I seem to remember the dredge math being ~ 13 cards to best optimize having one dredger / discard outlet. That's what I was aiming for with my list (14 0-1...

Listened this morning, and was surprised how high on sling-gang everyone is. I hadn't tried it yet, but I want to now. Are you playing it over Siege-Gang, or do you think one of each is better? My...
My only problem with relic is that it exiles itself, so you can't reuse it like crypt. That said, the cantrip is nice. I think I want to cut the moxen for a combination of mountain and darksteel...
4 Goblin Lackey
4 Goblin Matron
3 Goblin Warchief
3 Goblin Ringleader
3 Goblin Engineer
3 Munitions Expert
2 Goblin Cratermaker
1 Gempalm Incinerator
1 Stingscourger

Tried out a Goblin Engineer with mixed results.
made T8 at Gaming for Gains (7 rounds 5-1-1, loss to storm in T8) dropped 2-2 at another 7 round event more recently
My artifact package was 3...
I don't think that'ss good thinking though. Because Lackey doesn't do anything else, you have to count it as a mana source, because otherwise it's just a dead card.
This is a valid consideration, but think of Lackey as a mana source. A 23 land goblins deck is running 31 cards whose only real purpose is playing other cards (23 + 4 vial + 4 lackey)
Triple agree that Warren Instigator ( with chrome mox) is what makes settler strongest. Being able to tutor him directly into play turns 2-3 and often also find Kikijiki is the biggest appeal of...

I am trying out a very similar list to your Volrath’s article, and was surprised to like it. I have been struggling with my ultra-toolbox list and really enjoyed the low curve with...
You can play it for zero, which is fairly reliable for stopping very fast kills. I have been on winstigator, but I find that it's often "cabal therapy you, then decide whether to wait a turn or...
Thalia is too slow for dedicated combo hate. Our sideboard hate needs to come down turn 1, because we need to win a sideboard game on the draw. Discard is the most catch-all hate available, which is...
If you want to win matches vs combo, I recommend tipping the MD way in the anti-fair direction, and side boarding heavily, with Black sideboard. I find that a 12-13 cards of mismatched combo hate...
I think you're being a bit narrowminded here. No one is really saying driver sucks, what they're saying is we don't want to cast it on curve turn 2 . I have had great success, including high places...
There is a TON of 2 mana air in this list. A full set of piledrivers, plus 3 MWM seems very excessive, especially in a Rishadan Port deck. I would either swap some of these for some utility dudes...
If you're concerned about TNN/Goyf, try the black splash. Warren Weirding is great against both, and I keep an engineered plague hiding out too. Plague wrecks a surprising number of decks, not just...
Yes, I think this straight replaces Tuktuk, no question for me. It's arguably slightly worse with Kiki, but the oportunity to immediately kill multiple equipment, and the pump as a "worst case bad...
G2, It's hard to see but I cast a chrome mox into the Chancellor. My GY is right at the edge of the camera, so it's easy to miss.
The decks that I want to play sphere instead of thorn against are:...

After hearing the Chainwhirler love, I think I will swap him in for my MD sharpshooter, and move SS to the sideboard, replacing Engineered Plague. Or maybe put whirler in the SB slot, which do you...
Pyrokinesis, YES
Chrome Mox, yes, but once you cast Squee chrome mox will stop working, as it will have nothing imprinted anymore. Still could be good later in the game.
The crafter combo has not been useful, I've yet to actually use it. However, all of the cards have individually been useful. I will play kiki and skirk anyway, so the question really has been whether...
First "dominaria" event in :) Played in a semi-local 28 man event near boston.

I don’t recommend king. He’s slow/clunky and doesn’t really play to our strengths. I would much rather see a pile driver in your list than king, he adds tons of damage to a race, and can’t be blocked...
My List is not the bombers list. I don't like bombers... it's cool but seems mostly bad. As has been pointed out, most times you kill with bombers you would win anyways (many krenko tokens, SGC...
I don’t, but our store in Boston streams weekly events on Brainstorm mtg, and monthly large events. On the YouTube side he has the matches labeled by archetype at fast forward with commentary. Quite...
