I like Eldrazi in commander, because they're so open abut the fact that They Are The Problem. So many decks pull the 'Just A Little Guy' card whenever you start calling them out as a threat, saying that they only get going with the rest of a combo, or that the deck isn't actually doing anything while you can blatantly see them building the Death Star on the field. Eldrazi have none of this. The moment an Eldrazi hits the board having cost dozens of mana with an effect that says 'Every other player punches each other in the face until someone bleeds on their playmat', everyone knows who the problem is, and nobody can deny it.

Our resident eldrazi player wonders why we are always attacking them early bc they just have “little guys”. The other three decks they play consistently are two voltron decks and yuriko. Only one of those has “little guys” and they have burned the whole table for 14 dmg(42total) in a turn.

Fun Fact: Ulalek + Roaming Throne lets you double both Ulalek's effect and the effect of any Eldrazi copied by him. For example, If you cast Flayer of Loyalties and pay the additional cost, the Roaming Throne double trigger is still on the stack when the Ulalek trigger resolves and so that double becomes a quadruple, and Throne doubles the Ulalek double. Ultimately, you pay 12 mana to take control over 8 enemy creatures, turn them into 10/10 haste creatures with Annihilator 2. Basically, you are either winning the game, or are doing an orbital nuclear strike on a single opponent (annihilator 16 + 80 damage) who is likely going to jump you outside the LGS.

If the triggered ability is "When cast, you may pay. If you do..." wouldn't the Roaming Throne's copy of that ability triggering also have to be paid into independently?

So many magic players don't understand the stack. "No, that eldrazi without flash will not make a copy of that other creature you just cast, it has already resolved and is on the battlefield. Oh my god no, you can't respond to the ETB of that other creature by casting that eldrazi, again, it doesn't have flash, you have to play it at sorcery speed. NO, YOU CAN'T......" You get the idea.

@laytonjr6601 Zhulodok isn't specifically an eldrazi tribal commander. They are more "big colorless creatures," which, of course, includes many Eldrazi, but is not specific to them in the way that Ulalek is. Many Zhulodok decks don't quite have enough eldrazi to be considered tribal (25+) because there are various artifact and other colorless creatures in there that better serve the big mana strategy Zhulodok leans more into. This is why I chose the specific wording of "real tribal leader." Though I guess that wording was more ambiguous than intended. More accurately, I should say that Ulalek is the first dedicated tribal leader for eldrazi.

The thing about Ulalek, he needs flash to do what he wants to do, you need flash on your eldrazi to copy other spells, cuz you need them on the stack first otherwise they resolve before Ulaleks ability, and you can’t cast eldrazi while other spells are on the stack, the other thing is if you get the flash the copies are exponential, as you control the copies, so what you do is you gain flash (there was like 10 or 11 cards to give eldrazi flash) you cast a spell, you interrupt it by casting an eldrazi, Ulalek triggers, you interrupt by casting a second eldrazi, you now pay for his ability, witch copies his other trigger, and loop until you run out of mana.

If you flash in an eldrazi while SR is on the stack, you copy SR. However, it would be easier, and dirtier to cast Energy Tap in response to casting your Eldrazi, get Ulaklek's ability resolved after the spell is on the stack, now you got two copies of ET to fire off, which means you're going to be able to cast another eldrazi and trigger the ability again almost assuredly.

I like Eldrazi in commander, because they're so open abut the fact that They Are The Problem. So many decks pull the 'Just A Little Guy' card whenever you start calling them out as a threat, saying that they only get going with the rest of a combo, or that the deck isn't actually doing anything while you can blatantly see them building the Death Star on the field. Eldrazi have none of this. The moment an Eldrazi hits the board having cost dozens of mana with an effect that says 'Every other player punches each other in the face until someone bleeds on their playmat', everyone knows who the problem is, and nobody can deny it.

Would that multiply your goblins by ten or 1024?
Fun Fact: Ulalek + Roaming Throne lets you double both Ulalek's effect and the effect of any Eldrazi copied by him. For example, If you cast Flayer of Loyalties and pay the additional cost, the Roaming Throne double trigger is still on the stack when the Ulalek trigger resolves and so that double becomes a quadruple, and Throne doubles the Ulalek double. Ultimately, you pay 12 mana to take control over 8 enemy creatures, turn them into 10/10 haste creatures with Annihilator 2. Basically, you are either winning the game, or are doing an orbital nuclear strike on a single opponent (annihilator 16 + 80 damage) who is likely going to jump you outside the LGS.

