Welcome to Goblin of the Week, where the concept is so sinple even Goblin players will get it. Every week, we pick one Goblin. That Goblin is Goblin of the Week. That's it. We are also aware there’s a typo in the first sentence but we don’t fixing typos for Goblin of the Week either which is a new rule we just invtented.

You may be wondering how we pick the illustrious Goblin of the Week? You're assuming we've thought that far ahead. And thinking is for Blue.

Our very first Goblin of the Week is none other than Mons’ Goblin Raiders. In many ways, it is the platonic ideal of Goblin. One Red. 1/1. Goblin. Remove any one element, and it is less Goblin. Add, and the elegance is lost. I admire its purity. Mons knows what's up.

The original art by Jeff A Menges is something to behold. These are the kinds of goblins that steal your children and eat their thumbs. And hang out on top of boulders smoking cigareetes. Just real bad hombres.

Join us next week when we pick another different Goblin.
