same, i started playing in magic duels and fell in love with the art of the eldrazi. sads me that each titan had a not so creative end.... Ulamog ans Kozilek died by the power of friendship.... and Emrakul imprisoned herself on the moon because the writer want so...

I got into magic with the battle of zendikar set love playing them love their lore also

Kitt Kanto and the Eldrazi are basically the only things that got me interested in mtg, and the Phyrexians gave me a deck I vibe with

All can't be one, if all is dust! I personally hate poison in Phyrexia, rest is pretty cool

I like how, while despite being sealed in the moon, we can still see Emrakul's influence on Inastrad. I also love how each Eldrazi seemed to have an effect that fundementally changed the game in the sets which they were introduced. A subtle way to show their power as cosmic horrors with their meer presence twisting reality. Ulamog's brood I think being one of the first to really interact the exile mechanics outside of just a way to get rid of cards. Kozilek being the one to introduce the colorless symbol. Emrakul introducing the whole Meld mechanic to the game. All 3 mechanics which we have seen continued to have exist in some way in the game today.

My long term deck project is a colorless Eldrazi tribal deck, Ulamog’s Crusher was the start of it all for me. Their concept is fascinating to me.

I'm glad!

in regards to ulamog and kozilek's fate, it's my understanding that what they did with the leylines was essentially grab onto the hand and yank the entire being onto the plane, pulling the person into the pond, now this was killing zendikar, so the last ditch idea was to ignite the leyline pulling them in, which, when a fire spell is fueled by an entire planes worth of mana, was enough to kill the true bodies of ulamog and kozilek, I could be wrong, but that's how I understood that event. also, mostly a neat fact, but avacyn was not only going mad due to the redirected leylines, she was single handedly keeping emrakul from manifesting on innistrad, even if subconsciously, that probably had some effect, it was only as sorin unmade her that emrakul manifested and began it's thing.

No, that's pretty much what happened. It's why Ugin was mad at the gatewatch. It's not that Ugin, Sorin, and Nahiri couldn't kill the eldrazi. They just didn't know enough about them to know what effect killing them might have. "Yes, yes," said Ugin. "It all follows. You could hold them using the glyph, but without the hedrons to bleed off energy and hold the leylines in place, your only options were to let the titans go or pull them fully into physical space and destroy them." Jace blinked. "You said that wasn't possible." "I said it wasn't possible for you," said Ugin. "And you led me to believe you weren't going to try, so spare me your sanctimony." "Wait," said Nissa. "You knew the titans could be killed? Did you know that when you trapped them here?" Ugin rose up on two legs, towering above them like a schoolmaster. "You've killed two living creatures that were older than worlds," said Ugin. "Without knowing their purpose, their role, the impact of their lives or their deaths-you risked this entire plane and unknown consequences beyond it to kill them. Because you could."

If I'm not mistaken the helvault was designed to protect innistrad from things like the eldrazi, in addition to being a sort of prison. So avacyn was taking on an additional job/role she was not designed for, and not designed for doing alone. This all could've been avoided if sorin had made a way to let things out of the helvault. That way avacyn couldn've been released from the helvault when she got trapped in there, and maybe wouldn't have destroyed it just to get at griselbrand.

@@juliandacosta6841 I think the Helvault was more primarily designed to counter Demons and other "outsiders", I don't think the Eldrazi were in mind when the original lore was written, but it's something that could of been retconned and make sense. I guess it depends on how far in advanced MTG's writters were planning when they made the Inastrad block based around the Helvault.

That is the official lore, which is also dumb as fuck

I used to play MtG casually so many years ago but I don't really have other people to play with nowadays. The first deck I got was Champions of Kamigawa which I played with my older cousins. When I went to college I found that my classmates also played so I decided to get a more up-to-date deck and bought Eldrazi Assault since it was new at the time. The set also had a booster pack that came with it and I managed to get Ulamog, I was so hyped. I really like the aesthetic of the Eldrazi since they're so otherworldly. I also started Bloodborne as my first Soulsborne game shortly after and it was a perfect back-to-back experience of Lovecraftian/Eldritch horror goodness.

by the way she says it, emrakul is a force for good that cant help but corrupt everything, like that mutant in marvel that released that releases a deadly gas that kills everyone hes ever known

A friend of mine and I share a theory: Based on Emrakul’s statements about how the realm wasn’t ready for her and it wasn’t her time, the Eldrazi might serve an unknown purpose. Considering what they all do, it’s entirely possible they reshape realms and the realms begin anew. If that is actually true, then destroying Kozilek and Ulamog was a terrible mistake.