Oh my god no, you can't respond to the ETB of that other creature by casting that eldrazi, again, it doesn't have flash, you have to play it at sorcery speed. NO, YOU CAN'T......" You get the idea.

@laytonjr6601 Zhulodok isn't specifically an eldrazi tribal commander. They are more "big colorless creatures," which, of course, includes many Eldrazi, but is not specific to them in the way that Ulalek is. Many Zhulodok decks don't quite have enough eldrazi to be considered tribal (25+) because there are various artifact and other colorless creatures in there that better serve the big mana strategy Zhulodok leans more into. This is why I chose the specific wording of "real tribal leader." Though I guess that wording was more ambiguous than intended. More accurately, I should say that Ulalek is the first dedicated tribal leader for eldrazi.

I will say, I really love how this is worded. Without setup, this is simply CC to copy a creature only while it's being cast. With proper planning and knowledge of the stack, this becomes increasingly abusable. Ulalek will get a lot of mileage out of cascade and flash, and there absolutely has to be ways of comboing with colorless mana generation effects.
Never gave into simic before but had to here. Built him as ulalek , "confused" atrocity. Just a simic build with a slight group hug subtheme that goes about making a jenga tower out of the stack. Once you get two flashed out eldrazi on there and start exponentially copying triggers, all hells loose

You know even Eldrazi don’t have as many offers and conditions as Davriel, Soul Broker
I was wondering what the lore was behind this but staring at the art for 30 seconds trying to discern which brood it was then checking the name again it finally clicked that this is a fusion of [Ula]mog and Kozi[lek], and that's why it had the traits of both. Bisecting arms, tentacles, and a faceless bone mask from Ulamog. Some sort of carapace, eyes on it's joints, and those floating plates around the head from Kozilek.

As someone who no longer plays but was playing when the zendikar block came out, it's funny seeing Eldrazi are still the crazy menaces they were.

Every set that comes out makes me want to build Toshiro removal. Not because ulalek is busted (it is, but that’s not it); it’s because I really don’t want some new player trying to figure out their own stack 🙄 never letting this commander resolve
The thing about Ulalek, he needs flash to do what he wants to do, you need flash on your eldrazi to copy other spells, cuz you need them on the stack first otherwise they resolve before Ulaleks ability, and you can’t cast eldrazi while other spells are on the stack, the other thing is if you get the flash the copies are exponential, as you control the copies, so what you do is you gain flash (there was like 10 or 11 cards to give eldrazi flash) you cast a spell, you interrupt it by casting an eldrazi, Ulalek triggers, you interrupt by casting a second eldrazi, you now pay for his ability, witch copies his other trigger, and loop until you run out of mana. FYI 11 triggers is 2048 instances of a spell, and if your copying your ramp like you should be, you easily have 22 colorless mana available, and shapeshifters count as eldrazi

It's a rare commander that can make Shields of Velis Vell playable, tho. (It's a 1 mv Eldrazi instant, thereby easily triggering copying spells &/or activated &/or triggered abilities (incl its own!))
Nine Sol Rings? It states mana abilities can't be copied on the card.

but if you cast an eldrazi (or perhaps a kindred eldrazi instant) with sol ring on the stack that sure can get copied.

If you flash in an eldrazi while SR is on the stack, you copy SR. However, it would be easier, and dirtier to cast Energy Tap in response to casting your Eldrazi, get Ulaklek's ability resolved after the spell is on the stack, now you got two copies of ET to fire off, which means you're going to be able to cast another eldrazi and trigger the ability again almost assuredly.
Haha Tishanas tidebinder goes wrrrr.
Ulalussy foes crazy 😂
Is no one else thinking about how Eldrazi now have access to the crimes of all 5 colors
Can't wait to see Emralek and Ulakul, or gods forbid Kozulakul in Modern Horizons 4.
and this is why Summary Dismissal exists
A HUNDRED THOUSAND CURSES UPON THE ELDRAZI AND THEIR CREATORS
This is a fair card.
Hey can we get a link to go watch that junk? would be very convenient to just go from here to there
I mean, you gotta be curious what the Eldritch bedroom is like
All hail the Ulalussy
One of my local stores did NOT do their research, and are pre-selling this precon for $60. So yeah - instant speed Eldrazi babey
I'm just happy to have another commander I can hurl my two salt decks at and not feel bad!! (Slivers and Dimir Exile)
And now we wait for Aslakz
Þis is why I continue to request þe actual best colorless 5c commander: Urtet Remnant of Memnarch! (Or Wernog & Bjorna)
Hero’s was incredible give me more
I can't believe i drafted him and he was not taken by the guy behind me
