Title: Phyrexian Dominated Zendikar
Post by: Sparkle Ninja on January 27, 2014, 10:12:38 PM
I got this idea in the "What do you want reprinted" thread about Phyrexia versus Zendikar with Infected Eldrazi. What would you guys want to see, how would it function, any new ideas for abilities or creatures. I want to see what you guys come up with

Ulamog the undying plague {8}
Legendary creature~Eldrazi Plague lord
Infect
Atrocity 2 (whenever this creature attacks defending player must sacrifice 2 creatures they control if they can not, defending player gets 2 poison counters)
If Ulamog is put in a graveyard reveal it and shuffle into your library.
8/6

Something like that? ^^^^

Figured I should move this over to this thread.

Seems very very op, I think that's why the great eldrazi can't become phyrexian.

Well. You could also flip that coin. Have Phyrexians get affected by the Eldrazi. Like tons of phyrexian spawns and what not. Also!
I know Emrakul is like the leader of Eldrazi
Who is the sick nasty of Phyrexia?

The Eldrazi would eat Phyrexians for lunch...
Eldrazi are to Phyrexians as Species 8472 are to Borg...

Eldrazi, Overlord of Death {16}

Can't be countered
When it attacks, flip a coin. If heads, annhialator 4. If tails infect 4.
Pro white and red.
When it dies shuffle GY in library.
12/12

Like that?

I would love this set.
(The praetors being the walkers? F yeah!)

You really only counter one spell every other turn! 4 mana? How many times can you realistically use that? Once! But me, I can constantly, multiple times a turn usually, search my library for a set number of a set cards and give it to me! Muahaha!

That's unnecessary several times over. XD

A card that had Phyrexia infect the Eldrazi would be something like this...

Elesh Norn, the Torn Cenobite {W}{W}{7}
Legendary Creature - Eldrazi Praetor

Vigilance, first strike.
When Elesh Norn enters the battlefield, choose Infect or Annihilator.

Creatures you control get +2/+2 and gain Infect if you chose Infect.

Creatures you control get +1/+1 and gain Annihilator 1 if you chose Annihilator.

5/7

Or I could go the other way...

Emrakul the Blighted {18}
Legendary Creature - Eldrazi

Protection from coloured spells and creatures without Infect.
When Emrakul enters the battlefield, take an extra turn after this one.
If Emrakul would enter the graveyard from anywhere, shuffle it into your library instead.
Annihilator 6, infect.

"Do you see, now? Even they are not immune to the call of Phyrexia."

1 I wanna like all your posts simply because of your username
2 seems to be Praetors based on everyone's posts above^^^
But I mean. It is Phyrexia

I got an Idea

Yawgamoth, Lord of Phyrexia 7 colorless 6 Black
8/12
Infect, Annihilator 2
When Yawgamoth, Lord of Phyrexia enters the battlefield, gain control of target opponent's next turn.

Give him an effect like "When Yawgmoth attacks, target player gains poison counters equal to your devotion to {B}"

I forbid this. It must be old style. Infect is pushing it, but it makes sense.

How about this:

3 colorless 4 Black
Yawgmoth, Phyrexan Dreadlord

When Yawgmoth, Phyrexan Dreadlord enters the battlefield gain control of target player's creatures until end of turn. They untap and gain haste until end of turn.

1BB sacrifice a creature: Destroy Target Creature, it cannot be regenerated.

Speaking of Vorinclax...

Vorinclax, Voice of the Hive {G} {G} {G} {G} {5}
Creature- Praetor

Trample, Haste
When Vorinclax, Voice of the Hive enter's the battlefield, search your library for any number of target creatures with converted mana cost equal to {6}. Shuffle your library. Then put all creatures searched for this way onto the battlefield, They gain haste until end of turn.

Wouldn't you need to add them to your hand or exile them? Cuz it just says search for them. Nothing about what you do when you find them. Cuz if you search then shuffle. You have to jut know where they are to put them into play?
