Deck overview

This is a classic Animar, Soul of Elements Eldrazi ramp deck. The plan is to deploy a dense suite of mana dorks, cast Animar early, then grow him with every creature cast so his cost-reduction discounts the deck's enormous Eldrazi finishers down to a handful of mana. The primary win is combat: annihilator triggers from Ulamog's Crusher, Pathrazer of Ulamog, Kozilek, Butcher of Truth, and the Ulamog/Kozilek legends strip opponents' boards while 8-13 power bodies close the game. A secondary, faster line is the Ancestral Statue infinite loop with Animar, converting infinite creature casts into infinite counters, card draw via Beast Whisperer/Elemental Bond, and free Eldrazi. The deck leans on haste enablers like Temur Ascendancy and Rhythm of the Wild to make its threats hit immediately.
