For people that dont know what madness is. Its a discard mechanic. Whenever the card is discarded you have the option to cast it for it alternative Madness cost essentially negating the downside of discarding a card for cost.

@@denshitenshialso important is that madness lets you ignore timing restrictions allowing you to cast it even during your opponents turn meaning this also works as a fog if needed, or just play it opponents end of turn to then swing with all the creatures you stole

And the worst part is Ulamog is a cast trigger, so Counterspell won’t do anything… 🙃

[@tt4001_]

Stifle

[@lamjeri]

Ulamog should be a cast trigger. If you're investing 10 mana into something, it should actually affect the game and it shouldn't be completely stoppable by a 2 mana interaction.

[@tt4001_]

@@lamjeri stifle is 1 mana and anything and everything should have a way to stop

[@lamjeri]

@@tt4001_ I'd disagree. Poison was originally designed to be an irremovable win condition. Sure, you can still interact with the creatures and spells that give poison / proliferate, but once you're poisoned, you have no way of removing the counters (yes, I know about leeches). That's a very nice design imo and I don't think they should ever print a card that specifically removes counters from the spells controller as it completely kills the design. Stifle is fine, even being U, because it's a very narrow answer. Problem is when you have very generic answers that are also very cheap mana wise. Like counterspells. Then you need to design cast effects to Eldrazi. Otherwise, they'd be completely unplayable and it'd be really weird if the main baddies of the story would completely fold to a random counterspell.

[@wchenful]

Don't know why people are so worried about this new Ulamog. Sure it's a 10 drop that will win the game if you resolve it and it stays on board. But it has no built in protection to countermagic and by the time the game has progressed to 10 mana hard casting, anybody can afford to sac 2 lands and remove it with any targeted removal. Only combo decks would be concerned that their win con gets exiled.

[@-JustHuman-]

With Roaming Throne on the table it would be way worse.

[@wchenful]

@@-JustHuman- Yeah but that would require a 4 mana and 5 mana sorcery speed combo that doesn't even go infinite. By constructed standards that's practically unplayable.

[@AliceIzuragi6291]

for the record. the game has only progressed by 4 or 5 mana by the time i summon ulamog. eldrazi decks are built to have rapid mana growth. and path of annihilation as well as teh landscape land cards only made it easier to build mana fast. if im lucky. i can also get my ugin the inneffable out which reduces the cost by 2. and there are also heralds of the end and herald of kozilek who also reduce the cost of your cards

[@ChouRaiyuki]

Ulamog feels like the most consistently good eldrazi

[@Tornven2003]

Yep ulamog is absolutely the best playable Titan hence the lack of prints vs the other titans it seems.

[@AliceIzuragi6291]

i think this is saying that lore wise. ulamog may be the smallest. but they are far from the weakest

[@bughouse1521]

[@SlackerFace18]

It sounds less crazy for sure, but it's still a ton of power and draw up to 4 cards. Even stronger with some pre existing board presence

[@devincamp8274]

Kozilek has never been as good as the other two, he's always been more of a toolbelt titan, while the others focus on win conditions.

[@ema05lele20]

I don't get manifest, do they place the 2/2 on their field or on kozilek's?

[@Nightken91]

I still say that they need to make a generic card that prevents cards from being exiled and make some more cards that prevent sacrificing since we have 3 cards that do it

[@Doug464]

There's a few options that give you as a player hexproof but yeah the mass exile stuff is real nasty since there's like maybe 5 cards in all of magic's history that pull things from exile and that's usually just to your graveyard (I'm spitballing when I say 5 I don't know how many there are)

[@sedentaryscorpion]

MTG: We’ve made a mistake putting so much Ward in the game Also MTG: Sacrifice ward

[@asdf-pd1uj]

This is MUCH better and interesting than just paying more mana, I'm personally fine with ward being other costs than mana

[@jaredschroeder7555]

Agreed, nonstandard wards are interesting and more palatable than just pay a bazillion mana. This one is especially fine given it doesnt require something you may never have, like creatures on board, and so anyone can reasonably pay the ward cost unless they are well and truly fucked

[@aegisofhonor]

you forgot about the best one of them all, Herigast, Erupting Nullkite; the one people actually might play in Modern as it has Emerge and gives all your creature spells you cast Emerge. Remember, you can Evoke something out and while the Evoke is on the stack, Emerge Herigast for bonkers value.

[@jamesfilyawDigginGabe]

Love that Ulamog trigger being on cast, so unless you have a stifle, you just get to lose half your library. I usually tell people complaining about stuff like this to run more interaction, but theres genuinely almost nothing to be done about that. Powercreep isnt just annoying at this point, thats outright stupid. Lets not talk about how annoying it'll be to have to count out your whole library so you can know how many cards to exile, cause this certainly isnt getting cast early on. Only good part about any of this is that reanimating misses the cast trigger, and misses out on the bigger ulamog most likely, so its clear this really wont be a reanimate trigger. Side note, man Kozilek is lacking in comparison to past offers. Thank god tbh.

