Deck discussion for Legacy Goblins

This is a pretty nice build. Though a lot of the tournament players have been splashing GW, I think black splash might have the better matchup vs combo.

I'll just throw in my 2 cents. Mostly just minor optimization stuff.

I'm assuming the Auntie's Hovels are because of budget concerns, they are playable but not ideal of course. Secondly I would consider running 1 Stingscourger and 1 Weirding in the mainboard instead of 2 Weirdings just to diversify your hate that extra little bit.

Sideboard, really its hard to say without knowing what decks you play against, but it feels like 6 graveyard hate cards is wasting sideboard slots. Of course there are a lot of ways to go with graveyard hate, I'd use maybe 4 slots for it, but make sure to diversify so they cant all be taken out by a Surgical Extraction (which you might even considering using yourself here).

It also kind of feels like you could get by with fewer Perish (Im assuming youre just running it for RUG and Elves). I'm thinking a 3rd Pyrokinesis might be better.

Also try looking at Earwig Squad. They are decent combo hate if you cast them for prowl. Lastly, if you do run into any Show and Tell decks (particularly the Omniscience variants), Angel of Despair is one of the best hate cards you can have for that matchup.

Auntie's hovel seemed like an easy to cut a hundred from the build lol
This Is my attempt to get into legacy so while I put the mainboard together the side board was entirely ripped from someone else's deck I mentioned that not very eloquently in the top (I was tire by the time I wrote the intro) so I'm more worried about the main board for now
I think ill add the stingscourger probably over chieften though I like having warren's weirding at 2 (at least in goldfishing I have damn imaginary tamorgoyf) most of the two dozen list had just 1 children anyway

Have u considered Frogtosser Banneret? I think it could make ur deck faster and make u able to use more Chieftains instead of Warchief. That mean more firepower for ur goblins!

It wouldn't be more chieften it'd would be faster
The problem is a turn 2 black source I may try a 1-2 warchief Banneret split thou
Also the 1/1 difference in power toughness is not entirely irrelevant

1-3 split I mean maybe 2-2 I don't know (for some reason I thought I just had 3 but u have the full 4)

Banneret isnt horrible, but the ability to give other goblins haste on Warchief is just as relevant as its cost decreasing ability.

Im not sure whether I'd switch any, you could try a 1-3 split as an experiment.

ive heard of people having a pretty decent amount of sucsess with banneret but i havent been sold on him either but he can make a otherwise slow hand a little more explosive
but thus is kind of my intro to legacy so despite a couple hundred pages of primers im still getting used to the format
