BuildCard details

The Commander

First strike

Other creatures you control have haste.

Whenever Smellerbee attacks, you may discard your hand. If you do, draw cards equal to the number of attacking creatures.

Guide

Gameplan

Flood the board with cheap creatures and tokens, then swing wide every turn—Smellerbee gives them all haste so they attack the moment they hit play. On attack, dump your spent hand to refill with cards equal to your attacker count, turning a wide board into a relentless card-advantage engine that mono-red usually lacks.

Strengths

  • Built-in card advantage solves mono-red's classic problem of running out of gas
  • Universal haste lets every creature and token attack immediately, including reanimated or blinked threats
  • Cheap to cast at 4 mana and recasts easily after removal
  • Rewards going wide, which synergizes with token makers and anthem effects

Weaknesses

  • Refill only works when you have lots of attackers, so a board wipe shuts the engine off
  • Mono-red lacks efficient removal and interaction outside of burn
  • Discarding your hand before drawing can whiff into dead cards or empty refills
  • Vulnerable to fog effects, sweepers, and go-tall blockers that punish wide attacks
  • No evasion baked in, so ground stalls can stop the aggression

Key Cards

  • Krenko, Mob Boss — Floods the board with Goblins that immediately attack thanks to Smellerbee's haste, maximizing both damage and the draw trigger.
  • Purphoros, God of the Forge — Turns every token entering into direct damage, providing reach that goes wide can't always get through blockers.
  • Impact Tremors — Each hasty creature you flood out pings every opponent, converting board width into inevitable damage.
  • Goblin Bombardment — A free sacrifice outlet to turn excess tokens into damage and to dodge wraths.
  • Hellrider — Deals damage for each attacker, scaling perfectly with Smellerbee's wide-attack plan.
  • Reckless Fireweaver — Another artifact/token payoff that drains opponents as your board grows.
  • Skullclamp — Adds a second card-draw engine that loves the small tokens this deck produces.

Upgrade Path

Add fast mana like Sol Ring, Jeska's Will, and Mana Crypt to deploy multiple threats per turn, plus token doublers such as Mondrak or Anointed Procession to widen the board and supercharge the draw trigger. Lean into mono-red staples like Dockside Extortionist, Goblin Recruiter chains, and overrun effects (Craterhoof-style payoffs) for explosive finishes, and include haste-relevant recursion like Feldon of the Third Path to keep refueling.

Archetypes

  • Goblins — The tribe's fast, token-heavy builds slot perfectly into the haste-plus-refill engine.
  • Aristocrats — Sacrifice outlets and damage-on-ETB effects convert wide boards into reach and value.
  • Hatebears / Aggro-Stax — Hasty disruptive bodies can pressure opponents while you tax their interaction.