[@MadisonM1996]

The Kozilek is broken in my opinion. By the time it will hit the table, your opponent's won't have many cards in hand. You can target the two players that are most likely to combo off or remove Kozilek. They can't play their removal or combo piece if it's manifested. Unless it's a creature but then the ETBs won't trigger. So it's draw 4 and 2 opponents discard 2. Or you can target yourself with the trigger and put a lot of power on the board. The new Kozilek card has absurd flexibility.

[@jamesfilyawDigginGabe]

​@@MadisonM1996 note that it simply says that two players manifest 2 cards from their hand. Not that you get to choose. This won't shut off combos unless those 2 cards are all they have in their hand, if they don't yet have it in hand, or is creature based.

You get that on top of having a huge threat thats difficult to get rid of. Also note that im talkkng about using these in commander.

it's actually a fair point. exiling half of one's library seems insanely strong, so to balance it out you should be able to choose which cards are exiled.

[@Sky_Sovereign]

@commit7869 if wizards wanted to balance the card, they wouldn't have created that card in the first place. Plus, EVERYONE knows that if it's not specified, it's always from the top.

[@Bullet_Harmony]

We had to know at some point they would bring them back. The big 3 eldrazi. The first 3 are still the most bonkers fuckin cards in magic. The second set of three came out over the course of like 6 sets. I still think the last set of 3 Eldrazi much worse than this shit. I’m sorry ulamog the ceaseless hunger just snaps your library away in two turns. Kozilek the great distortion put 7 cards in your hand at all times and was a walking counterspell WITH MENACE. Emrakul the promised end. It was a 13/13, flying, trample, mind slaver on a creature that had protection from any instant speed removal. Also you could cast it for fucking 7 mana. I honestly think that these new Eldrazi are unpowered. Vorinclex and Sheoldred make these three new Eldrazi look weak bro.

[@davidmcfarland8491]

Reason to ban tron lands in modern?

[@AliceIzuragi6291]

he misread the emrakul. its always protected from spells. but abilities of permanents it is only protected from them for the turn its cast. and before anyone corrects me. in mtg arena, my uncle tried casting a destroy on emrakul a turn later only for him to not be able to select her.

[@MTGRecon]

Well all spells were cast "this turn," so having "protection from spells" and "protection from spells cast this turn" is the same thing. It doesn't care when Emrakul enters, it cares when the source was cast. So a Royal Assassin for example could kill Emrakul any turn after it came out.

[@AliceIzuragi6291]

@@MTGRecon of course royal assassin would work. if you read what i typed. "but abilities of permanents, it is only protected from them for the turn its cast" meaning as long as its not the turn emrakul was summoned. permanents can destroy emrakul.

[@MTGRecon]

@@AliceIzuragi6291 Emrakul can die the turn its cast, as long as the source that’s killing it was cast on a turn before.

[@AliceIzuragi6291]

@@MTGRecon no. emrakul is protected from permanents the turn emrakul is casted. but after the first turn of emrakul being on the field. it doesnt matter when the permanent was casted. its effects will work on emrakul. so i am now confused by you using royal assassin as a example. because that cards effect is a tap effect that targets tapped creatures. its far past the first turn of emrakul being on the board by the time you can use royal assassins abillity

[@MTGRecon]

The exact wording is "protection from spells and from permanents that were cast this turn," meaning Emrakul has protection from any permanent that were cast this turn. For example, an effect like Banishing Light could not target Emrakul, since the Banishing Light was cast this turn. However, if you had something like Royal Assassin that you cast a couple turns ago, if Emrakul were to become tapped (like if it entered with haste or entered tapped because of some other card) you could tap it to destroy Emrakul, even on the turn the Emrakul was played.

The eldrazi didn't die their physical manifestations got destroyed in our reality, they are so powerful they can't enter our reality in their entirety just small manifestations of themselves hence why they had to trap them in the hedrons in zendikar and emrakul in the moon in innistrad I can't remember if Ugin or Sorin said that if they truly enter our reality in their entirety we would be so screwed just the small pieces of themselves that came into our reality warped the crap out of the plains they entered so imagine how much worse it would be if they let more than just small parts of themselves to enter

[@dave_eagle2787]

The thing about the titans is that their physical manifestations were “killed” yes, but only on zendikar, and you cant exactly kill their “true form” which lives in the Blind Eternities (the body destroying cosmic soup between planes that only Planeswalkers (and the titans) can survive in). The eldrazi titans can just no longer manifest on zendikar. However, In emrkaul’s case, she’s trapped in innistrad’s moon. And like other people said, MH3 deosnt really apply to the overall magic story.
