Legacy Eldrazi

Legacy*

Buufreak


This is just an old deck that I still have lying around. I use it from time to time for some laughs. The only reason it is legacy is for a single card: Cryptic Gateway.

Alright, so the break down goes something like this: with cryptic gateway on the field, you can tap any 2 creatures to put a creature from you hand onto the field as long as it shares a type with the 2 you tapped. That means that by turn 5, when you play the artifact, you should hopefully have a fair few smaller eldrazi and spawn tokens floating around. Since they are being tapped by an outside effect that doesn't use the tap symbol (looked it up, its legit), you can tap all the dorks the moment they enter the field. That means if you tap 2 spawn to play something like emrakul's hatcher, you tapped 2 and gained 4 creatures untapped (because all the token spawners trigger on touching the field, not being cast). Then we can tap those 4 to get another 2 from your hand.

Now, all this puts a strain on your hand. That's why damn near everything has a power of 3 or better, and Garruk's packleader triggers on touching the field as well. So the game quickly becomes tap 2, play a card, draw a card, wash, rinse, repeat. And of course, try to hard cast the bigger guys, because they require it for (some of) their cool effects.
