Glaring Fleshraker

Creature — Eldrazi Drone

Whenever you cast a colorless spell, create a 0/1 colourless Eldrazi Spawn creature token with "Sacrifice this creature: Add ."

Whenever another colourless creature enters the battlefield under your control, Glaring Fleshraker deals 1 damage to each opponent.

Sliverguy420 such as? I've been out of MTG for awhile so i'm not caught up to speed. But based on some Top8 lists i've seen: I hate Karn, the Great Creator. Devourer of Destiny is interesting i'll admit, as is Glaring Fleshraker. I should get my hands on some Ugin's Labyrinth and Sire of Seven Deaths.

Balaam__ Blisterpod maybe?

I haven't played Modern in a long time but maybe some Eldrazi spawns/scions effects for more Glaring Fleshraker triggers?

My first thought is that it looks too much like you’re doing two things here, and you need to pick a lane. Tron decks either only do ramping/assembling-tron early, and then win with their impactful large-mana cards, OR the deck sticks relatively low to the ground, gaining potential speed from assembling tron, but primarily just trying to be aggressive and win the game fast.

By trying to enact both parts of that plan I think you’ll struggle to do either - so personally i’d first suggest picking a lane, and ditching the other half of the cards that don’t help you achieve that.

Here’s some very-loose examples of what i’m getting at. I’ve tried to mostly use cards already in your current list:

Option 1, Ramp Eldrazi Tron

Option 2, Aggressive Eldrazi Tron

It feels like on an ultra budget, the first ramp option is going to be more viable - its hard to find decent low-money cards for option 2.

The playtesting went well, but I noticed that its a bit slow. the main reason my version became so expensive is because I was trying to make it go as fast as possible in the hopes that the combo gets onto the battlefield before they manage to establish enough mana to actually deal with it.

I definitely see the vision with Glaring Fleshraker, but I personally don't like it. there's nothing wrong with it, but I don't really like relying on having ANOTHER creature out before the combo starts. it just pushes the combo win a turn later rather than just getting infinite mana and using Walking Ballista or Goldvein Hydra.

if you are set on going the fleshraker route, I would 100% recommend Arbor Elf. it seems super circumstantial, but it comes together much more often than I initially thought it would, and even when it doesn't, you still have a creature that either acts as a mana dork or eats a removal spell to clear the way for the combo.

I printed out my version and played it against Izzet Murktide and it went 2-0 (haven't tried post MH3 decks though...) the second game was super close, relying on 2 topdecks, but it was only that way because of the insane number of counterspells I drew. I'm soon going to try to test it against more meta decks, so I'll say how it goes :)

No worries for the essay hahaha. I appreciate all of the suggestions and insight. I'm considering Arbor Elf since you've mentioned it. I've built so many variants of this combo already. I have a selesnya build that is using Rosie Cotton of South Lane but I haven't tested it.

As for Endless One and Stonecoil Serpent those are mainly enablers for Glaring Fleshraker. I'm focusing on fleshraker as the main plan/backup plan in conjunction with the Blade of the Bloodchief to hopefully act as a "fair" game plan, while I wait to get off the main combo of the deck. Being able to tutor/dig for the blade with Ancient Stirrings, Urza's Saga, and Malevolent Rumble really appeals to me. That and saga allows me to make something to trigger fleshraker again too.

But your build is quite different then mine and has my mind going in all different directions again! hahaha I love it.

I have a bit of a commander background so I'm honestly looking at Arboreal Grazer and Utopia Sprawl simply as ramp for the deck, but the Arbor Elf really could be a consideration in place of maybe the grazer. I like the grazer because it just needs you to have a forest and another land in hand which is relatively easy. Utopia sprawl, a forest, and arbor elf seems more like waiting for stars to align. That said I haven't played it yet to know how sequencing and everything really plays out in this deck. I'm printing up some proxies now to find out!

Howd your play testing go anyways?

