If I may make a recommendation. Try swapping out most of your non-basic lands except maybe 2 or 3 of your very best ones like Valakut and Bandit Lord. Then, play all Snow Covered Mountains and add Planar Nexus to your Artifacts as well as Winter Moon for additional non-basic land hate. And, if you're feeling particularly mean, you can add a copy of Ruination in for extra tears. Also, look into Devilish Valet, while not a goblin, ge gets SILLY with Krenko. Then there's Molten Gatekeeper and the even better Agate Instigator as additional inexpensive mini-Purphoros'. Skullclamp is crazy in tokens with mono-red's relatively limited card draw. And lastly Sting the Glinting Dagger is another cheap way to untap Krenko up to 4x per turn cycle.
Ooh!! Those ideas are all amazing! Thanks! I especially like Sting for the untapping. I know Devilish Valet can be super strong - it always outperforms in my commander cube!
I'm surprised that almost no one mentions Sting when talking about krenko brews. It simply speaks value to me as a krenko equipment. A 2 generic legendary equipment with equip 2, that gives haste and +1/+1, gives an ability that no one cares about because who would block or attack with krenko himself, but most importantly, untaps him in EVERY combat step. Yours, your opponents, etc. Sure, protection and actual infinites may be better, but idk, I find weird no one even mentions it
Sting is definitely an amazing artifact that you can definitely run. My only qualm with it was being combat-dependent. I'd much rather be in absolute control of when I'm tapping/untapping Krenko. But you're reason is absolutely correct. If it sticks, you get 4 Krenko activations per turn.
Krenko fue mi primer comandante hace ya unos 7 años, se convirtió en mi favorito a pesar de haber armado al menos 20 otros mazos. Hoy en el proceso de tener todas las cartas en foil, tan solo fanta goblin king y algunas pocas cosas...
You could definitely run them if you wanted to. But for me, I just wanted to do things a bit differently with my build; that's my rationale. There are so many ways to play Krenko that it's overwhelming.
Curiously, Inodraptor was one of the few Jurassic Park legends that didn't call to me as a commander. It is amazing in the 99 of an enrage deck, though. I immediately got one for my Bruse + Ikra enrage deck.

I use it, it's crazy, from 2 goblins You can get 32 in a round of the table.... It's insane how fast Sting grows your army

¡Brutal! Espero que puedas conseguir las demás en foil. Ese mazo debe lucir espectactular. 🤩
Why aren’t you running Mana Echos or Kiki-Jiki Mirror Breaker?

Thought this was a spicy brew.
Sometimes you gotta have some lower levels of spice every now and again for everyone's enjoyment :P
Create a indoraptor 👀
