“Eldrazi Incursion” Precon Upgrade | Modern Horizons 3 | The Command Zone 612 | MTG EDH Magic

[@commandcast]

What do you think of this precon? Any cards we missed? Any cards we suggested to take out or add that you disagree with?

[@ArtiePhillips]

I'm not sure the first trigger from Conduit of Ruin would work with the copy from Ulalek. From my understanding, the trigger would resolve once, shuffling the deck and putting a 7 drop on top. But once the 2nd trigger resolves, upon finding a second 7 drop, the forced shuffle would tuck the first drop you found back into the deck. Still a great include though, with a cost reduction of 4.

[@MFobes]

@@ArtiePhillips ^

[@alberhawkgaming8960]

You can go infinite with the echoes of eternity, Ulalek, and the Spawn Gang Lieutenant by sacrificing two of the three spawns created to keep paying for the ulalek triggers and then make infinite spawns and sacrifice them to the Lieutenant to kill everyone at the table. Also you can just one shot kill everyone with Aetherflux Reservoir by copying the ability with ulalek and echoes. Just some of the few things you can do with Ulalek :)

[@brycewilliams3993]

Will you revisit once we have prices for the set’s cards?

[@Cal-fr9mw]

Y’all had the perfect guest for this pre-con

[@enoesiw]

I did get a turn 5 win with this deck out of the box. Similar to what you mentioned in the start of the video, but i had ulalek down on turn 2 because of a sol ring into talisman start. Then i copied Glaring Fleshraker on turn 3, copied Chittering Disptcher on turn 4, then attacked with both dispatchers on turn 5. With the myriad triggers on the stack, i cast Eldritch Immunity (C eldrazi instant) that gives a target (the fleshrakers) protection from all colors and copied everything on the stack. 8 damage from spawns entering. 16 damage from dispatcher copies entering. That was 37 damage to each opponent before the 6/8/6 going at face and a pending 16 damage at the end of the turn when the 8 myriad copies left the battlefield and each left a spawn behind.

Preorder the sets you want when they first become available -from anyone but Amazon, tcgflayer, and card kingdom

[@kosche99]

The trigger from Ulalek Copies ALL spells you control on the stack, not just eldrazi ones. Whenever you cast an Eldrazi spell, you may pay {C}{C} . If you do, copy all spells you control, then copy all other activated and triggered abilities you control. You may choose new targets for the copies

[@barongeoffrey75]

So if you play an eldrazi ulalek triggers and if you play an eldrazi in response you can retrigger ulalek so you can copy both eldrazis spells and their ability twice. That is a lot of mana but can be huge.

[@kosche99]

@@barongeoffrey75 You could even flash in an Expropriate 7 {U} {U} and get copy it - if you got an Vedalken Orrery effect in play.

[@CrapsGoodxD]

​@@barongeoffrey75 wouldn't the last cast trigger only be copied once, since ulalek is added on top of it on stack once after? The second resolution of ulalek would be after resolution of the second eldrazi cast? Correct me if im wrong im noob

[@GiraffeCrab]

​@@barongeoffrey75 or go cheeper. Mash in monstrous vortex. Cats Eldrazi with power 5+ copy with ulalek ability. Discover twice. If you discover into another power 5+ Eldrazi cast for free copy the discover, it the copies everything still on the stack. As long as you can pay the two and keep discovering into power 5+ creatures you just keep copying everything on the stack. Either that or I'm playing the game wrong.

[@hunterjoverstreet]

For what it's worth, the face commander is a brood spawn that is a combo of both ulamog and kozilek's lineage and not a combination of the two titans themselves

[@coolguywithahat]

Doesn’t the booklet reference Ugins hand in a pond analogy and says what if two hands went in at the same time? Ulalek supposedly destroyed a planet/was successful and hasn’t been seen since.

[@gabspvieira]

Abaout the Conduit of Ruin, you can't stack the top of your library with two scary things unless you manage to draw the first scary thing (from the copied ability) before the other ability (original one) resolves.

Was going to comment on that. The shuffling is not optional, so it does not work, indeed.

[@kstephenson5857]

The precon does come with some card draw, most notably Garruk's Uprising. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the copy of Conduit will resolve, you put your chosen card on top of your library, and then Garruk's Uprising would trigger before your second Conduit would resolve, correct? And yeah I know that card is literally 1/98 in your deck (sans Ulalek and Conduit), but that's why I threw in as much card draw as I could into my upgraded precon

@@kstephenson5857 I'm pretty sure you're right. If the stack looks like this: Conduit spell < Conduit cast trigger < Conduit spell copy < Conduit cast trigger copy If you copied with Ulalek, then it works. Because you have a copy of the creature entering between the cast triggers. The creature entering would trigger Garruk's uprising, thus making it possible to draw the card before the original cast trigger resolves. Copying any other way that doesn't copy the body would not work with Garruk's Uprising, but having any way to draw a card at instant speed would still allow to get the card on top between the cast triggers (Prophet of Distortion, Snapping Voidcraw, Endbringer, Kozilek's Command, to name examples with the Eldrazi subtype).

