Best 3 Colors For Eldrazi?

Standard Deck Help forum

Posted on Jan. 31, 2016, 12:20 p.m. by Crayfish

I'm making a deck with only devoid cards to really capture that eldrazi-vorthos feel. However, I'm torn on what three colors to choose.

Red provides strong aggro and burn.

Black provides spot removal, some aggro, and some control.

Blue provides strong control and some aggro.

Green provides ramp in the form of scions, some heavy hitters, and an eldrazi tutor. From Beyond

White provides... flickering. Wooo

The goal of the deck is to play small eldrazi until you can drop your heavy hitters. Pretty standard stuff. I only want 3 colors, because four color decks hurt my soul.

Thanks for your input!

I think Grixis is the most powerful three color variant, but I dont think it is the most powerful eldrazi deck you could make. The RB Variant is consistent and faster than grixis. However, I think the best variant may just be the colorless version.

I like Esper because of the hard control it has.

My deck is U/B with white splash because of the Eldrazi Displacer, but with Corrupted Crossroads it's pretty damn easy to get that 3rd color in. Do not underestimate the power of flickering; if hit on a ETB critter the ETB effect triggers.

I like naya for its infinite combo, but jund makes a really strong aggro deck . And jund Can also make a really interesting mid-game slash aristocrats deck

Green, red and blue are the best. We all know blue is annoying, green makes scions and red are the aggressors. Plus, there is a herald of kozelik in r/b eldrazi, making them cheaper
