Description

This is my favourite aggro having seen and played too much mono white. Using various goblin decks, I was able to climb to top 1500 after dropping a bit.

If you are playing vs treasure decks, consider sacrificing goblins with the trashmaster to slow the opponent down and prevent plainswalkers or board sweeps. The deck really needed another two drop creature and so I switched to the black goblin, which is a tricky card in itself for both players. The new rakdos land means the 2 cost black goblin is properly playable now. 

I tried running the moonveil dragon but it has no ETB effect and is too easy to handle by the opponent. 

Although aggro, you need to understand the opponent's strategy to make the right decisions, so be aware of the different sweepers and especially watch out fo the meathook massacre. Play with fire can be a crucial card for finding a better next draw. I prefer it to Frostbite which is fairly useless vs izzet. Against control, most of the time Play with fire can kill a post-effect plainswalker so I think its better than Frostbite generally.

The creature lands do play a critical role in how the deck performs, and are a great finisher.

Goblins are a weaker deck on rank but still fun when they work.
