The Eldrazi are really nice, but they're to be treated as a premium as they're mostly a win condition that everyone's worried about. Putting them out on T5-7 is ridiculous. I've had games where I had T5 Kozilek, Butcher of Truth and T6 Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre .

Karn, Silver Golem has some synergies with his ability, making him a strong utility creature capable of animating expensive artifacts such as Darksteel Forge and Akroma's Memorial for attacks and defense. He can also function as land destruction paired with Mycosynth Lattice .

Also, All Is Dust is pretty fun with It That Betrays .

Mana ramp is important. You're going to want to try and exploit some infinite mana combos like Voltaic Construct + any mana rock producing 3 (i.e. Thran Dynamo , Gilded Lotus , etc.) or untapped Basalt Monolith + Rings of Brighthearth .

Fetching is key, Eye of Ugin is by far your best. There are some more artifacts, but Eye is great.

Perilous Vault , Oblivion Stone , All Is Dust , etc. are important if you want to keep boards clear.

Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre seems like the best choice to me.

With things like Eye of Ugin and artifact ramp, you can pop him out so quick that you shut someone out of the game.

Throw him out after an All Is Dust and force them to sacrifice lands and the game is over.

HeroInMyOwnMind all is dust doesnt hit lands, lands are not colored permanents.

But yeah, Ulamog is probably the best choice. Kozilek os super awesome, but a little harder to get off.

Nah, but if you All Is Dust then swing with Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre , they have to give up 4 of their remaining permanents. Typically all they would have left is land.
