Commander: The Great Goblin

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

The Great Goblin is a goblin/Orc/army aristocrat burn engine. The primary plan is to flood the board with Goblin and Army tokens, then use amass and +1/+1 counter effects to trigger The Great Goblin's 2-damage ping while sacrificing creatures for card advantage and extra burn. Secondary paths are a wide combat kill with Shared Animosity, Goblin Lookout, and Krenko, Mob Boss, plus a slower sacrifice/drain finish through Boggart Shenanigans, Zulaport Cutthroat, and Siege-Gang Commander. The commander is the damage and card-advantage engine; Krenko, Mob Boss functions as the main lieutenant but is not a true hidden commander. The deck is not a combo deck.
