I've actually found Worldbreaker to be kind of underwhelming. It's of course spectacular in the mirror, but normally I find it too slow, particularly with its Green mana requirement.
Same. Im already back to 4 Wurmcoils instead with a Worldbreaker in the SB
Round 1: Possibility Storm
Lost G1 due to thinking it was Ad Naus until Kozilek came out of nowhere. In G2, i went for an aggressive clock for the win. G3 had me winning due to a combination of a fast clock and a timely Tidehollow Sculler. Casting Pulse with Possibility Storm in play revealing a Pulse in the very first card was funny.
Round 2: B/W Tokens
G1, kept a somewhat *****ty hand with lots of land expecting DnT, 2 discards later, i top decked a Melira and then evolved her into a Pontiff won the game. G2, Sigarda vs 6 Tokens, Bitter Blossom and Intangible Virtue while Zealous Persecution blew my board out. G3, Collected Company into Eternal Witness getting back Collected then evolving a Kitchen Finks with Anafenza finished the game.
Round 3: Dredge
G1, I already have Finks and Seer in my opening hand, Collected into Anafenza and combo off'd. G2, Seer and Melira in hand with Evolution. T3 Evolve'd a dork for Finks.
My thoughts on Evolution:
It feels very powerful against combo decks because if you have it, they can't win. Or at least they won't win until they deal with your hate card. The idea was use Collected Company to fill the board with Evolution targets because having no creatures on board felt awful than normal compared to previous builds with 4 Chords. I think the 4/3/2 split is the way to go with me leaning on the 3 Eldritch Evolution side. Im probably going to remove the Thune-Feeder combo and replace it with more Voice of Resurgence.
Eldritch Evolution at worst could simply convert that BoP/Noble Hierarch/Wall of Roots into a Witness/Finks/Murderous Redcap, not to mention getting silver bullets as soon as T2. Aside from the obvious value oriented builds, i think this card will lead to an even more combo-ish version of the deck
Maybe I'm missing something in this evaluation, but doesn't Ulamog give an opponent 2-3 turns to kill you?
Ulamog exiles 2 existing threat or render opponents unable to cast them, and the mill effect is very disruptive. Mindslaver's disruption depends solely on what they have in the board and in the hand. While it could potentially destroy the opponent, it's not a sure thing.
Newlamog threatens to end the game in the next 2 turns while exiling 2 permanents. This new Emrakul gets chump blocked by Birds and Lingering Souls, easily 2/10 as a big finisher. It even dies to Maelstorm Pulse.
Sword of Light and Shadow in the SB vs Grindy decks? Im having a hard time dealing with removals and Wrath of Gods. I don't want to dedicated more than 1-2 SB space for them

Hah.
Banning Eye of Ugin will just weaken the deck. Banning Eldrazi Temple will destroy it.
