The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...
Start typing a card name and use the auto-complete feature to quickly select the card you're trying to add. Enter a quantity and add that card to your sideboard!
Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.
I am trying to design a tutorial deck for my younger brother, who's a 6th Grader. Please help me to accommodate the basics of Magic into this goblin deck. :D

Looks like a great starter deck, goblins are one of those tribal type things that are cheap and easy but still very effective. So good pick. As for easy tweaks, lightning bolt over shock is a no brainer. Also I'd consider goblin war strike in there, do that first and then sac em with grenade for a double tap.

I don't want to get my brother used to Lightning Bolt though, haha. Besides, Shock is now much more accessible than Bolt nowadays, and I don't want to go through all that hassle just for him :)) Thank you so much for the suggestions, I would take a look at Goblin War Strike, I don't know if I can still find one, though. :D
So there are creatures, instants, sorceries, ideal land base, enchantments, static ability (haste), legendary creatures, lord cards,what else am i missing? I don't want to put a Spikeshot Elder in here, it's too expensive around these parts. XP
artifacts? (not that goblins REALLY need them) but there arent any artifacts and well, if this is a starter deck then ya do can you check out my goblin deck? http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=219219
i was really thinking of putting an artifact here, just to make the tutorial complete. but the most sensible i can think of right now would be Signal Pest? :D looking at your deck now :)
Goblins were my first deck. Now I play Magic incorrectly. Just don't put in Bone Saws. Too much power.
i'm not aiming to make it overpowered, just decent. thanks for the heads up :D like i said, this deck is originally intended to teach a beginner the basics, although it is weird that goblins actually would stay on the battlefield long enough to teach somebody :))
