Hey, so I was at my first fnm tournament last night and went up against a guy with a decked out rabbleaster deck. He used this card that instantly put 4 more goblin tokens on the field. I can't remember the cards name and when looking it up by the cards ability all I found was Goblin Rally which as far as I know was last printed in gate crashers. The deck was completely focused on Goblin Rabblemaster and putting a tone of tokens on the field really early. Anyone have any ideas?
If it really did put 4 (and you're not mistaken about the number) then it wasn't a Standard legal card. So either he played a card like Hordeling Outburst or Ponyback Brigade that actually put 3 tokens into play and you were mistaken about the number (Or he accidentally put 4 instead of 3 onto the battlefield), he used an illegal card (assuming the FNM was Standard format) OR he had another card like Goblin Slide in play?
I know for certain it was red and he barely had it on the field before putting it in the graveyard. I asked to see it and he said what does it matter? The guy was a dick ever since I messed up the initial draw phase (I thought it was 7 then draw an 8th, like I said above my first fnm night) then after getting that settled crushed him and after that his attitude changed. I didn't bother pushing it at the time cuz I was just there to play and get a better understanding of the game, got crushed the next to games by not so good hands and the table master and what was probably horde king outburst but he did claim it was 4 tokens. Thanks for the help guys I appreciate it!

If he put four tokens into play, he was cheating. If you were playing first, you don't draw a card on your first turn, but if your opponent goes first, you do. If he told you otherwise he was cheating again. Don't let one ******** ruin your overall experience of the game, though. Some people are dicks who like to take advantage of newer players who might not be as familiar with the rules. I'm sure there's someone at your LGS who would be more than happy to talk you through some of the intricacies of the game if you ask around.

It *is* like that if your opponent goes first
(it's meant to compensate for not going first).
If he went first, he lied to you about more than just the tokens.
