I think I would actually remove Betrothed in Fire for Goblin Sledder. It gives you another 4 creatures and provides a very versatile pump spell.
I think playing a bunch of 0-cost artifacts with Kuldotha in this deck is just a bit too gimicky to be really worth all the slots you devote to it. I'd much rather see some reach Burn spells like Lightning Bolt and Fireblast.
Sparksmith is also quite the staple in Goblin decks. I would consider using a couple throughout your main and sideboard. Although, since you are swarming, he may be a bit too painful...
Well I am thinking of removing foundry street denizen for goblin sledder, but not BoF at this time. The reason is that this deck is a swarm pump deck compared to the more typical goblin list plus burn shell.
I just ordered everything so let me see if the Kadulotha and BoF fail to bring home the gold. However I did play a Goblin deck in Pauper recently so that's why I'm here. I did very well with them. I only lost to combo elves. Everything you see above has been ordered.
Sparksmith...what is up with this guy? He is in all the lists and he seems very lack luster.
You mean that's why Sparksmith is in all goblin lists? I just looked over mono black control and I didn't see her in there.
Hmmm...What is the normal turn duration pauper closes on? For example modern is...was a turn 4 format. If I can kill them fast enough they won't have a chance to get to turn 6...at least I'm hopping. lol
What Xyx failed to communicate properly was that Sparksmith is like a Visara the Dreadful in that they both tap to kill creatures, which is a pretty efficient deal. Having played against goblins, I can tell you that this card will wreck a lot of opponents if left unchecked. It's actually a really important card in many matchups.
Foundry Street Denizen and Goblin Sledder both belong in your deck, in my opinion. Why don't you use something like Dragon Fodder instead? It will just be a lot more reliable, and will free up a lot of space in your deck that will allow you to be a ton more aggressive. I think your damage output would actually increase this way.
Hmmm...I just don't see the power that spark brings, but I'll take your word for it; however, I'll put him on the back burner for now.
I know Kadulotha Gobots are on the fringe, so I'll share with you and the community a few other brews I was thinking about. Personally, I don't know which one would be more competitive.
Swarm + Pump w/ Burn...I was tempted to throw in Betrothed of Fire, but with the amount of two costing cards I'll look the other way.
All w/ Interaction...this version wants to interact on the field while providing pressure; however, it doesn't excel at any one thing outside of interaction.
Have you thought about Rites of Initiation? This card can help tokens out a whole lot, and at instant speed, the opponent won't see it coming. Plus, it will allow you to save up lands you don't need to play anymore, represent Burn spells in your hand that you don't have, and add a combo finish.

Heeey I like that card! Thanks upkeep! I'm going to the Houston GP so if my cards come in on time I'll be able to let you guys know how it went.
Again, this is my main brew attempting to break the seen with Kuldotha Goblins aka Gobots like I have in modern. I replaced Betrothed of Fire for Song of Blood and upped the Simian Spirit Guide count. With 36 creatures I have a very good possibility to hit two to three creatures per Song of Blood; however, their is always a chance to hit zero, but the odds are in my favor.
Here is the same take on the premise, but without Kuldotha elements if it proves to be too janky.
This version is not as explosive in the early turns as it is in the mid game. The more goblins I drop the more mana I have from Brightstone Ritual. The more mana I have the more I can drop, pump, and tap sideways. But, if that plan goes south I can default into a more burn styled support shell and simply lob hot magma into my opponent's face with Goblin Grenade and Goblin War Strike.
I hope you guys like it and I hope this works out.
I've been rocking Kadulotha Gobots in modern and wanted to see what Pauper could do. Here is what I brewed up.
4x Goblin Lookout
4x Mogg War Marshal
4x Goblin Bushwhacker
4x Mogg Conscripts
4x Goblin Cohort
4x Foundry Street Denizen
4x Phyrexian Walker
4x Ornithopter
4x Betrothed of Fire
4x Kuldotha Rebirth
RESOURCES: 20
3x Simian Spirit Guide
4x Great Furnace
13x Mountain
It is a lot of fun to play and it is competitive.
My only question is if I should remove Foundry Street Denizen for Goblin Sledder. Thoughts?
