So this is the first deck I've made that doesn't consist of my own cards.

I'm sure some of you have seen plenty of eldrazi decks but I thought I'd give it a bash. I only started playing after these guys were out of standard.

With tooth and nail, you'll want emrakul main board. When hits its the most stability ring thing on the planet.

I just liked that I could bring in 150 ish worth of damage onto the battlefield in one go and then have another turn for my troubles :)
Spawnsire for the win :)

(hence the surprise part)

{Caged Sun}? {Birds of Paradise} because they are faster than the myr?

Caged sun is there x 4
Birds I decided against as they won't trigger the artifact artifact like the myr will.
Seriously tho, ramping is not the problem with this deck :)
Put it into cockatrice and see what you think. :)

Urza lands are good with the eldrazi. {urza's powerplant}, {urza's tower}, and {urza's factory}.

Yeah not bad, tho mana seriously isn't a problem with this deck. If they were artifact lands they would be in for sure.

I like elfdrazi decks better. More consistent ramp and very cheap to build

Ok so I think I need to explain how this works. You ramp rediculiosly quickly till you can either manually cast a Spawnsire or use tooth and nail to go find and drop him straight out. Then with 20 mana bring your sideboard to the battlefield all in one big drop. Its a GG as soon as that happens. As one of them is emrakul you get another turn and you annihilate your opponent and then take their life. (it's around 150 per swing)

You don't get the extra turn because to didnt cast him.

It doesn't cast them it just puts them into play or your hand. Putting them into play and casting them are 2 different things. Plus {joraga treespeaker} is better then the myr's.

He's saying that Spawnsire's ability lets you ▶CAST◀ any number of Eldrazi spells from outside the game. Not refering to {Tooth and Nail}

Exactly. You do what you can to get the Spawnsire on the field, then with those eldrazi lands, caged sun (green) and blinkmoth urn adding up all your artifacts, you can easily cast all of your sideboard with the Spawnsire's second ability.

Also with the tooth and nail, pay two more and do both is the best bit, unless you have them in your hand already. :)

Ah the way it's written it confused me. It says cast then without paying their mana cost. So it's confusing

I know right! It took me a few reads to understand it, but once I did I put this deck together.
As I may have mentioned I don't actually own all these cards, but I do have some. I've played it a few times on cockatrice and its pretty awesome when it works. People freak when you drop out 1 eldrazi, when you drop 15 they usually quit. Lol
