What the deck does well
- Ulalek doubles up cast triggers like Artisan of Kozilek and Oblivion Sower, plus any spells already on the stack.
- Plenty of colorless mana from Eldrazi Temple, Shrine of the Forsaken Gods and Talismans.
- Strong Eldrazi bodies like World Breaker, Endbringer and Oblivion Sower are already included.
Where it struggles
- Too many non-Eldrazi spells like Suffer the Past and Ugin’s Insight never trigger Ulalek.
- Weak creatures such as Sifter of Skulls and Deepfathom Skulker do little when copied.
- Card draw is thin, so the deck stalls after casting its first few big threats.

Verdict
Eldrazi Incursion has a powerful commander but a deck that often forgets to cast Eldrazi. Replace off-plan spells with copyable cast triggers, ramp and draw and Ulalek turns every big spell into a two-for-one.
