The Eldrazi Incursion precon is a great start to building an Eldrazi Deck in Commander, but how to we make the MOST of Ulalek, Fused Monstrosity? And where did they come from??

Honorable mentions to the following enchantments! : Elemental Bound : Whenever a creature with power 3 or greater enters the battlefield under your control, draw a card. Up the beanstalk : When Up the Beanstalk enters the battlefield and whenever you cast a spell with mana value 5 or greater, draw a card. Emrakul's Influence : Whenever you cast an Eldrazi creature spell with mana value 7 or greater, draw two cards. Path of Annihilation: (to help gain possible mana needed while sustain life to replace the damages you deal to your self due to pain lands.) Devoid (This card has no color.) When Path of Annihilation enters the battlefield, create two 0/1 colorless Eldrazi Spawn creature tokens with "Sacrifice this creature: Add Colorless." Eldrazi you control have "Tap: Add one mana of any color." Whenever you cast a creature spell with mana value 7 or greater, you gain 4 life. For cost reduction, great choice whit Ursa incubator : Cloud Key! Last of cost reduction, recommendation will be Shadow in the warp! A 3 cost Enchantment, 1 Generic and Red/Green Shadow in the warp: The first creature spell you cast each turn costs 2 less to cast. Whenever an opponent casts their first noncreature spell each turn, Shadow in the Warp deals 2 damage to that player. It is a really great way to tax an opponent who want to get rid of your cards wile giving you the 2 mana needed for Ulalek ability!! Finally, the last is an old classic Zendikar Resurgent can be used to replace or complement the 2 monument of this deck! Zendikar Resurgent : Whenever you tap a land for mana, add one mana of any type that land produced. (The types of mana are white, blue, black, red, green, and colorless.) Whenever you cast a creature spell, draw a card. ---- On a personal note yes Roaming throne in this deck is INSANE! You also forget to mention a MASSIVE ramp card from the set! #1 :Sowing Myscospawn Devoid (This card has no color.) Kicker {1}{C} (You may pay an additional {1}{C} as you cast this spell.) When you cast this spell, search your library for a land card, put it onto the battlefield, then shuffle. When you cast this spell, if it was kicked, exile target land. #2 : Territory Culler Devoid (This card has no color.) Reach Landfall - Whenever a land enters the battlefield under your control, look at the top card of your library. If it’s a creature card, you may reveal it and put it into your hand. If you don’t put the card into your hand, you may put it into your graveyard. -------- Also, replacing one or 2 big boys with those can make it more effective depending on who you face off! Bane of Bala Ged Conduit of Ruin Deceiver of Form Endless One Reality Smasher Thought Harvester For big boy I strongly suggest : Kozilek, Butcher of Truth or Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre for the effect part : When XXXXX is put into a graveyard from anywhere, its owner shuffles their graveyard into their library.

I know this is mainly anecdotal knowledge, but Eldrazi Conscription won me game with this deck that I was sure to lose. I was playing against my friend who ran my Zhulodok deck, and right before he was able to hit me for an unblockable commander damage kill (we‘re two boardwipes into the game), I drew and cast Eldrazi conscription, copied it with ulalek, put both on him and oneshot with commander damage. Suddenly the 2/5 is a voltron commander and can retaliate like crazy. IMO that alone was cool enough for me to keep it in.

I think Animar, Soul of Elements could be a great include. If its trigger is doubled once or twice with Ulalek, you'll cast your big guys for almost nothing, having ore mana left to pump Animar and in return saving even more on casting the next one and using Ulalek.

A lot of the same thoughts I had when I looked at the deck. Ultimately, an Eldrazi deck is very strong and I opted for a different randomized approach with shuffling in Eldrazi from a stack to reduce power level. One question; how did you get $118.80 to show up on Moxfield for a deck that is over $250 out of the box? Is there a setting that only shows upgrades? EDIT: revised to cheapest and price is almost exact. Seems that whoever originally uploaded the pre-con didn't set to cheapest version for cards.

Mytocist isn’t where I’d prefer it on the curve it’s pushing right at the cut off of where I’d include ramp. Eye of Ugin and Ugin’s Labyrinth are both FINE inclusions but far from necessary - they’d be like adding Ancient Tomb into your deck. And Nulldrifter is a good include for sure.

me when roaming throne + the new kindred eldrazi enchantment + ulalek's ability = infinite card draw technically Like all you need to do is cast rishkar's expertise choose a 5 cost eldrazi pay 2 colorless mana from ulalek's trigger UH OH thats not just 2 colorless mana, make it 6 and then copy ALL spells like 18 times and draw your whole deck cause it will double once from the first one, but would also double the triggered abilities AGAIN, so it isnt just 6 ulalek's trigger would get doubled by roaming throne, which those 2 will also be doubled by the kindred eldrazi enchant so 2 ulalek after roaming throne, which would add another 4 because of the Echos of eternity, ON TOP OF DOUBLING THE TRIGGERS AGAIN so initially 1 trigger, then 2, then 4. JUST FROM ONE TRIGGER, it gets far too complex to even think but ima try to get the calcs: initial trigger first roaming throne trigger then add 2 triggers from echos of eternity. HOWEVER remember: ulalek's triggered ability states: "Whenever you cast an eldrazi spell, you may pay 2 colorless (not generic mana), if you do copy ALL spells you control, as well as all other activated and triggered abilities" remember that typically "if" in mtg means its a triggered ability, so technically (correct me if im wrong but ill calc it both ways anyway) so lets do the more complex one first: so ulalek's initial trigger + roaming throne + echoes + one more roaming throne so thats what the stack would look like, first we resolve the copied roaming throne's trigger so we pay 2 mana, which doubles our spells and activated and triggered abilities and adds 2 more ulalek triggers from roaming throne, another 3 from echoes of eternity triggering from ulalek and roaming throne. so we're already at 10 ulalek triggers 💀 and this is just from resolving 1 of the triggers, now remember this isnt duplicating ulalek's trigger, its duplicating the triggers of echoes and roaming throne, and yeah its already getting out of hand and pretty sure you wouldnt have enough mana to do this for a while, however if you do it with rishkar's expertise it allows you to continually draw cards and play free stuff so you vomit it out all onto the board, because you copy the copies cause they are cast and are on the stack no matter what. TLDR: Ulalek + Roaming throne + echoes = chaos for everyone one spell caused 4 triggers which then went to 10 real fast and that was after paying for one of ulalek's triggers with this you can draw your whole library by playing one rishkar's expertise

