Character Background
Greasewrench Goblin reads like a scrappy tinkerer who trades card parity for a bit of reliability and a permanent threat: thematically it’s a goblin artificer who slams through your deck for parts, and mechanically it best supports a tempo/value game plan where early aggression and hand‑filtering matter. The one‑time Exhaust discard/draw lets you sculpt a shaky opening or dig for removal and a finisher while turning the Goblin into an increasingly relevant attacker, so treat the activation as a midgame pivot — spend the mana when you need selection or a bigger attacker, not on turn one throwaway. Deckbuilding synergy is concrete: put it in red decks that exploit discard (madness, flashback, graveyard recursion) or in aggro shells that run sacrifice outlets and +1/+1 counter payoffs; it also pairs well with artifact or goblin tribal themes that value an extra body. Because the effect doesn’t net cards, prioritize low‑curve builds and include cheap interaction to protect the growing creature.
