Umm, if its in play, then when you sac it you get 3 cards after the demon's effect resolves. I thought that would have been obvious.....
you also have no way to play those cards next turn. thought that would have been obvious
discarding your hand to draw three could be some good card quality and/or advantage but not in this case
Edit: you might have just skipped over the "sac every other permanent" text.
Recent discussions here and elsewhere have made it clear that there seems to be a group of players who consider blue and control synonymous, as if they somehow started playing a game with four identical and "bad" colors that do nothing interesting because they just "turn men sideways" and then true, glorious blue, the only thinking person's color.

I got the 6/6 for 3BBB with "Exile the top six cards of your library. You MAY cast any number of nonland cards exiled this way without paying their mana costs." part right in my prediction! I thought it would entail loss of life instead of sacrificing all permanents and discarding all cards though. =/
Yes but why go the route of all the hand hate then? I want to get rid of their removal and attack with this. The turn i play him i may not be able to do hand hate. So i set it up prior turns for that. But this is an interesting choice. Ill have to think about that one
"I'm attacking with my enormous demon and want to play some Eldrazi".
"In response, I play Silence. EOT, path to exile."
Except Silence isn't played in any tier 1 deck; and if this guy gets to the stage where people ARE playing Silence just to deal with him, it means some people started winning tournaments with him left and right
That "T1: Dark Rit, Entomb, Exhume" play sounds gloriously evil. 6 damage on T2 at the price of what, 4 cards in hand and 1 swamp in play? Plus the chance to bomb out some more awesomeness after he connects? Don't see Standard play in his future, Abyssal Persecutor is just so much better, but I can most definitely see some use in Extended and Legacy.
So, I don't think its worth it to sacrifice all the permanents you own, since, unless you play all indestructible creatures, and people know this is coming, there will be a board wipe if you are playing anyone good. Yeah, I get a bunch of eldrazi, but if you cast the one that's indestructible, you have to kill off something of your own. Maybe something will come out of this, I really like the card, but its just not very good looking.

I already know of a Summoning Trap deck that runs black, so yeah. This is doable in that deck as a 1-2 of since it has pulses to deal with defenders and a flexible mana base. If some Eldrazi cards that are a bit more advantageous than Corpse Hatch exist I could see a GB Eldrazi/Summoning Trap deck with 1-2 of these.
Won't get the extra turn, but hey guess what? You just got a 15/15 flyer pro-spells annihilator 6 for 6 mana at the end of your opponents turn!
Or:
You stalled till Turn 5-6ish and were able to swing in with this guy:
Take an extra turn and/or draw four cards and/or destroy target permanent your opponent controls and/or play a 10/10 protection from everything.
It could be sexy, and what's sexier than the tentacle rape that is Eldrazi?
I really like the art style on this card, even if it is slightly homo-erotic. Classic oil painting feeling. This is how Day of Judgment should've been done.

There goes a few instances of the 6 "demon" in the orb. I hope the other is less than a 6+ drop--demon's have more than enough of those. This card does work well with Doomsday. I drawback--(sorta like with Persecutor) is really a drawback when examined more closely. I you can't win with this on the first or second swing, then it shouldn't be in your deck. Lim-dul's Vault is sort of monstrous with this...pretty much an auto win if you use it right. Nice Exhume/Soul Exchange/ Death target.
Thanks im salivating right now baby!!! I am going to use lightning greaves in this deck. Oh snap the five cards i go get are 2 legendary eldrazi ullamog and emrakul and 2 greaves and something else. Something the negates the doomsday effect such as a mirror of fate. I am soo liking this card right now!!!!!
I like this guy. Seems like if you make a deck similar to the Cascade Control decks from a while ago, he can negate his drawback and in fact put you ahead when he connects.

Razor: Cast him first. Save your land.
Ward of Bones: Get it with his ability and your opponent can't play anything (save for 1 creature).
Looks decent in an EDH Hypergenesis deck...or some other weird jank...flavorful, at least.

What about Doomsday?

EWW...if this card DOES see constructed play, Mindbreak will definitely be sided in.:-/
Hmm...if could be interesting with Realm Razer...4 color nonblue would probably be a b*tch to play, though.

It exemplefies perfectly what a demon should do, so I'll give it credit for that. It looks amazingly fun in EDH as well.
Well done Mythic in my opinion.