Could you do a video where you explain stack combo's that utilize Ulalek, reflections of littjara and echoes of eternity? I'm trying to understand the insane copying and looping that its alows to do but its melting my brain. Can this work?: On field: ulalek, reflections of littjara and 3 echoes of eternity eldrazi creature spell littjara trigger to copy creature spell ulalek trigger (pay 2 colorless) echoes #1 copy ulalek echoes #1 copy creature spell echoes #2 copy echoes #1 spell cast trigger echoes #3 copy echoes #1 spell cast trigger echoes #2 copy ulalek echoes #2 copy creature spell echoes #1 copy echoes #2 spell cast trigger echoes #3 copy echoes #2 spell cast trigger echoes #3 copy ulalek echoes #3 copy creature spell echoes #1 copy echoes #3 spell cast trigger echoes #2 copy echoes #3 spell cast trigger And am I allowed full control over where to place all these simultanious effects going off, so as to make the stack more valueable? to get something like this: eldrazi creature spell littjara trigger to copy creature spell ulalek trigger (pay 2 colorless) echoes #1 copy creature spell echoes #2 copy echoes #1 spell cast trigger echoes #3 copy echoes #1 spell cast trigger echoes #1 copy ulalek echoes #2 copy creature spell echoes #1 copy echoes #2 spell cast trigger echoes #3 copy echoes #2 spell cast trigger echoes #2 copy ulalek echoes #3 copy creature spell echoes #1 copy echoes #3 spell cast trigger echoes #2 copy echoes #3 spell cast trigger echoes #3 copy ulalek This is one run without even resolving an echoes copy of ulalek to double everything, thats what makes me super confused. How would the stack continue to look like once an echo copy of ulalek gets payed and resolved, and so on. Would love a video about it from someone who is experienced, I just started mtg 2 weeks ago and trying my best to fully grasp it so I don't make illegal or suboptimal plays. My brain hurts, But I love it 😅

There are some nuances that are missed - for instance the Echoes trigger doubler is not itself a trigger, it's a static ability. Meaning as soon as Ulalek's trigger goes on the stack so do all the copies. All the copies need to be paid for individually to prevent infinite stacks like what you've implied in your example!
@CrapsGoodxD
@CrapsGoodxD 3 ай бұрын
@@CommanderMechanic every echoes resolution of ulalek needs to be paid you mean? And if the first line is static the second is surely a trigger, which can be copied? and also when a copied ulalek resolves does it not copy this other ulalek trigger, since it sees it as another instance of a trigger and not himself? Can multiple echoes of eternity also not double the copying of a spell cast trigger (second effect) from the other copy of echoes of eternity as implied above (since it also changes the outcome of another noncolered permanent, which should be the other copies of echoes)

Like, would the amount of Eldrazi Spawns and Scions I’d have double? 3: would it make copies of previously made copies?

to hold priority is to respond to your own spell before opponents have a chance to. When you cast a spell normally each opponent gets a chance to respond and if they don't your spell immediately resolves. To hold priority is to ensure you get a chance to do something with an existing spell or ability on the stack before it resolves or checking to see if opponents let it resolve.

That's not the lore of Ulalek at all. If you read the insert that comes with the deck (that's also on Ulalek's wiki) "Ulalek is what happens when two Eldrazi titans dip into a plane at the same location from the Blind Eternities. An amalgamation of Ulamog and Kozilek lineages, Ulalek's presence amplifies both the innate tendencies of Ulamog spawn to warp physical properties and Kozilek spawn to warp reality.[2] Its influence on a plane is constantly shifting as if the substance of its being is constantly in flux. Ulalek has only ever appeared once, on a plane that has long since been reduced to a drained husk and whose name has faded from memory.[1] Since then, it is unknown if Ulalek as a being still exists, or if it came apart once the aspects of Ulamog and Kozilek that made it up withdrew back into the Blind Eternities."

​@@CommanderMechanic good morning, I've been playing Eldrazi Incursion recently and I didn't understand this well either: at minute 1.45 you say that it's possible to cast an Eldrazi spell and keep priority on Ulalek's trigger to cast an instant and then allow Ulalek's trigger to position itself and solve it first and thus copy the whole stack. Did I misunderstand? Could you tell me where I find this rule because I tried to read about priorities but I didn't find anything thanks

If I understand correctly, by casting echoes of eternity and paying the 2 colorless I get a copy of it ?

He's probably talking about the foil etched display commander that's made with too thick of cardstock to include in your 99. 🥴

I'd like to try these combos out, if only the deck I ordered would arrive after 3 weeks of being late already.

Your list needs more ramp and ways to cheat out expensive eldrazi. Why no natures lore or cultivate?
