    Re: [Deck] Turbo Eldrazi

    It's a mixed bag.

    Pros:
    It stops Wasteland
    Clouldpost comes into play untapped and still taps for a lot of mana.

    Cons:
    Kills OUR utility Lands, including Glimmerpost's trigger, Vesuva, and...

    I am curious what you're planning to play with it because that level of filtering + Cloudpost mana, you could play just about any card in the game. Deus of Calamity, Magmatic Force (or any of the...

    Well, it's not just that, but the moment that my opponent sees a Locus land, they're on the Wasteland lock plan, and they're good at it between Life from the Loam,...

    Re: [Deck] Turbo Eldrazi

    I've started testing this deck again as well. It's been doing alright, but I've got a lot more testing to do. Notable matches so far are RG Combo-lands and a fair share of four color control.

    Re: [Deck] Turbo Eldrazi

    There's also Soothsaying. It would neither be as good as Sensei's Divining Top nor a four of, but it's a mana sink that digs a lot deeper than Sensei's ever did.

    Re: [Deck] Turbo Eldrazi

    Candelabra plays great with Maze of Ith, I would advise keeping it for at least testing. You could do -1 Top or even -1 Needle. If Miracles is big in your area, you may want to do -1 Crop Rotation...

    Re: [Deck] Turbo Eldrazi

    Points worth making:

    This is clearly meant to synergize with Emrakul, the Promised End (I wonder why?/sarcasm)

    This provides a reset for a bad Sensei's Divining Top.

    At worst if they're...

    If an opponent thinks they can throw you off by Needling fetchlands, they will. Often, they will look for players that don't know that Pithing Needle is NOT a triggered ability. And yes, it can hurt...

    I would like to point out that even without Candelabra, the Cloudpost can just overwhelm the opponent because the land we keep untapping taps for 3-7 mana. Actually... it might make a great side card...

    The issue with Emrakul 2 is that it's been safety tested so players can't go infinite with it in Commander, and consequently… we can't either with Karakas. Mindslave is a beast, and with a 13/13 body...

    4 Ancient Tomb
    4 City of Traitors
    4 Cloudpost
    4 Glimmerpost
    1 Eye of Ugin
    3 Karakas
    4 Vesuva
