@Colgate: I run the eldrazi because of nostalgia. I started playing during Worldwake so Rise of the Eldrazi was the first deck to come out after I started. Being a new player at the time, giant creatures intrigued me. That and they have always been part of the deck and I don't handle change that well.

Has Silent Arbiter been suggested yet? Since you mainly run creatures that are going to win in 1-2 hits with the Eldrazi Titans or stall out till you hit Karn. It helps stall your opponents creatures while providing more time for your finishers to hit the field. With it and lodestone golem you should always have the time you need.

@mymanpotsandpans: That is very intriguing. I will give it some thought. Thanks for the suggestion.

Oblivion Stone ? Blow up the board and keep stuff too. Relic of Progenitus could be helpful against decks with graveyards, and you can draw a card off it. Looks great. GOOD LUCK!

I would take out 1 or 2 Brittle Effigy for some more Oblivion Stone , All Is Dust , or Relic of Progenitus .

Vesuva ?

@OpenFire: I had it in here for a while but I removed it for Thespian's Stage . I runs better with it because of changeability.

At 6/12/11, would you have expected this deck getting this high in the rankings and in the state that it is in now?

Love this deck!

This deck has been THE DECK that I dream of building when I switch from Standard to Modern. I tried it in Playtest and it doesn't seem to be fast enough though. I have no experience with Modern, but from what I've seen and been told, games seem to end around turn 3 or 4. The fastest I was able to get an Eldrazi out was turn 6 on the first Playtest, but the next 2 tries were about turn 9 or 10 and I just can't see games lasting that long.

Unless I'm completely wrong about how fast Modern really is, how does this deck survive?

P.S. I think the description would be a lot better if you removed all the "edits" and just put in the descriptions of the cards that are currently being used in the sideboard / mainboard. I can't really tell if the deck being shown is the correct deck or is missing cards.

Put in Darksteel Citadel instead of Tectonic Edge . Take indestructible over destroying non-basic lands; most people use few non-basic lands anyway.

Great deck, almost at 600. +1

This might be a stupid question, but if Urza's Mine or a card similar to it is summoned, wouldn't you have to wait till next turn to use its tap ability due to summoning sickness or does that only apply to creatures ?

Creatures only.

@alexg268, that only accounts for creatures. That being said, Dryad Arbor can't tap for mana because it is a creature, even though it is a land.

If you have a lot of Eldrazi cards, you should try out Spawnsire of Ulamog .

@ Zaane2 If you wanna play this archetype in modern just run the R/G tron it's a lot faster and more competitive

@meke , could you link me to that deck? I'm not very familiar with Modern so I don't really know what tron is.

@meke

http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/20-06-14-tron-green/ This is a pretty basic build.

What about running Eldrazi Conscription for your Etched Champion (s)?

That would make for some great luhls.

@Caligula: what should I replace with it? I was thinking of dropping 1 Lodestone Golem and something else. What else do you think?

I was thinking you could drop 1 Spellskite as well seeing as 4 could be a little redundant and take away from firepower

and a Lodestone Golem or a Walking Atlas //Tectonic Edge

Have you considered Spawnsire of Ulamog ?

Done. Thanks.

In my opinion, spawnsire doesn't do enough. Thanks for the suggestion though.
