Commander deckC
Ulamog, the Defiler
Accelerate rapidly using explosive artifact mana to cast game-ending colorless Eldrazi titans, leveraging Ulamog to exile opponents' key assets and turn their graveyards into an insurmountable, annihilating beatstick.
Asked for“A colorless deck with Ulamog the defiler as the commander. No budget.”
Deck anatomy
What this list actually runs on: how cheaply it casts things, and whether it has enough ramp, card draw and interaction to keep up at the table. Each block is one card — hover for its name.
Mana curve · 62 nonland cards
The working parts
Counted from Scryfall’s community card tags, not from the builder’s own labels. A card that does two jobs counts twice, so these add up to more than the deck. The hatched band is a common rule of thumb, not a law — combo decks run leaner, battlecruiser decks heavier.
