Hey all! I'm building a budget Goblin deck to test out with my friends. My budget is about ~$80. I'm trying to get it to 60 cards, and I'll take suggestions for new cards to put in. Thanks!

2 Urza's Hot Tub

2 Gempalm Incinerator
4 Goblin Chieftain
2 Goblin Lookout
4 Goblin Matron
3 Goblin Ringleader
3 Goblin Warchief
3 Krenko, Mob Boss
2 Mogg War Marshal
2 Moggcatcher
3 Siege-Gang Commander

3 Goblin Bombardment
2 Goblin Caves

4 Dragon Fodder
4 Goblin Grenade
3 Goblin War Strike
4
Krenko's Command
4
Goblin Burrows
19
Mountain

Any help is appreciated!

your curve is pretty high will make the Deck very slow. you have to many CC 4+

I would play that artifact that gets counters every time you play a red spell and can do damage equal to the counters on it on it.

Is this better?

x2 Gempalm Incinerator
x4 Goblin Chieftain
x3 Goblin Lookout
x4 Goblin Matron
x3 Goblin Ringleader
x3 Goblin Warchief
x3 Krenko, Mob Boss
x2 Moggcatcher
x2 Reckless One
x2 Siege-Gang Commander

x3 Brightstone Ritual

x3 Dragon Fodder
x4 Goblin Grenade
x3 Goblin War Strike
x3 Krenko's Command

x2 Goblin Burrows
x20 Mountain

Hows this? I'm thinking of dropping the Siege-Ganfs because of their CMC, but maybe the Brightstone Ritual can ramp into it.

Any more advice?

Rituals make Goblin Ringleader worse and mean card disatvantage in exchange for a little boost in tempo, as card advantage is usually the factor where aggro decks either stand or fall I would not play them.

If you don't have the cash for Goblin keycards like Goblin Lackey and Aether Vial try something like early beatdown with tokens and possibly boosting those tokens (with lords) and after that just shoot down your opponent with Goblin Sharpshooter (maybe in combo with Skirk Prospector which is a very strong card) and other stuff like Goblin bombardment, Goblin Grenade maybe Goblin War Strike.

Shrine of Burning Rage is a very good finisher as well in casual play.
