Sideboard options.

{Sowing Salts}. {Splinter}. {Shattering Spree}.

I'd bump up the land by one or two if you plan on keeping Krenko and these SB cards.

Cool deck, I really like that you are trying to bring more tribal to a "Goodstuff format." Personally, I'd cut the {Krenko, Mob Boss}s because they are quite expensive and fail the Bolt test hard. Yes, they are incredible if you can get the off with haste because of a {Goblin King}, but I think he is just a little too slow and expensive. Maybe try {Goblin Rabblemaster} instead. The deck might also benefit from a ritual or two ({Desperate Ritual} or {Pyretic Ritual}) and maybe {Simian Spirit Guide} because they offer ways to dump your hand on the table very quickly. Lastly, I think 12 burn spells are too many for a low curve creature based aggro deck, maybe try {Foundry Street Denizens} over Stokes. Whatever you do, good luck!

Thanks a whole bunch dude. Rabblemaster is a lot better then Krenko and with the denizens in I can swing for a lot more, a lot more sooner

Kaalia with haste

{mogg war catcher} or something like that

Mattao19

{AEther Vial} and {Cavern of Souls} both are basically auto 4-ofs :D

MommaB

May be  {Mardu Scout} for a hasty 3/1 second turn and possibly a good way to get them controllers to waste a counter lol

Ekann1

Maybe find a way to get at least a 3rd if not 4th rabble master in there?

When I played goblins he wasn't very good. I'd reccommend playing red black for {Mad Auntie} and 3/1 haste goblin from RTR is definitely worth it. Rabble I've found is weak compared to more anthems and taking down the opposition faster is always encouraged
