May want to consider use of Aurelia, the Warleader from the new Gatecrash set if you are just plain having too much trouble getting out Gisela.  Cheaper cost and amazing synergy with....attacking.

sorry, yes Lightning Crafter.  Was in between replying to your post and doing some work... smile

Good luck, Goblins is fun to play and play against.

In addition to the esteemed Dr's analysis, I'd also add 6 more lands to make sure you can get stuff out early in the game.  Nothing worse than needing that one black and continuing to pull non-lands. 

Also, no real need for the Blackcleave Goblin unless you are planning on an amazing 10-turn infect win-con against someone big_smile

Am I missing seeing Goblin Piledriver in the list?

If you have these handy, they will dramatically improve the speed of your deck:

- Aether Vial (put stuff into play for free)
- Wheel of Fortune / Wheel of Fate (reload Goblins into hand)
- Goblin Shaman lets you Champion a Goblin so you can insulate yourself somewhat against mass removal, like the Boggart Mob does.  A Crypt Champion does the same and may net you another Goblin from your yard in the process as well.
- Mana Echoes - gives you colorless per creature of that type in play...dump out Goblins fast!

Other considerations:

Door of Destinies - makes Goblins big, fast
Coat of Arms - ditto

If you were purposely not playing artifacts, consider a Shattering Spree and/or a Shatterstorm, as just about anyone else you are playing will be.

Lastly, seems like a couple of EDH staples, Sol Ring and Skullclamp, are missing..along with perhaps a Demonic Tutor and/or Vampiric Tutor to go get your Goblin Recruiter, which is really the key to any Goblin deck.

drn, I have almost all of those (including the Sun Quan, CA version).  If you are willing to wait until I get home tonite, I can work something out with you as I do not have them posted on deckbox at the moment.

if you don't like what you see, let me know. I can make all your wildest dreams come true.

you still selling?

People have the right to value cards at whatever they like.  If they don't do it conventionally, well that just makes them harder for the rest of the community to trade with - but that's what they are willing to accept to accomplish their own trade goals.

In other news, ChannelFireball has foil Deathrites at 50 apiece, which is also where they are falling on ebay BINs and auctions.

Tariel is only from this pre-con as well and is excellent in it.

thanks so much for your interest everyone!

Current trade valuings are:

Accessories

- All oversized general cards $2 each?
- Limited edition card sleeves (still in cellophane) $18
- +/- counters (still in cellophane except for the two that come loose in box) $10

Cards (these are all CA foils)

- Loyal Retainers $40
- Diaochan x2 $10
- Sylvan Library $50
- Chaos Warp $8
- Dragonlair Spider $3?
- The Mimeoplasm $6
- Vela, the Night-Clad $4

The Mimeoplasm is currently involved in a trade, but the others are still available.  Please note that I have very little on my tradelist at the moment since I'm in the middle of redoing it, so I'll keep the updates on what's available on this thread for now.  Thanks in advance!

Trade sent for a sealed FTV: Exiled!

Howdy,

Sitting in my drawer is a box containing all of the sealed Archenemy sets, and also a sealed Jace v Chandra boxed set.  All are in English.

Value Archenemy sets at 25 each (shipping included), the group of 4 for 90.   Jace v Chandra at 90 including shipping.  These are right in line or just below ebay BINs.

Wishlist items are great, but I can almost always find goodies if you are willing to part with format staples.

Hey Gang, recently picked up a Commander's Arsenal, but I don't need all of the stuff from it.  Here is what is for trade:

Accessories

- All oversized general cards
- Limited edition card sleeves (still in cellophane)
- +/- counters (still in cellophane except for the two that come loose in box)

Cards (these are all CA foils)

- Loyal Retainers
- Diaochan x2
- Sylvan Library
- Chaos Warp
- Dragonlair Spider
- The Mimeoplasm
- Vela, the Night-Clad

Wishlist items are great, but just let me know if you are interested and I'll peek at what you have to try and work something out.

what are you valung a sealed box at?

As always, it will depend on the metagame of your LGS / wherever you play as to how and when decks can see success.  I'd tend to lean towards the intent of the Battalion mechanic trying to balance out the life gain Garuda mentioned (assuming Bant control with Thragtusk and/or Sphinx's Revelation are your worry).  Especially the cards that grant double strike.

If you're a B/W/R player, are you thinking about combining a B/W tokens build with some game changers like Aurelia?  Sounds fun, if anything else!

Obzedat and the new Gideon look pretty darn solid, but the sleeper is going to be Frontline Medic with all of the white flying around.  It's even splashable since it's one W / 2 C

apparently they seem to enjoy giving me the Penguin ones...didn't even realize they made anything else lately wink

I have one of the Commander's Arsenal versions.  Are you deadset on P3K?

Save the Bonfire and Thragtusk for me.  I just got a bunch of new crap and can make all your wildest dreams come true.  Assume you can make it to the gamestore Friday?

if you are going to run Goblins, find the ones that Champion a Goblin.  A guy that runs a Wort deck at our LGS runs those and when there are board wipes, boom he is still one or two ahead.  Pain in the arse, really.

hey that deck is not nearly as degenerate as it could be, I made it with extra cards.  Yes, I had an extra mana drain.
