{Coat of Arms} and {Door of Destinies} come to mind!

{Barrage of Expendables} is pretty great for a deck that spawns a lot of weenies, too!

And any spell that provides a lot of fodder if you want to really spam the tokens - {Dragon Fodder}, {Krenko's Command} type stuff - anything that puts two or more tokens on the field.

{Rage Thrower}, {Hissing Iguanar}, and {Vicious Shadows} are brutal in a deck like this! My Ulasht token deck uses them and it really makes players think twice about board-wipes (because you kill them for it lol)

{Wild Ricochet} is always a red favorite of mine. {Increasing Vengeance} and {Reverberate} can be great too if you have anything especially fun to copy.

I'm not sure if its a good option or not in a goblin deck, but you could consider {Hellion Eruption}. Turns your 1/1 goblins into 4/4 hellions, triggers death effects like {Vicious Shadows} (multiple times each creature if you {Reverberate} it), and even though you lose all goblin tribal bonuses with them, {Coat of Arms} will stil be lethal with Hellion as a shared type. You can also use it as a surprise killing blow if they all have haste somehow (looking at you, {Hammer of Purphuros}).


Speaking of Purphuros... {Purphuros, God of the Forge} kinda works really friggen well here, huh?

In have a {Krenko, Mob Boss} edh deck all based on speed and low drop goblins to crank krenko ASAP using cards like {Fervor} and {Hammer of Purphoros}.

This is the base then you need one and two drop mono red goblins like {Goblin Diplomats},  {Goblin Lackey}, and  {Mogg Raider}.

Then you need to use a few goblins to boost your tokens like  {Goblin King} and {Goblin Chieftain}.

Finally I like using spells and creatures to finish off your opponents. My favs are  {Purphoros, God of the Forge} when cranking out tokens,  {Soulblast} when you have the amount and feeling risky, or  {Flame Fusillade} for the ko.

And when you want to be hated and never make friends in edh use {Blood Moon}

Also I you want me to post my deck list I can. I would just need to drop it into the app

TL;DR small goblins and hastes to set up krenko, medium goblins to beef up tokens, and finishing spells and creatures to nail it home
