Look, here's the deal with goblins- it's got rough match ups now. Those match-ups are Thresh and combo (with landstill coming back close to even with goblins having to adjust to deal with the other two). Combo is just shitty. Shitty shitty shitty. There's almost no way you're ever going to get an even to favorable match up against combo with goblins without making Thresh and Landstill auto losses. Since the things that are good against thresh are also good against control, my plan is to pretty much throw away the combo match-ups and depend on the rest of the metagame to deal with them.

White is good against Thresh(or rather, Tarmagoyf). That's about it. It doesn't help any other match up. Black does. Smother might as well be StP in this format. Therapy is awesome against control at forcing your bombs through (Ringleader, SGC, Bidding) while also giving you something against combo. Bidding is crazy. Simply put, black gives you answers to just about everything.
