Actually, now I'm really tempted to make something like this work.... Although it might lean more towards G/B with a more gindy feel with discard and goos creature removal or Naya prison style with a bunch of wraiths/moons/ect...

In my advice, you should cut some eldrazi to put some shapeshifter, as Shapesharer, Woodland Changeling, Amoeboid Changeling or Mothdust Changeling

SCInsainty, i just want this to work, so if you can think of a black green way to do it then sure, cause i only went with blue to try get scry to make the eldrazi sit on top to make the combo work.

Dusk, does this work a little better? i tried to cut the eldrazi to 3 each so i get them mainly instead of changelings from the combo

I think Polymorph would fit this deck perfectly (obv when using on your own creature after you have scried eldrazi to be the top card).

It's curious how did you choose Amoeboid Changeling over Shapesharer. Is it a choice of budget? I would like to point out that the latter can become itself an eldrazi for only 3 mana, so it's a lot better. When playtesting, I also feel like Sigiled Starfish is unneeded, you already have 4 Mystic Speculation and I'll go also for 4 Augury Owl. Fated Infatuation could be still good to copy the Augury Owl, but once you have 3 mana I'll use them to play Mystic Speculation with buyback. Maybe you have too many forests? The mana base still seems to be fixed.

I agree, you should play Polymorph. I will try -4 Sigiled Starfish +1 Augury Owl + 3 Polymorph and see how it goes.

Call to the Kindred is another good option

Dusk what are you talking about "become itself an eldrazi" when they both are already changelings, thus eldrazis by default.

Luutamo I mean that Shapesharer can become the copy of an Eldrazi creature already in play. Imagine to play Shapesharer on turn 2, Descendants' Path on turn 3, turn 4 you cast an eldrazi for free and tap three mana to have Shapesharer become a copy of it until the next turn.

Oh yeah, my bad. Read the ability so wrong :D Shapesharer is definitely a better choise as long as you are not using legendary eldrazi, what he isn't :)

Thanks guys, i took your suggestions and shoved it in. There was a mild budget, but this isnt hurting it too bad. is it looking any better?

i play tested it multiple times and i seemed to be getting turn 5 eldrazi's a lot, so i assume its working decently

Lands are still to be fixed, imo. As it is right now, it seems that you are not able to play consistently Fated Infatuation. For playtesting, I made a copy of this deck and I run only 2 copies of Mutavault (it's less necessary with your polimorphs) and less forests.

good point. ill make cuts now

I would personally still change 1 Polymorph to Call to the Kindred. Other than that, looks pretty good to me :) (Though, I play mostly caual so I don't know if my opinion should have that much of a weight in this ;D )

+1!

Don't you need to be running 4x Mutavault for your combo, instead of 1?

would it be better to take out the three quicksilver amulets and replace them w coursers of kruphix? it would make sure you always hit your land drop while also filtering your deck faster