When you say "token", it's not clear whether you mean the token copies of Glaring Fleshraker and Propagator Drone that are created by Ulalek, Fused Atrocity's trigger or you mean the Eldrazi Spawn tokens created by Fleshraker's trigger.

This is what you do to maximize the total copies of both Fleshraker and Drone, assuming you want more Fleshrakers:
1. Cast Fleshraker. Ulalek's ability triggers
2. Pay for Ulalek's trigger. You get a copy of the Fleshraker spell
3. Before the copy of the Fleshraker spell starts resolving, respond by casting Drone. Ulalek's ability triggers
4. Pay for Ulalek's trigger. You get a copy of the original Fleshraker spell, the copy of the Fleshraker spell and the Drone spell
5. After everything resolves, you end up with 2 total Drones and 3 total Fleshrakers

Fleshraker does not trigger in this example because it was not on the battlefield while any spells were being cast. If you want some Spawn from the Drone casting, you'll need to let one or both of the Fleshrakers resolve first before casting Drone.

This is what you do to maximize the number of Eldrazi Spawn tokens made from Fleshraker's trigger:
1. Cast Fleshraker. Ulalek's ability triggers
2. Pay for Ulalek's trigger. You get a copy of the Fleshraker spell. Let them both resolve
3. Cast Drone. Ulalek triggers and both Fleshrakers trigger. Order the triggers with Ulalek's on top so it will start resolving first
4. Pay for Ulalek's trigger. You get a copy of the Drone spell and a copy of both Fleshraker triggers
5. After everything resolves, you get the original Drone, a copy of the Drone and a total of 4 Eldrazi Spawn tokens

Note that creating a copy of the Drone spell does not trigger Fleshraker again because the copy isn't being "cast", it's just being created directly on the stack.

How this works:

  1. You cast Glaring Fleshraker, this doesn’t make you any eldrazi tokens because its not yet on the battlefield yet

  2. While Glaring Fleshraker is still on the stack, you cast Propagator Drone. As Glaring Fleshraker is still on the stack and not in play, you still create no eldrazi tokens.

  3. While both those creatures are on the stack, you pay the ability for Ulalek, Fused Atrocity. You end up with no tokens (as none were made), but a copy of each of those two creatures.

If you’re wanting to create eldrazi tokens from Glaring Fleshraker, it needs to be in play. In which case, the following would happen:

  1. You cast Glaring Fleshraker, this doesn’t make you any eldrazi tokens because its not yet on the battlefield yet. But you let it resolve and enter play.

  2. You cast Propagator Drone. As Glaring Fleshraker is on the battlefield, a trigger is made to create an eldrazi token.

  3. While both the Propagator Drone and eldrazi-token-creating ability are on the stack, you pay the ability for Ulalek, Fused Atrocity. You end up with two tokens (you only copy the ability, the extra Propagator Drone isn’t cast so doesn’t make more), and a copy of Propagator Drone.

I am having difficulty setting up the stack in this scenario. How many tokens are created and whether if I pay Ulalek, Fused Atrocity ability its copied as though it has been paid for 2 total. So, I have Ulalek, Fused Atrocity and Leyline of Anticipation with enough mana to cast the next 2 Eldrazi spells. I proceed to cast Glaring Fleshraker and Propagator Drone both at instant speed due to layline. My guess is this is what happens as far as the stack is concerned.

cast Glaring Fleshraker

Trigger Ulalek, Fused Atrocity

Cast [[Propagator Drone]

Trigger Ulalek, Fused Atrocity paying this one

The way I think it works is this.

casted Glaring Fleshraker 1 token

Trigger Ulalek, Fused Atrocity

Casted Propagator Drone 1 Token

Copied Trigger Ulalek, Fused Atrocity *paying this one

Then

casted Glaring Fleshraker 2 tokens

Trigger Ulalek, Fused Atrocity *not paying

Casted Propagator Drone 2 Tokens

Copied Copied Trigger Ulalek, Fused Atrocity

So I end up with 3 total Propagator Drones and 3 total Glaring Fleshrakers. Is my thinking correct?
