Ultima (Lemme Suck Ya Lands)
1 month ago
Eldrazi Temple - Ramp
Hall of the Bandit Lord - Haste, great for commander and eldrazi
Emergence Zone/Winding Canyons - Flash, I notice you already have 2x flash sources as a creature, these lands can be useful, especially canyon (on RL list as well).
Miren, the Moaning Well/High Market - Sac outlet to prevent exile + theft, can also sac shuffle eldrazi in response to grave hate + lifegain. I like well more because of the lifegain, especially if you had hall of the bandit lord, this can mitigate it.
Glad you enjoyed the suggestions. You could probably cut 1-2 lands relatively easily, especially if you replaced it with draw so it could help you get more lands. That way, it can also mitigate mana flooding in the late game. Here are some more cuts...
Glasses of Urza - Not really needed too much, nice to have but nothing crazy.
Lich's Mirror - High CMC, telegraphed and you have no way to consistently abuse it
Roaming Throne - You have a decent amount of eldrazi, but because this is not a tribal deck and you have redundancy in the form of strionic resonator and lithiform engine, this is not needed.
Strip Mine > Ark of Blight
Clown Car - I don't see its purpose here, perhaps I'm missing something (commenting late at night).
Skittering Invasion - High CMC, bad ramp/blockers.
Spectrum Sentinel - Protection on a weak creature and minimal lifegain? Perhaps a meta call?
If you do end up adding more of the lands I just mentioned, then you might want to cut extraplanar lens. Lens, while potentially very powerful, can very easily be a 2 for 1. Moreover, a colorless deck's mana base is very powerful given all of the utility. I find it is usually best to have a few (10 or less) basics and lean on the utility rather than for the potential of ramping. This of course depends on how much removal the meta has, your past experiences with it (+ with the new potential changes in the deck). I know it is probably a hard cut, but definitely worth noting.
On the flip side, you do run winter moon so I presume that there is a lot of non basic lands in the meta (hence spectrum sentinel) and your commander? Winter moon would hurt you more with the more non-basics you add. It's your only "stax" card. I would say if you're going to go stax, go more into it or disregard it. I believe removing it would be best. If you still want the stax route, Winter Orb, Static Orb or even Storage Matrix can all be useful - even more so with blinkmoth well!
Alternatively, Cursed Totem is only anti-synergistic with 5 creatures of yours (can be swapped out for artifact ramp should you wish to go the cursed totem route - meta dependent).
Be sure to let me know your thoughts/thought process.

Varragoth Mono Black Creatueless Combo Win

hootsnag +1
I also run a mono black (almost) creatureless deck. May I recommend Spreading Plague for creature control or is it too high CMC? Works with fountain port to kill blue creatures. On that note, No Mercy and The Abyss are great anti-creature cards.
Imp's Mischief - "Counter" counterspells, redirect targeted removal, draw and extra turns!
What combos r u running? I see aethflux + bolas citadel + top. Rings + basalt + top. What else am I missing?
I thought The One Ring Was Banned, or am I mistaken?
Maybe add some light stax like Torpor Orb or even a Cursed Totem depending on the meta (I know it hurts you but worth noting).
You have a really low avg cmc and a large amount of tutors. You could probably remove 1 land if you wanted. Speaking of lands, while i hate Lake of the Dead, it seems like a good fit for what you wanna do.
While not an entirely serious suggestion, Voltaic Key can untap ur large mana rocks like basalt, grim, mana vault and sol ring. Moreover, it combos with everflowing (4 counters) + rings + voltaic = Infinite mana. Speaking of combos, since rings is a good part of it, having some artifact recursion such as Buried Ruin is nice to have. Moreover, while not a serious suggestion, Crucible of Worlds can go well with your sac lands. Bonus points if you add fetches. Fetches can be used with rings for ramp, shuffle your library (in case top says ur top 3 suck), and with crucible for consistent land drops. Might be a bit too slow for the deck but wanted to share it.
Speaking of recursion, Yawgmoth's Will - Super powerful.
At the risk of being too niche, Corpse Dance is fun to ensure no commander tax + built in haste.
Looking forward to your thoughts.

Azusa, Lost but Staxy

God-Pharaoh's Statue should be swapped out for a different stax piece. Perhaps a Cursed Totem or something else more appropriate for your meta? Cursed totem only effects 1-2 creatures of yours. Alternatively, your Titania in the maybeboard is a strong include IMO.
Lastly, you have phyrexian core in your maybeboard when it's already in the deck.

50 Shades of Eldrazi

At least formally, Emrakul, the Aeons Torn is not legal for EDH, so it's a strange decision. I would prefer Ulamog, the Defiler, Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger, or Zhulodok, Void Gorger as the commander, given legality issues.
Some other small thoughts:
- Field of the Dead (you can support it), Snow-Covered Wastes, Mikokoro, Center of the Sea, Strip Mine
, and Geier Reach Sanitarium are all possibly handy lands. - Memory Jar, Solemn Simulacrum, Ratchet Bomb, and Everflowing Chalice are possibly handy artifacts. Depending on the playgroup you're in, either Vexing Bauble, Chalice of the Void, and Cursed Totem could also help.

Consider more artifact stax that don't effect you, like Cursed Totem & Grafdigger's Cage!

Profet93 Eh, Cursed Totem actually is probably a hinderance to my deck but i've mainly been playing against friends who it helps against. So recently it's been a necessary evil. I'm probably going to get rid of it though in favor of an Sanctum of Ugin. Also thanks for the combo's. I dont try to rely too much on them but theyre nice to have. The main feature I like in this deck is psuedo control. Nobody can cast really but I have a good amount. Its been working well. I could also probably do better by working in colored mana but I like to stick to my gimmick of mono deck builds

Sorry for the double comment, one more card to consider given you have no creature activated abilities is Cursed Totem - Meta dependent
sergiodelrio on No sacrifice

Your best bet imho is to try and prevent activations with cards like Pithing Needle Cursed Totem Interdict Null Rod Phyrexian Revoker Sorcerous Spyglass Damping Matrix or Karn, the Great Creator
Some things will still fly under the radar tho and does not really help your Sauron I guess.