Going by the "plunging a hand into the pond" analogy, it's possible that what the Gatewatch did was the equivalent of dragging their arm into the pond, rather than the entire being, because even now I refuse to believe Ulamog and Kozilek are fully dead (because they deus ex machina'd that shit in a fucking artbook)

@laurentrobitaille2204

So they’re kind of like scavengers recycling planes? My only problem is that the Eldrazi search ripe planes full of mana, not dying worlds. Also there’s the possibility there are other Eldrazi out there because the multiverse is enormous and it’s possible others are siphoning unknown planes.

@OOMTG

Emrakul can produce her own brood. While we don’t see them on Inistrad, there are a few eldrazi from Zendikar that are hers, like the card vestige of Emrakul. I think the lack of direct spawns from Emrakul on Inistrad is linked with her being dragged there against her will and didn’t really want to devour the plane, so she didn’t spawn other eldrazi.

Great job on the story. I love Eldrazi as well. KEEP STAYING PAWZITIVE BRO 👍

"Which Eldrazi is your favorite?" Yes.

Eldritch moon was my first set. I pulled a Fevered Visions from my first pack and the art had me hooked. I love all the new (pushed) Eldrazi support to make them feel as threatening as the lore makes them out to be.

Awesome content! Can’t wait to see what’s next. Would love to see you really tie the cards and lore together more and maybe reference some flavor text so I can feel the impact of these cards instead of them being separate.

I love eldrazi but one thing i have always found weird is how all the ugin cards help eldrazi. Like how the eye of ugin, where the titans were sealed away, makes them cheaper

Zhulodok, Void Groger is the way to build Eldrazi deck. With the new set MH3, it's insane.

I've always thought that the Eldrazi are not evil or good in any sense of the world, they are custodians of the blind eternities, their purpose is to clean worlds of both physical (Ulamog) and magical ( Kozliek) and make it anew (Emrakul) for one reason or another. I don't know too much about their lore, but going off of what the various titan's broods are seen doing in their cards and implied from flavor text that is what I gathered. I think that is why Emrakul allowed itself to be imprisoned in the moon, as it saw Innistrad as a world that was not prepared for rebirth.

@OOMTG

4 күн бұрын

I pretty much agree! I almost think of them as like natural disasters. Nothing 'evil' about a storm, but that doesn't mean they can't cause harm

Honestly Ulalek seems to simply be a combination of Kozilek and Ulamog and really that in itself is bloody terrifying. They barely managed a win against them as they were but both beings combined and in perfect sync...bad news right there.

I heard about the Eldrazi when the mh3 precon deck was announced and they are so interesting. I ended up getting the deck because I ended up enjoying them.

Even Emrakul hates Nahiri, she just wanted out of the lithomancer's narrative.

Great Video, Love the lore but I have a big question: Why do you say that Emrakul cannot create spawn? There are a few cards that show Emrakul's spawn. "Emrakul's Hatcher" and "Hand of Emrakul" Definintely seem to suggest she has spawn. Not to mention there is a print of the token with art of one of her spawn.

Tldr : eldrazi is casted and the opponent concedes

I kind of don't like how we don't have any info on the new eldrazi legends, I hope they give us some lore snippets like they do for nearly every other set of legends. I'd so love to know what the hell is happening with ulalek's name, and if azlask really is a scion of ulamog's or that's just the visual design playing tricks on me.

Still wild to me that Nahiri literally threw a tantrum because her vampire bf wouldn't pick up the phone.

This video makes me want Wizards to work with Bungie to make a Destiny themed set. The Eldrazi look like the Boss from the Lightfall raid

You said that emrakul uses living things for her lineage, but what about the original non-legendary emrakul eldrazi from Rise of the Eldrazi? There's only 3 plus the creature tokens, but it seems to suggest that she creates her brood the same way the other titans do. Also, at 11:20 you say that kozilek's brood are thinking beings, but on kozilek's predator, it says "it's difficult to outwit something that doesn't speak, strategize, or even think." Maybe just kozilek's drones, scions, and spawn are incapable of thought? I can't imagine the last two having any use for it.

One question, eldrozi vs Egyption God cards, sacred beasts, wicked God's, or Nordic gods of Yu-Gi-Oh.

Hollow knight music ftw

Modern horizons has also had currently dead characters before like urza and yawgmoth, so it could also be a past version of them on a different plane. The Fused Atrocity thing isn't though, as that's supposed to be made from the leftover remains of the two. But that's also from commander, so I'm not sure if that makes it more likely to be non-canon.
