(Card Rating: 3.5) Due to the fact that this card's ability is not increased by having more than one in play, this card is best used as a "one of" in a goblin deck. I use one of these in my personal favorite casual multiplayer black/red goblin deck. Because I am also running one Demonic Tutor and one Vampiric Tutor, I occasionally have the ability to search out this card if necessary. I use cards such as: 4 Knucklebone Witch, 2 Boggart Shenanigans, 1 Goblin Sharpshooter, and 1 Wort, Boggart Auntie to capitalize on sending goblins to the graveyard. I also included 4 Mogg War Marshal to provide the fodder needed to use the heavy activation cost. This card is very helpful when being attacked by creatures without trample. You are able to block the creatures, then sacrifice the blockers to produce more goblins. A major drawback and another reason this card should be only a "one of" in a goblin deck is that it requires 2 goblins for the activation cost. It is not the card you want to see after a board wipe and an empty hand. If you want a more "stable" version, try Weirding Shaman. Even alone, it can beat face or sacrifice itself to it's own ability. (Posted By: Misago)
