7th + Apocalypse Goblins

Anyone remember that Dralnu's Crusade contest? Now that 7th ed. has arrived and Apocalypse is hitting the stores in few weeks, I'll providing you with an updated Goblin.dec :)

The overall quality of Goblins has improved quite a bit with Goblin Raider, Chariot and Legionnaire.
I also included some Apocalypse spells like Order/Chaos (removing a nasty attacker or dealing the killing blow sounds good to me) and the nearly always useful Vindicate.

Here's my decklist:

Red:
4 Seal of Fire
4 Raging Goblin
4 Goblin Raider
4 Goblin Chariot
4 Goblin King
4 Goblin Ringleader

Gold/Split:
4 Goblin Legionnaire
2 Terminate
4 Dralnu's Crusade
2 Vindicate
2 Order/Chaos

Lands:
10 Mountains
4 Battlefield Forge
4 Sulfurous Springs
4 Caves of Koilos

no s/b as of yet.
Have fun!

It looks OK, but don't expect to be able to cast a goblin every turn very easily with all the gold cards.

Ok. Colors that are splashes should have a higher average cc or a lower average cc than the main color.

Keeping in mind your 8 black mana sources, you often won't be able to play a second turn terminate (indeed, odds favor your not doing so as you are busy droppin' Goblins.)

So, I recommend you replace Terminate with Void. I know terminate has it's place, but we'll look into that in a second.

Also, it seems that a deck using a creature swarm in Red, Black, and White would do well to look into Fervent Charge. Try no more than 2, though.

For sideboard, this is a good first draft.

4 Terminates (those Spiritmongers)
4 Dodecapod (discard decks...this slot may not be needed, depending on your ability to beat a discard deck)
4 Gerrard's Verdict (control decks)
3 Orim's Thunder (you have white mana. And what if they drop Teferi's Moat?)
