Rally Your Horde with Battle Cry Goblin
Battle Cry Goblin is the quintessential tribal enabler for any goblin-themed deck in Adventures in the Forgotten Realms. This 2/2 creature offers more than just a sturdy body for two mana—it acts as a catalyst for aggressive strategies by granting all your goblins a +1 boost and haste until the end of turn. That means your goblin swarm can strike fast and hit hard, maximizing pressure on your opponent's defenses. The activated ability costs just one red mana and one generic mana, making it an efficient way to turn your modest goblin army into a lightning-fast assault force.
Its Pack tactics ability brings a clever synergy to the table: when you launch an offensive with creatures totaling six or more power, you get a free 1/1 red Goblin token that comes into play tapped and attacking. This reward amplifies your board presence mid-combat, offering a reliable way to continue overwhelming your opponent in subsequent turns. Battle Cry Goblin finds excellent synergy alongside cards like Goblin Instigator and Skullknocker, both of which produce tokens or benefit from haste effects. For players looking to build a fast, relentless goblin deck, this card is a must-have that fits neatly into any aggressive red shell.
