The ability to force an opponent to attack is actually underrated. It’s certainly very important in Limited. At one time, I considered that Boros Aggro could play a singleton of the Diplomats to force opponents to run into their Boros Reckoners or first-strike Ash Zealots, but that dream never came true. That being said, he wasn’t a bad card in Magic 2014 Limited (which was a brutal format, in my experience). He just is a bit weak for Constructed play, as he’s not as aggressive as you want a Goblin to be. However, in Commander, it’s a different story. Causing chaos on the board is some thing red players love doing in Commander. Forcing an opponent to make their creatures attack is pretty mean. It can cause a lot of drama in a multiplayer game. Goblin Tribal decks often can find room for this guy, and he was an auto-include in my Krenko, Mob Boss deck. That is the Commander deck in which the Diplomats see the most play. He also happened to be the rare Top 8 foil promo for Magic 2014 Game Day… oh, how exciting! ![]() Oh, don’t they look precious!? Actually, this is a promo that fetches a few dollars online, believe it or not. Hive Stirrings was the promo that everyone got. Despite how cool that card looks, neither that or Diplomats wasn’t enough of a reason to come out for a Game Day tournament. To be fair, the best part about that Game Day was the Chandra, Pyromaster Champion play-mat! That being said, Goblin Diplomats a good enough card for Commander that picking up a promo isn’t a terrible idea for the binder or Commander toolbox.
