​@@kalikaizJust finished watching the league, that was such a clean 5-0! The list is really much more refined from where it started, leaning into Burning Prophet as card selection and a win condition rather than just pingers. 7 pingers down to 2! Also, with the 7 cost reducers over 4, Guttersnipe is much more effective as a 2 damage pinger for R. Glimpse the Impossible is insane as an Ancestral Recall in red in Pauper. And Highway Robbery saccing all your lands on the combo turn reminded me of Deadly Disputes on artifact lands. Well done!

@kalikaiz I have been trying to brew around first day of class, goblin anarchomamcer and fast mana, this deck has reawakened my interest in turbo-goblins. :)

I could see Bryant from TheEpicStorm working on this decklist and offering his expertise to level up the archetype. One thing I noticed while you play the deck is that you tend to value the second "ruby" effect very highly, when there's only so many cards that benefit from them. Specially when you have a couple of Eldrazi Spawns around that are basically one-shots of ruby effects. Not saying that playing out the second one is not good, but you sometimes play it before a 1R card so you end up "wasting" the mana that you could use to not fizzle. Just a slight improvement over your plays, but other than that you are doing great! love the deck, love the videos and keep at it please!

I tried a lot of other card draw and I think this one is the best because of the sac a land clause. Anything else makes you discard, and because we barely have cards in hand it doesn't really work. I tried pairing synth with demand answers as well but that is a touch unreliable
