Hi Asiimov, thanks for the comments and suggestions! I can see how Mad Auntie and Boggart Birth Rite could be useful, however, I'm not sure if they're valuable enough to include in this deck. While snoop is pretty vulnerable to removal, the deck can function well enough if it is answered (and I can pretty easily find another one if needed). So while they could be helpful, I think I would almost always prefer drawing or tutoring for another card instead.

Goblin Grenade is really interesting and I really like that idea. What I may do is put in a few copies of Tarfire in the sideboard, because that can be tutored or played from the top of the library with snoop. I'm sure grenade would work just as well if not better though, I just personally like the utility of getting some burn damage in whenever I need with tutors. Thoughtseize and Earwig Squad are also good ideas and I think I'll put them in the sideboard at some point, depending on the meta.

Blood for Bones is cute and could do some crazy things, I think it might just be a little slow for modern. If you end up building a goblins deck and run that card, let me know how it goes!

Finally, I think you could definitely get away with 22 lands. I decided to go with 23 because I've found that matches with this deck can get kind of grindy and missing land drops can be brutal, but playing with 22 lands is definitely doable if you replace that land with a card with a low converted mana cost.

I love the deck, I’m trying to build it IRL. What about Mad Auntie and Boggart Birth Rite for protect snoop? I will put 4 Goblin Grenade in sb for « secret tech » it’s a good surprise for opponent for second game ^^ 2-3 thoughtseize mean be good also.. Earwig Squad is a good card for SB

Have you feedback on different match up?

Thank You! If you wanted to go non-budget, Seat of the Synod is a great replacement for islands. My main goal of this re-design was to try to crack open Tooth of Chiss-Goria, i knew it was possible. Tooth is a very underrated card (Because it is Trash in 99% of decks) but hopefully somebody could break it further. I am currently brewing around Boggart Birth Rite, another "Trash" card, and how it can loop with a copy of itself. I'm not that good at designing sideboards, seems like dead weight to me, so that is why I didn't put a sideboard in.

Hey lobsternips! Thought I'd jump in and give you my take on what you've got going on. Your noncreature spells look fantastic, not much I would take out, but if you can find a way to fit in some creature recursion in Rise of the Dark Realms or Thrilling Encore with your mass creature destruction in dictate or Killing Wave . Also bounce-type effects like Conjurer's Closet could make use of your etb effects, you'd definitely see some usefulness there. The only problem I see with this deck is its SUPER heavy into red, there are some non-red Goblins out there, but you'd basically be playing a Red deck splashing white and black for support. However, Goblins are funny and mean just like Negan.

As for creatures, I love what you're doing. Lots of synergy, and I love the Goblin tribal theme. Also, love the Kiki-Jiki inclusion, plus with snoop you sorta just win.

Hope I helped some, I probably didn't seeing as I gave more inclusion suggestions rather than cuts. If you decide on doing one thing like "Go Wide" or "Go Tall", adjust your cards to reflect that. Aside from that good luck on your deckbuilding!

My spoilers in the comment above arnt working for me so im trying something different. "If you want to sift through some cards you can look at each section, but I would recommend just looking at the first grouping to start with, as I went a bit too far with the other lists. Those lists are fine to just look at ideas or "good cards" but there are far too many to call them suggestions.

In addition to what Caerwyn said, another thing that is mildly relevant is that Goblin Matron , Goblin Recruiter , and Boggart Harbinger can all tutor Boggart Birth Rite , and it is relevant to Sensation Gorger , Auntie's Hovel , and Goblin Ringleader .

A bit of redundancy is pretty good.

I'm just trying to understand what I'm not seeing. As far as I can tell, if you're running Wort, Boggart Auntie as your commander, Boggart Birth Rite is nothing but a one-time back-up for your commander. But even so I see it used in lots of Wort decks.

Yes, you can retrieve the spell with Wort, but why would you do that, when you could just retrieve the spell you want (for one less mana vs. retrieving/using Birth Rite)?

So am I missing some cool combo that those two can do in an EDH deck, or do lots of people just want a (one-use) backup for Wort?
