[Non-EDH Article] Horde Magic: A New Way to Play Magic and Survive Zombie Invasions

[Aggro_zombies]

The more I think about a Horde mode based on Eldrazi, the less I like it. Scions being only 1/1s is rough, and there isn't anywhere close to the same depth to this tribe as Zombies get.

There isn't anywhere close to the same depth to this tribe as Zombies get.

I do not disagree, but there are the 10/10 tokens as well.

Brood Monitor
Broodwarden
Eldrazi Monument
Hand of Emrakul
All is Dust
Artisan of Kozilek
Bane of Bala Ged
Breaker of Armies
Desolation Twin
Eldrazi Devastator
It That Betrays
Pathrazer of Ulamog
Ruination Guide
Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger
Ulamog's Crusher
Void Winnower

There is definitely a selection of cards out there. That's just a snapshot of includables. There are probably a bunch of interesting artifacts that would work with the tribe. The brutality of Annihilator may make up for the puniness of the 1/1 scion tokens... It might be too good though. There are certainly easier tribes to work with than Eldrazi (Goblin Horde?)

Eldrazi Horde seems to he hard to balance and I've found annihilator hard to balance. I'm currently working with INGEST as the mechanic that affects all players, but getting 80-90 cards ingested in an average horde game (7-9 turns) seems to require some Magic....
