Thank you for the comment and suggestions.

- I guess it's Angelic Benediction you're suggesting as alternative to Sublime Archangel? Done.

- Good point on the land issue. I've added a swamp and a plain. Also: Godless Shrine and Isolated Chapel is out, way too expensive to buy. Instead I've added Orzhov Guildgate. Kept Cathedral of War as it's fairly cheap.

My mistake. This is not standard.
I'm new to MTG, and just looked up card legality in the mtgvault card database (which is not up to date).

Creating a solid Standard Format Goblin creature-based aggro deck seems pretty impossible?

Thx for the advice! Good points on how to strengthen card synergy.
I agree with Ember hauler and Goblin Wardriver for replacements.
Brimstone Volley certainly looks like a good replacement for burn spells and has better synergy with the creature aggro theme.

Thanks for the advice. Yours look interesting.

I'm new to MTG and ofc my current deck is work in progress. Just what I could sample in a couple of hours from the local store's single card stock.

I'm aiming for a pure goblin creature based aggro deck - a simple-minded 'one trick pony' - that revolves around creating waves of cannon fodder 1/1's (e.g. with 4 x Krenko's Command & 4x Krenko, Mob Boss) and where most burn and enchantment like effects are mainly 'side effects' of creature cards (e.g. Gempalm Incinerator, Goblin Chieftain, Goblin Warchief). Strength in numbers. Maximum horde.

I'm sure it has lots of drawbacks? But might be fun to play once in a while.
