Okay, there is the absolutely ridiculous way to do 20 damage, utilizing Ghoultree and Fling.
Or the slightly easier way to do 20 damage using Brimstone Volley and Reverberate.
Dont think I can fit both into the deck at full capacity...
If you build it an aggro deck, you might not need ghoultree. Just Attack in the early turns, play bloodletting and then cast burninating spells and fling stuff!

Why not? If you are playing the ramp package that duals as speed bumps, you should be able to live that long anyway. Put in some extra burns and sweepers and you'll be fine!

Exactly, I could just play goblins, then pop a grenade for 10 and a Brimstone for 10 for an aggro combo deck. (or reverberate on a nade or brimstone for 20)
Or I can go the slower route with green, ramp up, play some tiddlewinks, then BAM 20 to the face!
Theres a couple diff directions to go.
The way I should be going is probably away from this thread, and this idea.

Yeah dude, **** that stupid tree. Goblin Grenade and Brimstone Volley all day.
Fling is dumb, it's always dead or absent when you want it. Ramping into burn is the best way to make this terrible glorious idea the most playable.
Also, might I suggest Goblin Fireslinger to enable volley and chip, chip away while you set your pieces up.
Ramp? I was going to head in the direction of card draw. Mycosynth just puts the land in your hand; since we are looking aggro/combo, we can't waste a turn on land. If we went Ichor we could be getting answers or lands. Throw in a couple Phyrexia's Core to get the other end of it.
The curse isn't dead in multiples, Furnace of Rath in a pair multiplied the damage by 4 (Damage*2*2).
Am I the only one not embarrassed to mention bitterheart witch? C'mon, you know this is the day she's been waiting for. Deathtouch chump blocker and fetches your centerpiece, eliminating (or lessening) the need for card draw? Yes please. If you wanted to be really silly you could add heartless summoning and rage thrower, suddenly that card that makes 5 tokens is a one-hit kill... (I know, I know...)
So... I was always a fan of Gratuitous Violence and actually pooped on people with that terrible terrible card.
This brings back nostalgic memories.
FLING
Brimstone Volley
Oh god... im going to do it again.
Im going to brew something completely stupid again arent I?
GHOULTREE YOU SAY?
FLING YOU SAY?
CURSE OF BLOODLETTING YOU SAY?
20 DAMAGE IN ONE TURN FOR 3 MANA?
WOOP WOOP!
OH god... make it stop...
Fill up my yard using Viridian Emissary and Solemn Simulacrum.
Lol stall until I get all my combo pieces together with Brindle Boar.
These thoughts... why...
MAKE IT STOP.
I DONT WANT TO MAKE THIS DECK... WHY BRAIN? WHY DO YOU THINK ABOUT THIS?
Lol I sweep my own creatures with Blasphemous Act...
Why brain? Why you do this to me?
What is that brain? You want me to make R/G goblins? With Ghoultree Fling? Why Brain? Why would you want me to do that?
This isnt constructed playable...
Stop... thinking... about it...
(BTW: The picture on the card is of me, thinking about how to use this card)
Come on, wheres the mock up list? Don't tease us with the possibility of a real combo deck in standard! lol
4x Ghoultree
4x Fling
4x Curse of Bloodletting
.. I like where your head is at.

4 Viridian Emissary (mana)
4 Solemn Simulacrum (mana)
4 Hellrider (easy extra beats)
4 Vorapede (beater)
4 Ghoultree (Fling target)
4 Arc Trail (Board cleaner)
4 Incinerate (removal)
4 Fling (finisher)
4 Brimstone Volley (half finisher)
4 Curse of Bloodletting (center piece)
20 Lands
Obviously the list is short mana, I'd probably bump it up to 24, but the idea looks solid. At 7 mana you can play the curse and fling all in one turn.
Edit: I realized after posting this that Hellrider is crazy amazing with Bloodletting.

But while I'm here I'll suggest the perfect curve of hellrider into bloodletting.

That's 32. Need maybe 23 lands... leaving us 5 spots. 3x Incinerate, 2x Chandra the Firebrand ?

Goblin Wardriver isn't any good. Just go straight for the Lord in Goblin Chieftain, bigger and faster goblins is good.
"Reveal a Dragon"
How in the world did I skip over chieftain?!
You're right. Bring on the horde of suicidal goblins led by a warmongering devil and his curses.

How about Kuldotha Rebirth (for grenade fodder) with Mycosynth Wellspring? Those little tokens would work great with Helldriver...
[edit] Honestly, to try and make this actually work, I would go
-4 shrines
-2 chandra
-1 namesake curse (dead in multiples)
for
+3 kuldotha
+3 wellspring
+1 incinerate
