Commander: Krenko, Mob Boss

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Krenko, Mob Boss is a mono-red Goblin swarm deck that wins by doubling its board every turn. You build a small Goblin count, resolve Krenko with haste from Goblin Warchief, Goblin Chieftain or Howlsquad Heavy, then tap to double tokens and close with combat anthems like Shared Animosity and Coat of Arms or ETB pings from Purphoros, God of the Forge and Impact Tremors. Secondary paths include Muxus, Goblin Grandee and Goblin Lackey/Warren Instigator cheats, Kiki-Jiki value, and sacrifice damage from Goblin Bombardment, Boggart Shenanigans and Pashalik Mons. Purphoros acts as a hidden commander as an alternate payoff that wins without attacking. Krenko is the central engine and combo piece; without him the deck slows sharply.