[@Macwylee]

Nope, it's a fair price.

[@AruhiTheGreat]

I'm surprised they didn't mention the fact that Kozilek's unsealing 4/5/6 trigger can be used modally depending on how you stack the triggers. If you put it on the stack AFTER Ulalek's trigger, it can help you pay for the trigger when you might otherwise not be able to. If you put it on the stack BEFORE Ulalek's trigger, it generates more mana for more explosive turns by generating extra scions.

[@tomdoetsch8603]

Seeing Ashlen back for this precon episode was the best part! Her shirt, Eldrazi Game, is fantastic too 😂🤣 long live the Eldrazi Queen!

[@kstephenson5857]

I had a hard time taking out Skittering Invasion just because if you copy it (it is a tribal Eldrazi card after all), then you’re getting 10 blockers AND 10 colorless mana for only 9 mana. I also threw in every colorless cost reducer I could find (like Herald of Kozilek or It That Heralds the End), basically making it so you can duplicate your big beaters crazy fast. Also, Leyline of Anticipation, Alchemist’s Refuge, Urza’s Battlethoper all give your spells flash as well. But the best flash enabler is Skittering Cicada, which gets +X/+X and trample for the mana cost of a colorless spell you cast. As a reminder, that is a cast trigger that will be duplicated with Ulalek, so you can incidentally make your 3-drop suddenly become a 17/17 trampler.

[@miekamariehodson1731]

Chromatic orrery

[@kstephenson5857]

@@miekamariehodson1731 I keep putting that in and then taking it out. It's great, and doubles as insurance for the chromatic lantern everyone's gonna throw in there, but in the end, you really would rather have in the early game mana rocks/ramp spells that are 2-3, maybe 4 mana if you're stretching it. If you don't reduce the # of cheap ramp in order to fit Orrery into your deck, then you are trading it for interaction, card draw, or big Eldrazi payoffs, which in my limited experience is the hardest part of a deck to balance. So it keeps getting cut, as much as I keep trying to put it back in. [Oh, and the ancillary card draw it might have provided with its second ability gets squandered because only a handful of cards at most in your deck will cost colored mana and not have 'devoid.' Feels bad.]

[@arridueldes9843]

ok, hear me out, instead of Vedalken orrey, Liberator, Urza's battlethoper. It comes in at flash speed itself, and costs less, both mana and money. Granted it is a creature so interaction is easier, but still, solid surprise move. And for those who do want to run the big splashy titans, mirror box is cheap

[@mayerherskowitz]

i already put both in lol

[@mistertadakichi]

I’d argue that the titans work with Ulalek, even without Mirror Box available. Sure, you only get to keep one of the titans, but you also get a copy of any of their excellent cast triggers. The OG Kozilek and Ulamog also help you with recursion as their “shuffle graveyard into library” ability will activate even if it’s the token copy you’re putting into the graveyard

[@DancingGoat]

+1 for this suggestion. Also, the 'thopter has a cast trigger, which Ulalek can copy, which buffs the thopter when bigger spells are cast.

Yeah I got mine for $85 at my LGS. Was ticked off that they raised the price until I called 3 other LGS's, and the lowest quote among them was $115.

[@ohyea456]

Usually... that means that store won't be around long. If they aren't maximizing their profit, LGSs don't make a ton of money to stay open. If they aren't maximizing their profit, that means they are sacrificing money on each sale... which means they have to sell more than a store that does. I've played magic for 20 years and every store I've seen open that is a "cool" store that prioritizing players happiness is usually gone a couple years later. I hope it's not true for your store, but I have yet to see one last long operating that way.

Thanks for talking about this one, I have Eldrazi Unbound so ofc I bought this one too. But it's so difficult to wrap my mind around- I usually play casually and I've only been playing for 2 years off-and-on now. I really need to play this thing in a simulation so I can understand this one.

[@MProducing]

I feel like Eldrazi Displacer has a lot of value as a protection piece in being able to blink your stuff in response to your opponents trying to remove it.

[@DranzerG3]

I played against this deck since my friend had a 5 color Eldrazi deck before this and it was pretty decent then, but now my god is it strong. The stack gets so high from all the copiees that you may as well be playing a storm deck. ONE thing I have to emphasize above all else is to make sure you practice this deck with players who are masters of the stack, ideally a judge because we took a few minutes during each activation to sequence it right due to the fact that this is now a truly well supported tribal deck. So you can run all the tribal synergy cards in full force along with all the new powerful eldrazi token generators, annihilate triggers, and cards like Kindred summons. And this heavily complicates the stack. To give you an example of how op this deck can be. I swords to plowshared Ulalek the turn he came out, and my friend still almost won the game due to how strong the new eldrazi tribal synergies are now, even without the commander. Also, anyone who wants to play this commander, don't be shocked if it's removed instantly, this deck is so freaking strong with all it's mana reductions and just every other spells creates spawns and scions so you have even more mana to work with. And now that you're in 5 colors, you have every possible answer to any situation in the game

[@Staples317]

If you are running Vedalken Orrery, why not run Leyline of Anticipation in addition or instead. The purchase cost is cheaper (less than $2) and you can start the game with it on the field, and it still only costs 4 total.

