I went, but didn't play Gobs and scrubbed out early. A number of people were playing a very close list to this one. I know one other guy went 5-2 just barely missing top 16 with a very similar list. Both of them didn't run instigator, ran 4 fetches two duals and a basic and 3 ports. Not sure about the boards.

You can see in the article he had pretty good match ups. Not facing combo pretty much all day if I recall, but obviously a good player to make it that far. There were quite a few goblins players there all in all.
Awesome, I was hoping to read about what he played. I'm planning on taking goblins to SCG 5k Atlanta. My question is now, wtf build do I use? I mean yea he did great with the deck and dominated pretty much, but he didn't play zoo or combo, and somehow being pyschic I guess he puts in 6 lands haters and manages to play lands 3 times and destroy two with blood moon. Also the last two big finishes by goblins might have raised the amount of goblins in the metagame, so do I have to have pyrokinesis in sb? What about 4 Gempalms, Chieftains? I'm lost. I think at Richmond goblins made up 2.5% of the field, at Indy it went up to 3.85%, at Orlando there seems to be more. So should I be figuring in for the mirror? Cuz I don't really like pyrokines except its a house in the mirror.
