Goblin Lackey
Oracle Text
Whenever this creature deals damage to a player, you may put a Goblin permanent card from your hand onto the battlefield.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Goblin Lackey is a classic one-drop that best supports aggressive tribal and tempo-oriented Goblin decks, turning early chip damage into explosive board development. As a 1/1 for a single red mana, it asks very little upfront, but if it connects even once, it can cheat a Goblin permanent card from your hand directly onto the battlefield, often jumping you several turns ahead in mana. In practice, this means you want cheap ways to force damage through—battle tricks, evasion enablers, or clearing blockers—and a deck built with a high density of impactful Goblins at varying costs. It pairs especially well with cards like Goblin Warchief, Siege-Gang Commander, or other high-impact tribal payoffs, since Lackey turns combat damage into immediate value. In Mystery Booster 2, it remains a dangerous snowball card: protect it, attack early, and let the first hit do the real work.
