Emrakul having some other exclusive mechanic whenever she shows up again.
Didn't Emrakul bugger off into the multiverse after original Zendikar block?
It's been implied that she's not on Zendikar anymore, yeah. Some of her brood is hanging around still but there are no new ones appearing at the moment. Who knows where she's run off to.
No, if you look at the type line, Wastes have no basic land type, which is what domain counts. In past discussions of this ("Barry's Land"), Maro and others have indicated that they didn't want to mess with the functionality of domain, Coalition Victory, etc., which is probably why we have this solution.
Potentially, although I seem to remember WOTC saying that devoid was only used because they didn't have a way to portray colourless cards in the flavour they wanted...could be their chance?
What they said was that they tried to use the color indicator bubble, the one they put on the typelines of flip cards, to mark their colorlessness instead of needing to use words in the text box, but they ran into the problem of "what color is no color?". Brown looks too much like red, grey gets mistaken for white.

Have seen speculation that she is the "Shadow" over Innistrad.

Clearly they should have just punched a hole in the card.
How does this affect cost reduction? Does eye of ugin now reduce "CC" from colorless eldrazi spells? Are ALL cost reduction now worded with the "C" mana symbol?
I'm wondering if i'll be able to play the new cards in my modern eldrazi deck...
Ace1, the eye of Ugin reduces the generic mana in their cost, not the "colored" costs, which is also the reason they made this change (to help clarify hte difference between colorless and generic mana).
The only cards that will receive any errata are cards that add colorless mana to your mana pool. It is not a functional change, these cards will continue to function exactly like they have up until now, the only difference is how it is written on the card.
Everything cost related is and will continue generic. x1
Everything else, which is mana production, gets the symbol <> . As long as it is excplicitly colorless.
Roughly.
Makes sense, nothing is functionally changed, we just have a new specifically colorless mana cost. Otherwise thalia, guardian of thraben would become the most broken lady
Well with Wastes confirmed, that makes it even more so that the knew Kozi we saw is the real one (unless they somehow managed to make him even better). Kozi was always the vulnerable titan. I wonder if Emrakul's wastes are any different...
They announced him at the WMC. It is the one we saw, and this Kozilek is NOT vulnerable.
He is vulnerable due to the lack of indestructible or color hosing (that Emmy and Ula have). Was what I was referencing, also if you somehow have no hand with him out, he is just as vulnerable as his previous incarnation.
Good thing he fills your hand back up to 7 cards before he hits the table, yeah?
As far as Emrakul goes, I am very curious as to how they are going to handle that, and also if switching to the 2 set block system messed up an original intention of the three titans revealing over the 3 sets.

Well, I'm sure you meant this in some very limited
way that made it true. But costs can HAVE <>.
As evidence by the activation cost of Mirrorpool,
as well as the casting cost of Kozi.
But, if you were referring to things that reduce
costs. Right now, there is nothing that will
reduce <>, <><>, etc.; correct.
Right, devoid is common to all Eldrazi while Ingest and colorless mana costs are exclusive to Ulamog and Kozilek respectively, with Emrakul having some other exclusive mechanic whenever she shows up again.

Hey, I never felt Emrakul to be female
I looked for it during BFZ spoilers and couldn't find it, but I swear up and down that I saw an article somewhere on the mothership during Rise that explained the male/female split between eldrazi; the ones with vaguely humanoid torsos (neck, arms, abdomen) are male, and the ones that throw that out and are just weird masses of appendages are female, which is why Emrakul is the only she among the titans.
Is that actually all Spoilers weve got from the Event ?

At least eldrazi temples, pain lands and filter lands will work.

Nope. Wastes have no basic land type so they do not count for domain.
