[Deck] Goblin Champions

[GreenOne]

The deck starts with an idea of rufus that was brilliant but never had the proper testing and development. Also, Eseph posted a new combo on the "List of compact combos" thread that seems made with this deck in mind.

The deck is an aggro-combo deck based on the goblin tribal synergy.

- Play Pyromancer (sac kiki if you don't have enough mana)
- Attack with 7-8 hasty 4/1 Matrons for >20 damage.


Why this over Vial Goblins?
I really don't know if this deck is better than Vial Goblins, but the deck has some potential.

Plus:
- It can combo out of nothing with, say, a Warchief+Food Chain in play and a Matron in hand
- Post side it can play like a chalice aggro deck against things like combo (with proper SB building)
- It can play threats at a faster speed. This deck can play matron on turn 1 and ringleader on turn 2.
- Crafter on its own is a solution to Propaganda, Moat and similars.
- 2/3 of the combos go infinite. This might matter against life.deck I guess.
- With higher cmc cards, a connecting lackey/instigator really messes up with the opponent.
- Possibility of playing Warren Instigator on turn 1.

Minus:
- Doesn't run Vial
- Runs cards that are not huge on their own (crafter, kiki, sledder)
- No creature removal other than crafter

Equals:
- it has the same amount of card drawing of Vial Goblins
- same brokenness of Lackey

Is someone interested in this thing? I'm willing to do some testing, but don't have testing partners atm. PM me if you're interested. Meanwhile I did some matches on mws. I won a game against The Rock, and one against vial gobbos against a bad player. Then won another game against Rock and Elves against a good player.
