Anata wa watashi ga zutto mae ni "sayounara" to yutta hito wo omoidasaseru.

I know there's an audience out there because I remember talk of creating a subforum for alternate card games.

I finally gave up on trying to legalize my old U/B Control with Inkwell tanking for the finish...and found that I'm loving the new Eldrazi cards. I came up with a monogreen Eldrazi deck that is, basically, an elf-ramp into the bigger cards. There used to be a subforum for alternate card games...but it seems to have disappeared...so I'll post this here.

If it helps, I'll gladly donate 2500 to create a subforum for this.


2 Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre
4 Ulamog's Crusher

4 Kozilek's Predator
4 Skittering Invasion
4 Growth Spasm
4 Ancient Stirrings
2 Not of This World

4 Eldrazi Temple
1 Eye of Ugin
19 Forest

I play magic every great once in a while, and I agree with you, I am loving these Eldrazi.

My fave is this one:
Emrakul, The Aeons Torn
Totally wished that I owned him though... sad

I prefer Ulamog to Emrakul.

By the time you ramp yourself to 15 mana, the opponent pretty much knows what you're going for and can keep you from summoning him...though I must admit that having a Flying Spaghetti Monster on your field would be awesome.

Ulamog, even if he's countered, retains his permanent destroying effect. That's what I love about him...after that, you basically have a Darksteel Colossus on your field.

Basically, I was wondering if there was anyway to make this deck faster while keeping it standard legal.

Currently, I'm looking at spending 45 on this deck...almost $20 less than I was going to spend on my monogreen landfall deck during the last pack...so this is looking to be a good deal.

God I love how this is basically the poor man's card game.

Edit:

Replaced Arbor Elf with Birds of Paradise. Up to $60...not horrible considering the deck will dominate standard through next block.

If I were to couple it with red for, arguably, more speed. Spawning Breath would be great against other Eldrazi decks. To quote someone on the discussion page: "You wanna ramp? Birds of Paradise? No! I wanna ramp! Go away! Pew pew!"

Brood Birthing is beautiful. First turn Birds. Next turn Invader. Next Turn Brood into Hand of Emrakul.

Not hard to do at all.

I'm still probably going to go monogreen though...I'm just feeling like it will work better.

2 Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre
4 Hand of Emrakul
4 Birds of Paradise
4 Spawning Breath
4 Nest Invader
4 Kozilek's Predator
4 Brood Birthing
4 Growth Spasm
4 Ancient Stirrings
2 Not of This World

4 Eldrazi Temple
1 Eye of Ugin
15 Forest
4 Mountain

A good Elfball deck wouldn't exactly be legal anymore...though it was fun back in its day.

I have a Blue/Black control that's legal in extended.

It's rather fun to literally have the power to say "Yes" or "No" to an opponent's move.

That being said, Jace is mill...not control <.<

I don't really play that much because I have really crappy decks.

blue white control is standard legal now, with new zendikar block support.

not jace beleren, jace mindsculptor. he has a 0 loyalty effect that lets you draw 3 cards, then put any 2 back on top in any order, a -1 effect that bounces a creature, a plus 1 effect that lets u look at the top card of any deck. and a -12 that exiles the opponents entire library.

the draw 3 is used the most though, and any deck that runs blue is using at least 2 jaces right now. 70ish each.

you're definetly not using some of the better ramps making some horrible choices. Don't play the infinite gyre, Honestly i'd really rather play emerakul, if you can't do emerakul then do kozeilk even though I love him in 4's, actually -2 infinite gyres and 2 not of this world 4 kozilek *or if you really want the guy to a 2/2. Elvish archdruid>ancient stirrings. -4 nest invader, +4 awakening zone (do something that's more than once), -4 ulamog's crusher +4 Nissa's chosen. -4 eldrazi temple -1 eye of urgin + 5forest. -4 kozilek predator +4 nissa revane, -4 growth spasm +2 garruk, +2 beastmaster ascension. -4 skittering invasion +4 vengvine or +4 beastial menace.

I'm also considering on trying to find room for vengevine x4 in here. Maybe an eldrazi monument or 2.

and a -1 that lets you return a creature to it's owners hand, you know why he was so good with persecutor for grixis control razz . Hell hes good with almost anything.

Honestly if it wasn't for the recent block change and me being so unsure elspeth being reprinted or not I would be making r/w/u pw's. But atm I play polymorph and jund.

elspeth isnt going to be in magic 2011. she is getting reprinted in a duel deck this September and than rotating out.

magic 2011 is keeping the first wave of planeswalkers alive, because support cards using their names and styles were revealed.

Blue / White control is ******** expensive gonk

That's why I'm not touching Blue until July when 2011 is released.
