And sub Lightning Crafter for Goblin Chieftain?

I actually like Goblin Chieftain because it helps Warren Instigator late game, especially with the double strike. It also helps with math combat sometimes. Oh well, I dont have much experience with Goblins.

Also, what is the general consensus on slots dedicated to Siege-Gang Commander? would 2 be enough in a mono-red build with 7 Lackey effects and Vials or should I bump it up to 3?
no, there are always room for little nuances, and allowances for personal style/meta... but a 21 land base is more than fine in mono red... and I don't think he plays crafter, though I could be wrong, it could be a recent addition... My own differences is I play all 8 hasters and 8 lackey's... mostly because I like the ultra explosiveness of the deck...

Personally, I think 3 SGC is the new hottness... try 3 for a while, it's way consistent for the lackey, even with 7, just try it, then try 2 for a while, see which you prefer
