Jiachen Tao must face down his second Hall of Fame Pro and his second Colorless Eldrazi deck. If he's going to win it all, he'll need some more Eldrazi Magic against Luis Scott-Vargas.

I love how it takes less than 90 seconds to show why Eye of Ugin got banned.

Pretty sure this is 3 years out of date, but at 44:58 did JC Tao pay for Obligator's ability with a Steam Vents and an Eye tapping for black? If so, that's an illegal move as he doesn't have the colorless Mana for the Obligator cost. He would've had to use the Cavern instead but apparently did that for the red mana instead.

Technically, if JC used the Steam Vents for the R, then the Eye (Urborg-B) and Cavern (C) for the Activation, it would have still worked out the way it was intended.

+The Cynical ME Prior to this pro tour Modern had been very diverse after the ban of splinter twin. Here's to hoping people either find a way to beat the deck because I think it would be a shame to ban even more cards. Makes me wish Modern had a restricted list so that cards like Eye of Ugin can be dealt with without completely removing it from the format as a one of wouldn't be game breaking like 4 in a deck can be.

+AnsticePalo one of the advanteges of running new strategies is that people don't have adequate hate in their sideboard for it, yet. there's nothing that screams "OP" to me about these decks. they're strong, but not unfair. the meta will acclimate to this pretty quickly.

it's weird every time the camera catches a shot of LSV when he's not doing anything he has this really kinda dumb expression on his face, but then as soon as someone addresses him or it's time to play or he looks towards the camera it snaps back into his normal expression, I'm going to just assume he's tired from all this play.

At 45:03 when JC Tao targets the Matter Reshapher with the Obligator's EtB effect, then pays B (off Urborg) and U or R (off Steam Vents), isn't the mana payment insufficient? The ability costs 1C - he tapped his Cavern of Souls, which produces colorless mana, to pay for the Obligator itself. LSV wasn't strictly dead there.

This is an old comment, so forgive me if you no longer care, but Jiachen 6 lands (including the Eye of Ugin for black mana), sacrificed a Scion, then played a 2nd Eye of Ugin from hand, and sacrificed the tapped Eye of Ugin due to the legend rule. With has 7 mana that he made, Jiachen activated the untapped Eye of Ugin for it's ability. They also explain that immediately during the match.

Thought-Knot Seer Costs 3 Mana plus 1 Colorless ( (3)C ). He has 1 Eldrazi Temple, and 1 Eye of Ugin on the field. Eye of Ugin states "Colorless Eldrazi spells you cast cost (2) less to cast. This effectively changes Thought-Knot Seer to cost (1)C. The Eldrazi Temple states "Tap: Add (2) to your mana pool. Spend this mana only to cast colorless Eldrazi Spells or activate abilities of colorless Eldrazi." This pays the 1 Colorless requirement, plus the 1 any color.
