Deck overview

This is a Rakdos Goblin/Orc/Army tribal deck helmed by The Great Goblin, built almost entirely around the amass mechanic. Every amass trigger that puts counters on an Army converts into 2 damage via the commander's ping, while each Goblin/Orc/Army death exiles the top card of the library for repeatable, playable card advantage. The deck floods the board with goblin tokens (Dragon Fodder, Krenko, Mob Boss, Empty the Warrens), grows a single massive Army through a dozen amass effects, and finishes through combat boosted by lords (Goblin Chieftain, Goblin Warchief) and direct damage (Goblin Grenade, Goblin War Strike, Goblin Bombardment). A small storm package with Underworld Breach and rituals offers an explosive secondary line. The commander is the engine that ties the ping reach and card flow together.
