Sideboard


Eldrazi-processor deck based on the new brew that has arisen. Artifacts are exiling cards, the eldrazi will then process them for effects.

Overall shell is more of a control variant. It is primary made from cards from my collection, and I am pretty sure there are better options available if one is willing to spend money.

==== Discard & Destroy ====

Duress is the basic spell based discard card. You can glean information from it and force to discard certain key spells. Enchantments or control spells are primary targets for this.

Disfigure. A one mana spell that can kill many weaker targets or weaken them enough for other cards to finish them.

Dismember. -5/-5 for 1 colorless mana, usually. Flexible cost makes this one rather great.

Doom Blade. Kills a lot of big targets the -x/-x spells can't finish.

Spatial Contortion . Suprisingly flexible. It can be used to kill a decent amount of targets or buff up the bigger Eldrazi. Also, it is colorless.

Warping Wail . The Eldrazi Charm. The deck has a lot of -x/-x effects so it can Exile surprisingly often, Countering sorceries is always helpful, and finally making a Scion can turn the tides, sespecially with Drowner of Hope around.

Wasteland Strangler. -3/-3 on a body. It gets the job done. It does need an exile card before it can act though, but sometimes it can be dropped when you need the body. Remember that he is colorless for protection.

==== Counters ====

Delay. This is basically counterspell with a Processor around, if not it can stop the spell for a long time. Interestingly, if you Delay a kill spell and you don't have targets for it anymore, the opponent needs to kill of one of his own creatures.

Ulamog's Nullifier Needs exiled cards, but can counter targets. It flies, so it can also beat down enemies.

==== Exile ====

Relic of Progenitus. Exiles a bunch of cards, and can fully exile graveyards. Great to use in responses.

Scrabbling Claws . Weaker relic, but it gets the job done. Use those for card draw often.

Nihil Spellbomb. Graveyard sweep and card draw at instant speed. Cheaper to use in response to graveyard tactics than the other ones.

Bojuka Bog Like spellbomb and Relic, another graveyard sweep, but this one uses a Land slot.

Dimensional Infiltrator . This guy is a 2/1 Flash Flyer, which is amazing, and for rather cheap it can eat the top cards of opponents decks, especially after scrying. If you are lucky, it can also be used to avoid removal or empty air blocks, but don't bank on it. Use it mainly to feed Processors.

==== Creatures ====

Blight Herder. One of the better processors, and helps us to go wide if nescessary. Scions can be used as chump, attackers, or ramp when nescessary.

Drowner of Hope One of the Finishers. Drowner can tap blockers using Scions or prevent nasty attackers.

Deepfathom Skulker. Can make finishers unblockable and refills the hand. Very useful with a big Endless One or Kozilek.

Endless One Can get as big as you need it to be, especially with the Temples. Use as a finisher or as an early drop depending on the game.

Kozilek, the Great Distortion. The Big man himself. Finisher as big as they come, and can protect himself with the Discard-counter ability. Drowner of Hope can tap a single blocker so he can Menance through, or Deepfathom Skulker can make him unblockable.

Only reason I have this guy is because I pulled hm from a booster.

==== Utility ====

Gitaxian Probe. Excellent card draw.

==== Lands ====

Eldrazi Temple The bread & butter Eldrazi land. I doubt it needs explanation.

Swamp Swamps are swamps.

Island Islands are islands.

Darkslick Shores Gives black or blue mana, and comes in untapped early game, where we need it.

Crumbling Vestige Like Darkslick Shores, it does provide us with colored mana in the earlygame, but can provide Colorless mana later.

Ghost Quarter. Get rid of some pesky lands such as Tron. Very valuable.

Shrine of the Forsaken Gods On good days this is Eldrazi Temple 5. Not magnificent, but it does the job.

Thespian's Stage Can copy either Eldrazi Temples or enemy utility lands.

Duskmantle, House of Shadow Mills enemies so their cards can be eaten by the graveyard exiling artifacts.

Tomb of the Spirit Dragon This card is bonkers. All our creatures are Colorless, as are the Scions we make. Gaining 4-5 life with each use can put us out of reach from agressive decks or burn.

==== Sideboard Choices ====

Ruin Processor Lifegain and 7/8 in case of angry goblins or fire.

Dark Betrayal Doom Blade is useless against monoblack. This one isn't.

Annul Enchantment/Artifacts run rampant in my meta, so having an answer for those is almost nescessary

Flaying Tendrils Table sweeper in case of aggro. Caution to not swipe your own scions.

Suggestions are of course welcome!

I swapped the finishes with Coax from the Blind Eternities. Should be fun and make the deck more flexible.
