks won't seem possible after September.

I run a goblin artifact deck and I find Adaptive Automaton doesn't work too well. The +1/+1 is nice, but it costing 3 is too high a casting cost. I try keep mine 2 casting cost or less, with the only 3 cost being Goblin Chieftain because the haste is worth it.
Here's the current version of what I'm running:

I'm still working on what to change for post 30 Sep

I had thought he was a bit too slow for this deck, but couldn't find another substitute. I may rework it to take him out and add in Goblin Gaveleer with Silverskin Armor.

Gavaleers are an awesome addition, but your choice in equips bothers me. I run 4x Infiltration Lens and that works awesomely. I've often had this as my stating play:
Turn 1 - Land, Goblin Gavalier
Turn 2 - Land, Infiltration Lens, equip, attack for 3
With Infiltration Lens you can be reckless with your attacks because if you get blocked, you draw cards and you want that in a goblin deck :p

The Silverskin Armors are mostly for Kuldotha's Rebirth, but I've also found that they get me the Metalcraft on Galvanic Blast much more quickly. And the Darksteel Axes at +2/+0 are very efficient for the mana cost, they can also be equipped to Spikeshot Elder to boost his direct damage attack.

I really like the Infiltration Lens as well, but the current equipment I feel are goo choices, I may take out the Wellsprings for the Lens, in the long run the Lens would equal more cards and losing one equipment for 3 goblins seems like a good trade off to me.

I know you're trying to keep it able to stay past september but while Zendikar is still here why not try an explorer's scope. I've found that, like the infiltration lens it gives you what you want in a red deck. It'll give you mana ramp or just a sneak peak at your next turn. it filters out your deck as well.. nothing is less satisfying when playing this deck than drawing a land that you really don't need that much.

Really like your deck. Maybe Fling instead of Goblin Grenade. Might give you as much damage and its an instant so you Fling after you attacked.
