Decided to ditch the goblin goon.

Hmmm good idea I like that. Not sure whether I would prefer to drop razerunners or goon....
Yeah it definitely is but part of this deck was to get away from The Big Three Goblins: Lackey, Welder, and Piledriver, because each one is just very expensive and frankly not quite as fun. Thanks for the input!
A little bit of input. First, I think 22 mana is 2 too many. I have never felt the need to play a goblin-based deck with more than 20 mana, and about a quarter of my mana comes in tapped with a bonus effect. I think Chancellor of the Forge is a poor choice because it is simply too little too late. Even on a really good play where you actually get all 7 mana to cast it, you are at turn 7 and probably haven't done too much else. It simply isn't fast enough to earn a place in a goblin deck. And the Kuldotha Rebirth is simpy a waste of 4 slots here, as you have no artifacts to sacrifice for it. Hadn't really considered Chandra, but I guess that has more to do with my play style. Please take a look at my goblin deck for ideas: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=229571
Twin really seems like a problem for this deck. I think you need Spellskite to deal with that problem. You could also consider Flashfreeze or Celestial Purge, but those would be completely geared towards anti-Twin. Probably a better option than those is Spellskite, another Spell Pierce, and Surgical Extraction. 2 life to remove all the Twins/Exarchs in his deck is well worth it. If you could, I would love input for my goblin deck: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=229571
I much prefer Sharpshooter because it untaps every time I kill a creature, which is the only time I use it in the first place. As well, the basilisk collar makes a really good combo with it, because all damage is lethal so I can completely wipe the board of my opponent's creatures. I don't use Emberwilde because I can only sacrifice him during my upkeep, which I find very restricting. Yes this is an aggro deck, but I like being able to respond as well as press forward. As to the Goblin Grenade I have found Goblin War Strike to work better for me because both are sorcerys, but War Strike costs 1 less and doesn't force me to sacrifice a goblin. Warchief, Wardriver, and Chieftain are pumping up those cheap little goblins, and I would rather save them for up front attacking. There really aren't any goblins in this deck that I would like to sacrifice.
Melira makes for some pretty fun combos, if only she was easier to protect. Input in my goblin deck would be much appreciated: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=229571
I like this deck, first strike deathtouch is just such a natural combination of abilities that has amazing synergy. I actually incorporate deathtouch with goblin sharpshooter in my goblin deck http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=229571 to get a similar interaction.
Teysa is such a fun card to use, no wonder she is popular as an EDH commander. Black white compliment each other so well in terms of control but also powerful cards, and guildpact gave them so much strength. Looks like a good deck. Any comments on my goblin deck? :http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=229571
Slith are an interesting win-con, never thought of them that way. With such a disruptive focus in this deck, more strip mines seems like a good idea. Any input on my goblin deck? : http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=229571
Love this deck. Infiltration lens is just a huge advantage. Any input on my goblin deck would be much appreciated: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=229571
Pretty crazy deck, but with a $400 pricetag I guess that is to be expected. Would love input on my goblin deck: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=229571
This deck made me laugh, as I have many of old ape cards in this deck. How does it play for you? I agree with Daemius, Adaptive Automaton would be a worthwhile addition. If you could, please give me input on my goblin deck: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=229571
Surprised you aren't running any of the newer super-mill cards like Archive Trap. 13 card mill? Why not? If you could, please give me input on my goblin deck: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=229571
So many combos. Very impressive. I'd love some input on my new legacy goblin deck: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=229571
I strongly suggest you remove the Chancellor of the Forges for something else. They are 7 mana which is a large cost in a goblin deck, and by the time you have 7 mana you would probably prefer to play 2 or 3 smaller cards than him. Please take a look at my goblin deck as well: http://www.mtgvault.com/EditDeck.aspx?DeckID=204274&DeckCardID=5210655
Good looking deck. I'm not a fan of the green/red goblin myself but if you are going to include them you might as well throw in a few more to get the extra benefit from boartusk liege. How do you find the razerunners play? I'm curious. Please comment on my goblin deck as well: http://www.mtgvault.com/EditDeck.aspx?DeckID=204274&DeckCardID=5210655
Seems pretty good but I think it would benefit from 3-4 Warren Instigators. Do you have a way to deal with large threats or are you trying to do 20 damage before they get the chance to respond? Because if you simply want to go full aggro, I suggest you pick up 3-4 Goblin Guides as well. Please comment on my deck: http://www.mtgvault.com/EditDeck.aspx?DeckID=204274&DeckCardID=5210655
You could easily drop 5 lands, goblins really don't need more than 20. Please comment on my deck as well: http://www.mtgvault.com/EditDeck.aspx?DeckID=204274&DeckCardID=5210655
