Heh, Matt... it's EXTREMELY funny that you made those changes because so did I...

I made those changes about a week ago, so it's rather funny that we are both on the same page. The only difference between my tweaks is that I'm still running 2 Island 1 Mountain as opposed to 1/1/1 w/ Forest, but I may make that change after more testing.

Some things though. I find Dragonauts to be the tits vs Goblins. If they don't answer it with Incinerator, they usually lose. Maybe you've had problems with the manabase, thusly making Dragonauts harder to cast. I usually don't have too many issues with my manabase due to the sheer number of cantrips (and fetching basics), but I can see why this might occur from time to time. The main reason why Dragonauts is a monster here is because it has flying and they simply can't chump block it. With the amount of burn the deck packs to remove problem guys like Piledriver, the Dragonauts combo-off on Goblins before they can combo-off on you... the combo phase is 1337.

I also find Lava Darts great against Goblins. It answers a first turn Lackey and sits in your graveyard as additional fodder later on if necessary. I find the curve in this deck to be extremely low, yet I find myself constantly seeing lots of lands. Unless they tag me with multiple Wastelands, sac'ing a land or two to Lava Dart has yet to be an issue. Not only that but the 1/1 Fire//Ice-like damage split is pretty handy vs Goblins.

I only have about 15 games vs Goblins under my belt with the deck though.

I like the maindeck configuration as it stands vs Goblins right now. So far the game 1 matchup has been roughly 60/40 in my favor. Post board, the 3 Pyroclasm (or Rough/Tumble or Rolling Earthquake) and 3 Stifle make the matchup even stronger. The great Goblins matchup is a huge reason why I think this deck is a strong contender in the format.

Isochron Scepter actually sounds like a really strong sideboard option vs Board Control (aside from the nasty Pernicious Deeds, which I'd bring in Needle/Krosan Grip/Stifle/etc for) and B/x Sui variants.

My current maindeck list:

Lands (17)
4 Flooded Strand
4 Wooded Foothills
3 Volcanic Island
3 Tropical Island
2 Island
1 Mountain

Creatures (11)
4 Nimble Mongoose
4 Quirion Dryad
3 Wee Dragonauts

Spells (32)
4 Brainstorm
4 Serum Visions
4 Sleight of Hand
4 Magma Jet
4 Lightning Bolt
3 Lava Dart
4 Force of Will
3 Daze
2 Counterspell

My sideboard is just something that's thrown together but I'd like to solidify a strong sideboard. Any help would be appreciated. For reference, this is my current sideboard:

Sideboard (15)
3 Stifle
3 Pyroclasm
1 Shattering Spree
1 Flametongue Kavu
3 Loaming Shaman
2 Krosan Grip
2 Pithing Needle
