Lightning Volley

Necrosis24 on What to do against Rakdos, …

Okay so Soul's Fire and those other card's I suggested don't have the board wipe capability I had previously thought but in the scope of Zada I still believe they function as single target removal as you are constantly pumping your creatures. There is also Lightning Volley and Flame Fusillade which are only really good with a solid board state.
Otherwise I'd go with what Ramble suggested and fling away. I do believe Chaos Warp is still worth including since there are 2-3 other players to consider and worst comes to worst you use it against the Rakdos player and one big thing gets substituted for another, but sometimes all you need to do is get rid of Rakdos, Lord of Riots for a turn or a key combo piece.

Thanks! I was not aware that deathtouch interactions work like that. That definitely adds some interesting removal options. I'm a big fan of Lightning Volley , that sounds awesome.
And more political cards are always welcome. If I understand correctly, you could even deny others the effect of Oath of Lieges by targetting the players themselves, right? That's even better.
Thanks for the suggestions!

fun deck! A couple things come to mind.
Deathtouch is not limited to combat damage. An Arcbond , Lavamancer's Skill Power of Fire or Lightning Volley can help your assassins assassinate a lot more hapless victims
I like that humble defector is in here Soldevi Sentry and Wall of Shards are other great political pieces (although wall of shards has shot up in the past couple weeks with all the new snow decks going around, might want to wait to get one) Oath of Lieges is probably my favorite political card. Nobody wants to kill you.

Afraid not. Lightning Volley gives Goblin Sharpshooter two identical abilities, each with a cost of tapping the creature and effect of dealing one damage.

For example, if I have Goblin Sharpshooter & play Lightning Volley would it gain an additional 1 damage per tap (Meaning it deals 2 damage) or would it only double up the ability to deal exactly/only "1 damage per tap"?

Added Mob Justice, Illusionist's Bracers, Eldrazi Monument, Mana Echoes, Goblin War Strike, Thornbite Staff, Impact Tremors, Hordeling Outburst, Disrupt Decorum, and Coat of Arms. Removed Archetype of Aggression, Chaos Warp, Goblin Assassin, Hellrider, Lightning Volley, Mogg Alarm, Reforge the Soul, Surge of Zeal, Spikeshot Elder, and Thunderous Might. I have my reasons for each card replacement. The old ones either didn't fit the deck, were replaced with a better version, or pissed everyone off too early.
The replacement cards are what really matter. Mob Justice and Goblin War Strike deal horrendous amounts of damage on the cheap. Stick Thornbite Staff on Krenko, untap him when something dies. It also lets me go infinite if something dies. Illusionist's Bracers lets me copy Krenko's skill for four times the goblins. Disrupt Decorum makes everyone else kill each other. Best to use it when they're all mad at me already. Hordeling outburst is basically just a better version of Mogg Alarm. Eldrazi Monument protects me from boardwipes and fliers. Coat of Arms gives me ridiculous power without powering up the other players too much. Mana Echoes gives me tremendous ramping power. Play Impact Tremors when I have 40+ goblins, it resolves, tap Krenko, EVERYONE DIES.
I think this may be the final version of this deck. I can't really think of any improvements.

Casey4321: Ooh, an intriguing idea! I'll try and check it out tonight.
n0bunga: I think you have to go with the Sandman reference, man. Perhaps something about "Lord of the Dreaming" with an image of Dream (the Neil Gaiman version) perhaps?
enpc: I like this plan! Don't forget Furystoke Giant, Lightning Volley, Brawl, Retraction Helix, Banishing Knack, Shoving Match, Opposition, and Arcanis the Omnipotent if you're going all-in Paradox Engine :)
