+1, but I feel like there are better Eldrazi for you to use, for example, replace Ulamog's Crusher with It That Betrays .

I agree with Theone10, Entomb would be a good addition to this deck. I would recommend cutting Raven's Crime for 3 or 4 of them.

Thanks for your input. I have now put in Entomb and It That Betrays . Instead of removing Raven's Crime I chose to remove Blackmail because of the Retrace ability of Raven's Crime . Please give me more suggestions. Thanks!

One of the things that make resurrection decks so strong is they can tutor what they need for any situation right into their graveyard. Right now you are running only 3 creatures and 4 copies of two of them. It should normally just take one, and I can understand just in case having two so that if you draw one and don't have a discard you aren't screwed, I'd still suggest dropping two of each. I also don't quite see how Griselbrand fits here besides from life link. The deck should be able to set up well on the opening hand and lock opponents in place with annihilator. If you want lifelink for Red Deck Wins try Sphinx of the Steel Wind which also maintains flying along with an arsenal of other great effects beneficial for dealing with Red Deck Wins. Blood Baron of Vizkopa is another option who can get bigger, but fits less with this deck in my opinion. For other big fast creature decks Roil Elemental can be a ridiculous cheat on turn one. I'd also suggest dropping two land. You honestly have an average converted mana cost of about 2 with your most expensive spell being 3 since your creatures are just things you plan on cheating out. I understand the Eldrazi theme, but considering how resurrection decks typically run I just feel it would not be a bad idea to add more flexible options if you want this to be a competitive deck, especially since with tutors this doesn't necessarily lower your chances a lot of getting your Eldrazi out. Finally, and I'm sure you'll like this one if nothing else, you should add a Spawnsire of Ulamog for a couple of reasons. A) He's Eldrazi. B) he can be used to help cheat out numbers if your opponent uses a fast swarm strategy. C) He adds the potential for three incredible cards to your sideboard that are game breaking as well as giving you a spot to put your dropped eldrazi. You can use his annihilator combined with his abilities to help chump and manage the numbers. Another option could be Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite since most swarm decks use little guys, but whatever you prefer. Iona, Shield of Emeria is also great for locking down mono colored decks and will hurt more than any eldrazi ever would with annihilator.

Thank you dagan94! I chose to keep Griselbrand because of lifelink, as you said, and becuase it enables you to draw cards. Im big on card advantage! I've put in all the other creatures you recommended.
