EleshNornsFs 45 card vintage+No Force of Will/Force of Vigor, which are the cards that keep it balanced and not insane, but still all the Griselbrand and Emrakul, the Aeons Torn style nonsense Vintage wants.

Basically more consistent, less fair Vintage.

Seems so! The only competitors here that i can find Autochthon Wurm, Emrakul, the Aeons Torn, Worldspine Wurm, and Impervious Greatwurm, and those dont quite top it

I think I'd add Leyline of the Void for gy hate. And I play a 1 of Emrakul, the Aeons Torn for the mirror. IF 8 crab blows up it'll be a must.

I just want Emrakul, the Aeons Torn unbanned. I mean, it's really not that much worse than the other Eldrazi, and certainly not as powerful as TnT.

And no, Battle of Wits is the best card in commander. Obviously.

Number 1: You are correct.

Number 2: While what you say is true, Entomb is essentially not that useful unless you have another card in hand. You're better off with Vampiric Tutor, Imperial Seal, and Grim Tutor, along with cheap one mana blue draw effects.

Number 3: Correct.

Number 4: Crop rotation is useful since it tutors for Dark Depths and puts it directly into play. But I don't think it's worth keeping green JUST for that.

Number 5: I saw VAMPIRIC Tutor in your sideboard. I meant you should mainboard it. Also, while Grim Tutor is the worst tutor of those we are considering, it's still good enough to run. It can be played on turn 1/2 with Lotus and Moxes, and while it is slower it is not TOO slow, I have one in my Dralnu deck and it works. It's also on the cheaper end with the reprint so it isn't hard to get a hold of anymore. It's also a good option since you can't use Mystical Tutor to get your combo pieces.

Number 6: The elf isn't bad, it's just that it isn't good enough for Vintage. The only creatures that tend to attack you in Vintage are enormous things your opponent has cheated into play, so the elf won't be chump blocking very much because Emrakul, the Aeons Torn and Blightsteel Colossus don't care. It's also not fast enough. Moxes all work the turn you play them and are free, and are much more helpful to playing your one mana blue draw effects quicker as well as your tutors. If you want more ramp, consider Chrome Mox and Mox Diamond. I know it SEEMS like the drawbacks hold them back but they tend to benefit much more than they hamper.

Overall, in my humble opinion as a competitive magic player, I think this deck should be just blue/black.

Bela Ged Mimicry

Tribal Enchantment - Eldrazi Aura

Enchanted creature has "Put five cards an opponent owns from exile into that player's graveyard: Untap this creature and take an additional combat step this turn. Activate this ability only at the end of each combat step on your turn."

In Bela Ged, imitation turned from flattery, to a survival tactic, to a way of life.

Scallywallwest, it goes "infinite" (Or at least until there are no more permanents on your opponents battlefield) with Emrakul, the Aeons Torn via her Annihilator 6, or if you have some other way to keep at least five cards exiled at all times.

The problem is your stipulation that it needs to be a two-card combo, but "Don't make it super easy to go off, please."

Anyway, I hope this satisfy your challenge. Next one is: something inspired by Sen Triplets. I don't care if it's a counter, a more powerful version, the lost fourth sibling.

DeinoStinkus on Price of the Eldrazi Titans

1 month ago

I was just perusing decks today and found that Emrakul, the Promised End's price was kind of low. I said, okay, what else? All of the titans prices have dropped, as far as I can tell, all of them are under $40.

Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre

Kozilek, Butcher of Truth

Emrakul, the Aeons Torn

Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger

Kozilek, the Great Distortion

Emrakul, the Promised End

Gyre has dropped from almost $50 to $32 in only a week.

Butcher has dropped a bit, from like $42 (?) to $36.

Aeons Torn has remained about the same, likely because without the audience if EDH it doesn't see the audience that the other titans enjoy.

Hunger has also dropped quite a bit, from like $45 to $39.

Distortion climbed up to $15 recently, and is now back at the price I originally bought it at ($8 something in late 2018)

Promised End has stayed about the same. It's price has lowered a little bit, but overall not too much, and certainly not as much as Gyre.

I might actually buy Gyre if this continues. Are there recent events in certain formats that might contribute to the drop? They haven't been reprinted in the past year as far as I know (the last old Eldrazi reprint was in Ultimate Masters), and I can't really see any correlation between this and the recent bannings. Any insight on the matter would be helpful.

also, if a player casts an Emrakul, the Aeons Torn with Scourge of Valkas out, they're dealing 15 less damage than if they had a Terror of the Peaks instead. It's just a way more versatile card, overall. And, I can assure you that every detail practically every card is on purpose, it isn't really fair to ask if this was a deliberate choice by WotC.
