Aggro Eldrazis

Standard Deck Help forum

Posted on Oct. 3, 2015, 10:20 p.m. by EmoKittyKisses

A long time ago, a close friend of mine and I made a deal that if Wizards ever revisited Zendikar, he would bring back his Allies and I would bring back my Eldrazis. I'm running into a problem though when designing my deck.

I notice that a lot of the Eldrazi cards are Grixis colored (Sire of Stagnation is the only one I truely fear), and their tribe overall revolves around a control type gameplay now. I've always been most comfortable with aggro, and even when I borrow a perfectly designed control deck from a friend, it just doesn't feel right to me.

My question is: Is there a way to build the new Eldrazis outside of their intended Grixis shard so that they can be aggro and still be competitive, or are they only good for control players?

as far as aggro eldrazi's, i was looking at making an Assault Formation/Collected Company deck using Vile Aggregate, Tide Drifter, Herald of Kozilek and Benthic Infiltrator with other supporting eldrazi like Kozilek's Sentinel and Salvage Drone/Blisterpod

Ghostfire Blade. I've made a good contribution.

If you want aggro, I would go B/R with stuff like Forerunner of Slaughter, Ghostfire Blade, Kozilek's Sentinel and Vile Aggregate. I think there was an article on the Wizards page a while ago talking about it.
