Personally, I think this card will catch on in
Eldrazi decks much better than Eye of Ugin,
simply because this can be tapped for mana. Only
one mana if it's anything other than one of your
big hitters, but that's one more than Eye of
Ugin can provide. Sure, the Eye can tutor up an
Eldrazi when you're ready for it, or an artifact
creature for that matter, but this can be tapped
to pay for other spells in the interim.
This is going to be a very popular card just
because it helps cast those cool new Eldrazi
titans. I'm not sure whether it's more purely
effective than green acceleration effects, or
than the Eldrazi Spawn tokens, but it goes with
Eye of Ugin. And it got style.
Welcome back readers today’s card of the day is
Eldrazi temple a new land from the latest set
that unsurprisingly helps Eldrazi card. Eldrazi
temple can tap for one mana or two colorless
mana if you only spend the mana to cast
colorless Eldrazi spells or activate their
abilities. In standard this card will see play
with Eldrazi cards and will more than likely
have a archetype based around the Eldrazi and
this card being at the center of it. In extended
and eternal I doubt this card will see much play
depending on how playable each of the Eldrazi
are in these formats. In casual and multiplayer
Eldrazi will be a popular choice as their power
is unrivaled and the fact they are the newest
cards available to dekbuilders and everyone will
be looking to break them. Combining Vesuva with
Eldrazi temple is an even better casual or
extended strategy. There is a plethora of ways
to aid in the hard casting the Eldrazi but this
is one of the most effective. In limited the
chances of getting this card along with Eldrazi
powerful enough to draft in your decks is
marginally slim but if you can assemble the
pieces it would be a powerful strategy.
Today's card of the day is Eldrazi Temple which
is rather simply a colorless mana producing land
that can produce two for Eldrazi spells or
activated abilities. This is a must for
Eldrazi decks for easy acceleration, but not
much benefit for anything else.
In Limited this is worth running if you happen
to get it in sealed along with a few Eldrazi
cards, but is a hard choice to pick early in
Booster. If this is in your first pack the
worst case scenario is not seeing any Eldrazi
later on, in which case you have a colorless
land with no penalty and kept it from being used
against you. Eldrazi Temple becomes a
better choice as the draft moves along as you'll
have Elrazi already and if passed to you it is
fairly likely that player is not running any
Eldrazi themselves.
