Commander: Emrakul, the Promised End

~~~~~~~~DESCRIPTION IS A WORK IN PROGRESS~~~~~~~~

Just brewing around with a fun, semi-competitive eldrazi deck!

I have always loved weird things, so when the Eldrazi first appeared, i was all over them! And right from the start Emrakul was my favorite out of the three. Once her first card was banned I had to disassemble the deck and just build others. But once her new card was spoiled I was thrilled and i started thinking immediately what would make a deck around her.

So please enjoy!!! I am very open to any suggestions you have!

Focusing on her first ability, you want to get as many card types in your graveyard as soon as possible. Artifact Creatures like Palladium Myr and Burnished Hart are great because they allow you to ramp ahead (something hard to do in colorless) and, in the grave, lower her casting cost by fairly early in the game. I would say that by turn 3-5 you should be able to lower her cost by , due to your graveyard, making her fairly easy to cast when you have set up the board to call her out.
Emrakul loves to mess with your opponent's minds. An optimal board state to bring her out is one with Strionic Resonator to copy her ETB ability, and Ugin's Nexus to make sure your opponents don't get their extra turns after you control them. And don't worry if they destroy the Nexus (if you play it right they shouldn't be able to save their board state after you control them) because you get an extra turn, and that's one thing you don't want to give to an Eldrazi. Simply return her to your hand via Blood Clock, Umbilicus and cast her again on your extra turn, or if you have Belbe's Portal out, use that to bring her out once more for as little as ; copy her ability with the resonator, then control up to 4 opponents on their next turns.
Colorless really doesn't have much in the category of tutoring. However, cards like Wild-Field Scarecrow, Burnished Hart, and Solemn Simulacrum can help you ramp into more mana early and Ring of Three Wishes can search for any card in your deck.

Then there are the main tutors. The ones that will call your big baddies themselves into play. Eye of Ugin is an auto include in any colorless deck, Conduit of Ruin will not only search for any big Eldrazi, but also make the first one you cast cost less.

Ugin, the Spirit Dragon isn't really a tutor, rather than they will put your Biggies on the battlefield once you ultimate.

The kite was way too slow for just searching up one land. And the relic, I found, to be better disruption and very flavorful of Eldrazi. Make it gone for good!
