Notes
 
Description of deck by ChronicHeaves (quoted):
I was able to get a look at the deck in action, losing to it in an elimination match Round 4. The deck plays differently then any other storm deck we've seen before, with a large number of cards for use specifically AFTER you cast the first Empty the Warrens. The set up is ultimately the same as most storm decks, with library manipulation (Ponder, Peer Through Depths), and mana acceleration (Rite of Flame, Seething Song). Then we get to the post-Warrens package of Distant Melody, Brightstone Ritual, Skirk Prospector, and Goblin War Strike. These actually allow you to use the Empty the Warrens tokens as an engine to continue comboing off, ending with one or two of the aforementioned Goblin War Strikes, killing your opponent right away. This solves some of the problems with previous storm decks, chiefly the turn the opponent gets with your goblin army sitting targets for echoing spells, hurly-burly, martyr of ashes, and a host of other sweepers. Although you can't argue with success, I'm hesitant to crown the deck as The Next Big Thing. Personally, the number of cards that are completely dead until you cast an Empty the Warrens worries me. With combo decks already being prone to mulligans, I'm not sure the ability to kill the same turn it goes off is important enough to outweigh it's increased odds of unkeepable starting hands, and bad topdecks. Time and testing will surely prove one way or another.
