Secret Lair Commander Deck: Goblin Storm released on May 18, 2026. It is a 100-card preconstructed Commander deck from the Secret Lair series, led by Zada, Hedron Grinder in mono-red, with Krenko, Mob Boss and Pashalik Mons included as alternate commanders.

The deck goes wide with Goblins, then aims cheap instants and sorceries at Zada, Hedron Grinder to copy them for every other creature you control, turning a single cantrip into a board-wide draw and a lethal pump. Krenko, Mob Boss and Pashalik Mons steer toward a token-flood plan instead. The face commander links into Playgroup's stats pages for playrate, win rate, ELO, and average game length, and a one-click Playtest in Playgroup Live button drops you into a solo game with the decklist already imported.

Goblin Storm is a Secret Lair product, so its cards print in the Secret Lair series rather than a numbered expansion set. The full decklist is published in Wizards' official announcement.

Who is the commander of Goblin Storm?
Goblin Storm is led by Zada, Hedron Grinder in mono-red, with Krenko, Mob Boss and Pashalik Mons included as alternate commanders you can build around instead.
How does Zada, Hedron Grinder work in Goblin Storm?
Zada copies a single-target instant or sorcery once for every other creature you control. The deck floods the board with Goblins, then casts cheap cantrips and pump spells targeting Zada so each one copies across the whole team, drawing cards and growing a lethal attack.

It suits players comfortable with a linear go-wide plan. The Zada copy engine rewards sequencing your spells well, so it carries a bit more decision density than a basic creatures-and-combat deck.
