How this commander wants to play

Ultimate Green Goblin is a self-mill engine that rewards you for discarding while generating mana through Treasure tokens. Each upkeep, you're pitching cards and making treasures, which fuels both your mana production and your graveyard. The Mayhem ability turns your discards into a second casting opportunity, letting you recast this goblin from the yard for a bargain if you've ditched it this turn. This creates a grinding, recursive engine that accelerates you while filling the graveyard with resources.

Your gameplan revolves around leveraging the discard synergies and graveyard interaction. Cards that want to be discarded (flashback, madness, reanimation targets) pair perfectly with this commander. You're not trying to race—instead, you're building value until you can either reanimate threats from your yard, cast X-spells fueled by treasures, or swing in with a resilient body that keeps coming back. The treasures double as mana ramp and sacrifice outlets, so aristocrat payoffs and graveyard recursion are your best friends.