Mutated Cultist is going to be a lovely surprise for my friend who plays a poison deck. It can't remove my own counters, but I can remove those from others for politics.

[@paulszki]

do not understand their dismissal of that card. So many decks use counters. Planeswalkers/superfriends, +1/+1 counter theme, anything proliferate related and sure energy decks were mentioned and yes, they're still niche, but will appear with more frequency from now on. Like, even Radiation is a thing. There's so much incidental counter stacking going on that you'll seldomlyy have no targets most importantly, it's a free eldrazi drop or even a ritual sometimes. pay 3. copy for 2 = 5 mana. You now choose TWO cards to remove counters from. Depending on the gamestate you just disrupted 1-2 players completely, you have two 1/3 deathtouchers on the board and your next colorless spell might actually be free to cast. Complete worst case it's a 1/3 deathtoucher. Or two with Ulalek out. The ceiling is: you kill any combination of planeswalkers/+1/+1 creatures/charge-counter synnergies, get two 1/3 deathtouch bodies and your next spell is like 10 colorless mana cheaper. Do. Not. Cut. This. Card.

I might be wrong but isn’t the second part of Ugin’s Binding a reflexive trigger? Ergo, when you do exile Ugin’s Binding from the graveyard after it triggers, it puts a separate ability on the stack that says “return each nonland… etc” which can be copied by Ulalek’s triggered ability (which is also a reflexive trigger) if you flash in an Eldrazi spell. 1:06:17

I've been experimenting with Zhuludok.

I've heard the thing about the titans being like hands in a pool of water i like to think ulalek is just big kozilek and ulamog holding pinkies from the Blind Eternities :)

[@LeBigsou]

I found an echoes of eternity alternate foil in the collector sample I got with the deck, talk about luck

[@Stringer207]

If you copy Conduit of Ruin’s cast trigger, will you fetch, shuffle, and then place on top. Then do that again? Thus nullifying the first fetch? Or does it basically put two fetches and they both end up on top.

[@SigmaZer0]

I have the same question so I'll leave this comment and wait for a reply. :D

[@samuelraymond7191]

Nullifying the first yeah

[@Asderios]

It's a minor price to pay for 2 instances of cost reduction

[@SigmaZer0]

@@Asderios Very true. :)

I think that the Emerge keyword ability that would help you sacrifice Eldrazi when you want

Mystic Forge for my 5 color eldrazj deck with Morophon as the commander goes hard. Not having access to a lot of draw, playing cards from the top of your library really helps, I had an eye of Ugin and was able to play like 3 or 4 eldrazis off the top for free lmao

[@usafdyes]

All in all.... i think this was a great break down of the deck and really good suggestions throughout. however, id argue keeping Eldrazi Displacer IN the deck not only for protection, but because if you add Brood Monitor, you can potentially make infinite tokens when adding Echoes of eternity, which also give you infinite mana. as well as Glaring Fleshraker causing infinite damage. so basically short story version, keep Eldrazi Displacer in the deck and add Brood Monitor to the deck.

I see more Azlask with changeling and Maskwood Nexus kind of cards

[@AlbertJanVaartjes]

First thing I thought was "5 colour Experience Counter typal!" xD

[@lokirip2372]

Echoes of Eternity is the single best addition to this deck. I don't know what they are thinking.

[@broveku]

Skittering Cicada is another good one for flashing colorless spells in

[@LH50645]

It was probably just a misspeak, but just to be clear, riot isn't a trigger it is a replacement effect

[@Zenith8924]

I didn't think I was going to enjoy this deck as much as I did since I don't really like 5c decks all that much, especially precons. But this was a ton of fun to play, and I didn't have that weird archenemy feel to it like other eldrazi decks seem to have.

Link is for graveyard overdrive, and is not valid. Got the correct deck build link?

This is such a cool build. I like the tech and will have to borrow. I am hoping to get as much deviod in there as possible.

Does Vedalken Orrery affect all your ramp artifacts when you flash them in and copy them with Ulalek?

[@rav5373]

Correction at 1:06:10 you can copy it cause Ugin's Binding has "when you do", not "if you do" however they can just Stiffle before you copy it. Plus with how the stack works you would need to flash in another Eldrazi between the triggers. That being said, this is a crazy card.

[@gabspvieira]

Doesn't the may ability goes on the stack and I decide to exile it or not when it resolves? 'Cause I can copy the triggered ability (that's still a may) and my opponet will only get to stiffle one of them. Then I may exile the card for the unstiffled one and get it to resolve either way.

[@rav5373]

@@gabspvieira Ugin's Binding has 2 triggered abilities: 1st whenever you play a big thing you may exile Ugin's Binding 2nd "WHEN you do Cyclonic Rift". There will be a 2nd trigger. So you will know if they did exile Ugin's Binding and will have a chance to respond. Plus you can respond to Ulalek's trigger and Stifle Ugin's Binding before Ulalek copies it.

[@DuxBellorum13]

Not sure if its a budget upgrade, but Skittering Abomination deserves an honorable mention as a flash enabler.
