I feel like you might end up with a lot of mana to use, but not enough to use it on some times. I'm counting like 17 or so non-land mana sources (or land fetches), in addition to your 42 lands. I know your big Eldrazi are, well, big - and thus expensive - but that mana is just going to sit there if you don't have one of your 16 creatures in hand. Maybe some other big bad artifact creatures or Eldrazi could help out - I like Breaker of Armies, Endbringer, and Desolation Twin, personally, but things like Void Winnower, Oblivion Sower, Eldrazi Mimic, and Conduit of Ruin might help too? And if you wanna talk artifact creatures, I've got several of my favorites here: Junkyard Party.

Having more creatures would make better use of your equipments, which, well, just kinda sit there without anything to equip them too. And with more creatures, you could make bank with Gruesome Slaughter too.

P.S. Sanctum of Ugin is a nice tutor if you play lots of big guys

The deck is tagged "Jank" because it's not quite finished yet, I was planning on picking up most of what you just suggested on thursday when i go to my LCS for EDH night.

thanks for confirming i'm looking for the right cards though :P

Ulamog the giant target on your head... :D I run ayli as my eldrazi commander why? Because with B and W I can add tutor cards and have removal... plus I can use Eldrazi displacer and other recursion spells to recur my ETB cards like thought knot seer... Ayli can also sac big drazis... gain 50+ life and as long as she is around I have a colorless, B,W removal ability. I love deceiver of form... I once triggered a deceiver of form and trigger an it that betrays for multiple annialator triggers and made my opponent scoop with those shenanigans. New players never see the drazi's coming... and with cards like rise of the dark realms and a discard outlet... you can get a lot of drazis on the board quickly. I once... poped a Liliana of the dark realms for its emblem making my swamps tap for 4 mana, put out a uborg tomb of yawgamoth making all lands swamps... I diabolical revelationed for 19.... tutored for 19 cards and discarded all of my big eldrazis into the graveyard.... the next turn I rise of the dark realms :D and a whole lot of people scooped except for two control players whom were able to cyclonic rift me and deal enough damage to end the game :D...

Eldrazi's are fun to play but in an competitive landscape people will have ways to steal and counter your big boy's. I like your deck... Follow the suggestions the other guy made....

Titan's Presence is great too(and often forgotten in colorless decks).

Any reason for Swiftfoot Boots over Lightning Greaves? Doesn't seem like the shroud would be that bad in this deck
