Finally, some Eldrazi stuff in this. I knew they wouldn't be in the set, as much as I wanted them too, but just acknowledging that they existed on Zendikar is good enough for me.

You know it was one of the photos teased on zendikar

No, I did not know that. I will say this set seems to be ignoring that an apocalyptic event happened on the plane not that long ago, probably less than a few years in story time, but maybe they discussed that in some article as to why we are spending so much time in the sky this time.
Hmm, while there may not be a place for this in competitive lists, I'm definitely getting one for my mid-budget Tron deck, the mana boost can make 15-mana Emmy great again, and the +2/+2 effect is stupid when paired with Newgin, who also makes it cheaper to cast. Yep, I can see this in my SB so Karn can fetch it.

Guess depends on how you connected you want it, but from lore a lot of the conflict is based on the eldrazi aftermath. Nahiri's whole goal is to stop the roil as is it a reminder of the eldrazi influnce on the plane and her failure to protect the plane by getting the for artifact(s) in the ruins. The sky ruins only activated since the only one left in the air (Emeria, the Sky Ruin) had been guarded by angels who left to deal with the eldrazi and explorers activates them.
They also mention Drana and the vampires struggling as Drana is the only blood chief (the only kinda of zendikar vampire that can make more vampires) left after the eldrazi whipped them out and is struggling to figure out how her people will survive.

Finally some Eldrazi!
I wonder if this could work in Colourless Eldrazi Tron.
It could. I plan on trying it out.
I'm looking to brew something colorless around it in Pioneer if possible as well. Not sure it will be competitive, but it should be fun at least.

STOP using "dude/bro" as a pejorative or insult. Grow up.

The problem with defining this format by what is "fun" is that everyone seems to define fun as what they don't lose to. If you keep losing to easily answered cards, that means you should improve your deck. If you don't want to improve your deck, then you should come to peace with the idea that you are going to lose because you chose to not interact with better strategies.
If a permanent taps for CC do you get CCC? I am going to assume yes but the wording makes me wonder.

That is correct, this will only add an additional C but that can go quite a long ways. This is effectively a Colorless Caged Sun for one less mana, an addition +1/+1, bonus mana on all permanents not just lands and some tacked on lifegain. That's pretty damn good if you ask me (was going to compare it to gauntlet of power but that hits everyone not just you.)
In what universe? If you build a deck like that, and ever draw that hand, I will personally come to wherever you live, perform complicated acts of awestruck ********, then disembowel myself to escape the world that allowed something like this to occur and validate you.
Yep that’s definitely why I’m getting at least one while cheap For my kozilek deck (and maybe morophon eldrazi) I think it will see waves in modern tron decks since it will make the tron lands tap for a total of 10 rather than 7
Standard MonoB Colorless LOVES this card....

Karn, the Great Creator turns it (Forsaken Monument) into a 7/7 creature for a turn as well. Unless War is rotating out, I don't pay attention to Standard at all.

yea zendikar rising released today so war karn rotated out of standard as of today
but can be done in pioneer or historic though (and I suppose modern if this karn is used in tron)

"We shall forever roam."
Mark tells us how they chose the mechanics of Zendikar Rising. He metnions that the last four Pathways are in Kaldheim.
Also, isn't that Ulamog's corpse?
maro tricked us
It’s nothing more than colorless creatures that’s every creature
Anyway welcome to the forever staple in Kozilek, the Great Distortion Decks (and I have one)
and since the Vikings are getting the missing pathways I can assume they are Based on seasons (Spring, summer, fall and winter)
Where I lay my head is home
So is this the new Akroma's Memorial?
This is probably the single "Eldrazi card" in the set.
And I still think that is a monument to Darkwing Duck.

This aint your girlfriends meta! This is a man's meta! TURBO META.
But it is a subset of creatures that first appeared in Alpha
At this point theres at least 1 card in each set now that goes infinite with it.
Turns all the colorless 0/1 , 1/1 tokens into real threats and wins fairly quickly from there.
An flying army of thopters will also do the trick.
Requires a specific deck to shine, but for the colorless EDH decks, this is just a gold mine.

Suffice it to say I ordered two foil copies of this today as soon as they were inventoried at my LGS, and will likely get more as they're opened unless it climbs in price rapidly because this also has potential in pioneer and modern.
Urzalands, ancient tomb, temple of the false god, city of traitors, mishra's workshop, mind stone, sol ring, mana vault, mana crypt, grim monolith, thopters, memnite, eldrazi, inverter of truth, wastes, wasteland, strip mine, and ghost quarter, mishra's factory, Urza's factory, inkmoth nexus, and other manlands all approve. As times goes on, we'll likely see more devoid creatures which will also benefit from this inadvertently.
