So I made the jump and invested 200€ to get the missing modern foil cards.
Dont think Ill ever come back to Legacy, because the format is pretty dead in my region.
Im happy I can play my deck from 2010 again :D
Got tired of Legacy and you like drafts? Try my Paupercube What?
I'll repost here for discussion.
Snoop + Boggart Harbinger -> Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker
Snoop gets Kiki's ability but is nonlegendary, letting you tap to make infinite tapped Snoops.
Then you copy Harbinger to get Mogg Fanatic or Sling-Gang Lieutenant on top and sac them all to win.
That's a turn 3 win curving out T2 Snoop into T3 Harbinger.
Matron and Ringleader should improve the consistency of assembling that later in the game.
Kiki and the extra tutors seem to fit better in WInstigator builds. WInstigator means Chrome Mox, which also theoretically enables a turn 2 win:
T1 Mox, Snoop
T2 Harbinger -> win
You can even make both uncounterable with Cavern!
Something like this to start:
//Lands: 20
4 Cavern of Souls
4 Wasteland
4 Bloodstained Mire
2 Badlands
1 Snow-Covered Swamp
5 Snow-Covered Mountain
//Artifacts: 7
3 Chrome Mox
4 Aether Vial
//Goblins: 33
1 Mogg Fanatic
4 Goblin Lackey
4 Warren Instigator
4 Conspicuous Snoop
3 Goblin Cratermaker
1 Munitions Expert
4 Boggart Harbinger
4 Goblin Matron
1 Goblin Chieftain
4 Goblin Ringleader
1 Goblin Trashmaster
1 Sling-Gang Lieutenant
1 Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker
//Sideboard: 15
3 Chalice of the Void
1 Thorn of Amethyst
2 Pyrokinesis
2 Faerie Macabre
1 Tormod's Crypt
1 Relic of Progenitus
1 Pyroblast
1 Earwig Squad
1 Goblin Chainwhirler
1 Boartusk Liege
1 Stingscourger
Sideboard is rough, but toolbox seems good with that many tutors main.
Goblin Wizard? Also, isn't Skirk Prospector broken with Snoop?
Prospector is very strong with Snoop, but Kiki is even more broken (infinite Snoops).
Without the Kiki combo, abusing Prospector would mean chaining Mogg Rituals (MWM) and other cards, which requires a very different build and is harder to set up without Goblin Recruiter legal. I have an example of how you can break Prospector-Snoop with Recruiter in EDH in the spoiler thread, but it seems too durdly for Legacy.
Prospector could work as a tutorable 1-of with the Kiki combo, but it's a bit win-more. You already have infinite bodies and infinite pings, and now you can get infinite red mana too.
goddamn that snoop card is good.

"Snoop gets Kiki's ability but is nonlegendary, letting you tap to make infinite tapped Snoops"
You can't do that, read the card
Which card? It seems to me that it works.
Snoop says "As long as the top card of your library is a Goblin card, Conspicuous Snoop has all activated abilities of that card."
Kiki, a goblin, has "{T}: Create a token that’s a copy of target nonlegendary creature you control, except it has haste. Sacrifice it at the beginning of the next end step."
So if Kiki is the top card, Snoop gains it's activated ability. This allows it to tap to create a token that's a copy of target non-legendary creature you control. Snoop then taps targeting itself (Snoop is not legendary). Once the ability resolves, there is 1 tapped Snoop and 1 untapped Token Copy of Snoop with haste. This token copy also has "As long as the top card of your library is a Goblin card, Conspicuous Snoop has all activated abilities of that card.", and therefore also gains Kiki's ability to create a copy of itself (or the original Snoop if you so please). This is repeated until you have as many Snoops as you want. Thus infinite tapped Snoops.
It's a 2-card combo. A+B = win.
Sorry, I thought the combo rules interaction was obvious from reading the cards. I'll explain it in more detail.
A = Conspicuous Snoop
B = Boggart Harbinger
With these 2 cards resolved, you can go infinite and win the game.
Here's how it works.
Step 1: Cast Snoop. It has summoning sickness. Pass the turn.
Step 2: Cast Boggart Harbinger. For its trigger, put Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker on top of your library.
Step 3: Snoop gains all activated abilities from Kiki. However Snoop does not copy other things, like the legendary type.
Step 4: Tap Snoop: Use Kiki's ability. Target Snoop (itself), which is a legal target because its a nonlegendary creature.
Step 5: The Snoop/Kiki ability resolves. Create an untapped 2/2 Snoop token copy with haste. It gains Kiki's ability as well.
Step 6: Repeat Steps 4 & 5. The result is infinite tapped 2/2 Snoop tokens and 1 untapped Snoop token.
Step 7: Tap the last Snoop token: Use Kiki's ability targetting Boggart Harbinger.
Step 8: The Snoop/Kiki ability resolves. Create an untapped Harbinger token copy with haste. For its trigger, put Sling-Gang Lieutenant on top of your library. Kiki gets shuffled away.
Step 9: All the tapped Snoop tokens now gain the Sling-Gang activated ability and lose Kiki's ability.
Step 10: Sacrifice all the Snoop tokens to Sling-Gang the opponent and drain 9999999 life
You could replace Sling-Gang Lieutenant with Mogg Fanatic and also ping the opponent to death. Fanatic lets you ping creatures too, if there are hatebears to remove like True Believer or Platinum Emperion before you can kill the opponent.
To pull that off, all you need is a Snoop without summoning sickness and a Boggart Harbinger to manipulate your top card.
That can win the game as early as turn 3 with Cavern of Souls protection on both pieces.
Tempo tricks:
-With Chrome Mox you can curve out T1 Snoop, T2 Harbinger and win on turn 2.
-Aether Vial lets you play Snoop EOT to avoid passing the turn
-hastelords give Snoop haste, letting you play both pieces in one turn (Vial or Lackey helps)
Why play combo in Goblins?
Because you can. Combo is Goblins' worst matchup, and this A+B tribal combo lets you actually race.
It's also a more compact win condition than the usual Piledriver + hastelord + bodies, which should be easier to assemble vs control after Matrons and Ringleaders.
Also Snoop is good on its own.

Lackey has ended friendship with Siege-gang commander.
is now new best friend.

i think muxus is a legit 1of, maybe even 2of in the sb against control
Got tired of Legacy and you like drafts? Try my Paupercube What?
You need 2 cards to win on the spot: Conspicuous Snoop + Boggart Harbinger
(Harbinger finds both Kiki and Fanatic/Sling-Gang)
I guess no one read my wall of text above.
Muxus takes the spot of best Lackey drop though.
How about a turbo list that seeks to get out a Muxus or a Snoop combo as soon as possible?
4 Goblin Lackey
4 Warren Instigator
4 Muxus, Goblin Grandee
4 Conspicuous Snoop
4 Chrome Mox
2 Sling-Gang Lieutenant
2 Kiki-Jiki, Mirror-Breaker
1 Boggart Harbinger
2 Goblin Warchief
4 Rakdos Charm (for that sweet Goblin Lackey interaction)
4 Munitions Expert
4 Goblin Matron
4 Cavern of Souls
2 Badlands
4 Bloodstained Mire
1 Swamp
8 Mountain
2 Wasteland
This list is dumb but it can power out uncounterable t2 wins. Worst case you just cast a bunch of dudes for value and turn them sideways.
