Holy Crap check this guy out

[Thranduil]

The card advantage from this guy is just incredible: 9 for 1 if he attacks! That's what I like! So yeah, he dies to removal, but even if he's countered he draws 4 cards, so you've lost 1 card and gained 4 - and a good chance (barring Path) you get a free Reminisce, so you're up 4. More to the point, with the Eye of Ugin, you can fetch him with 7, and cast him for 8. Easy, simple and awesome!

I just am really wondering what the other Eldrazi are like.

Theres a VERY strong rumour, the source says he has an uncut preview foil sheet, that a card called eldrazi temple exists. Its a land that taps for 1 colourless or taps for 2 only if used on colourless eldrazi spells. If you can pull that AND eye of ugin, youre getting him much earlier. Ive bought 4 summoning traps as well as at the moment, without more eldrazi spoilers, im gonna run him in a green deck with crazy elf mana accel for turn 4 or 5 drop.

Im super pysched for this set. Been stocking up on eye of ugin but the price has got through the roof. Was a $3 card now a $15. Managed to get 2 at $4.99 a piece and i already traded for 1 gambling it would be good. I think i was right!

LMAO in open they could Tinker him out instead of Colossus! 4 permanents isn't a joke.

I've got an idea using Tolarian Acadmey and Affinity to get this fella out quick!

Can't tinker. Read the card.

Or rather read what's NOT on the card.

Ooo oooo I know I know!

[sharkey]

Yes, you can no more tinker him out than tinker out a land (Barring artifact lands, I suppose).

[Witchkingx5]

That's what surpirised me; usually, there stands, that the spell is colorless or something like that, but it would be even more overpowered than it is now if it was an artifact....

Well I shall use Elvish Piper then. Heh I'm always looking for ways to bring creatures down cheap!

Thats what my first thought was, but having never seen a piper stay on the table for more than a phase i doubt it will ever happen. Ive invested in 4 summoning trap for that reason.
