How this deck wins
The deck wins by converting one Krenko tap into exponential resources. , , , , , , and let your token count become mana, cards, or lethal damage instead of just more 1/1s.
Common mistakes
The biggest trap is overloading on cute goblins and underloading on haste, untaps, and payoff damage. A second common mistake is keeping reactive hands because mono-red has some removal. Your best Krenko games are proactive combo-aggro games, not fair tribal games.
