Sideboard (1)

Key ideas:

• Tagline: Eldrazi (Lovecraftian monsters, destroying/exiling/stealing permanents)
• Massive Eldrazi, including all the Titans: our commander Kozilek, the Great Distortion, as well as Emrakul, the Promised End, Kozilek, Butcher of Truth, Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger and Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre.
• We'd like to include the last Eldrazi Titan Emrakul, the Aeons Torn, but the card is technically banned. So I like to give opponents the choice before the game. Choose three: Darksteel Colossus, Blightsteel Colossus, Emrakul, the Aeons Torn
• Heavy ramp to get these really big creatures down: Mana Crypt, Extraplanar Lens, and Forsaken Monument are the big ones. Urza's Incubator too, but it won't work for our non-Eldrazi.
• We make opponents sacrifice things with All is Dust (every colored permanent) and Annihilator abilities on creatures (see Annihilator section). It That Betrays will give us all of those sacrificed permanents!
• We exile opponents' things too - either targeted (Titan's Presence, Duplicant, Karn Liberated, Scour from Existence, Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger) or untargeted (Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger, Oblivion Sower, Bane of Bala Ged). Oblivion Sower will give us all exiled lands from a target opponent on cast - could be some good ramp! Relic of Progenitus and Scavenger Grounds help get more lands into exile too!
• Quite limited by our colorless identity regarding card draw. Mystic Forge does allow us to play cards off the top of our library. But our draw is often inefficient like Endless Atlas or Mind's Eye or for the entire table like Temple Bell. Commander gives us some card draw once we get enough mana, at least.
• Two ways to cheat out our big creatures at instant-speed, though we will lose out on Eldrazi cast triggers: Planar Bridge (tutors too!), and Quicksilver Amulet. Vedalken Orrery is another option for instant-speed creatures, but we have to pay full price.
• Strionic Resonator to duplicate Annihilator or other attack triggers, as well as Eldrazi cast triggers.
• Three powerful colorless planeswalkers to try to make this colorless deck work! Ugin, the Ineffable, Ugin, the Spirit Dragon and Karn Liberated
