SB: (I Think)
4 Chain Lightning
3 Talon Oakthine
1 Sneaky Snyder
2 Hidden Trap

I added one Vorex because a) he's so good, and b) I wanted to increase the chances of my putting Vorex out before my opponent does. I figured I could start one less Sneaky Snyder. And I had a Warrior Recruiter because I happen to have one and figured it would be good in case I ran out of gas.

The sideboard was kind of thrown together at the last minute. I figured I would try Chain Lightning because Vorex can cast it on his own and it would be a possible out if my opponent drops Peacetime (assuming I got him down low on life first). The rest of the stuff was essentially for the mirror match.

I put it together before I knew how good Goblin Archers would be. I didn't realize how it can use each of its 5 actions to attack. And its loyalty is low enough that Glye can control him without worries.

So if I were to run this deck again, I would swap out the Enraged Goblins entirely for Goblin Archers and cut some other creature, like maybe a Flailing Minotaur for the last Archer.

I'm not sure what I might sideboard to increase the chances vs. a Zycon Burn or a Grimus Control deck. Thoughts?

That Chain Lightning surprise from the sideboard almost killed me Game 2. Who would have thought? Sly, sly Raoul.
