Combos with Melira, Sylvok Outcast, a sac outlet, and any dude with Persist to make infinite Eldrazi Spawn tokens, and hence infinite colorless mana.

Damnit. If only he was an Eldrazi, he'd have a place in my all-Eldrazi deck. As is, he doesn't fit the bill.

Interestingly, even if your Pawn of Ulamog is a token, you still get an Eldrazi Spawn token when it dies, which forms an interesting combo with Infinite Reflection. When another creature you control dies, you get an Eldrazi Spawn token, which turns into a copy of Pawn of Ulamog. This provides you with an unending supply of creatures for (at least) blocking. Add any sacrifice engine (i.e. Phyrexian Altar, Blasting Station) and you're good to go infinite.

Despite getting something eldrazi oriented, I think that this card functions best in a Jund colored devourer deck with a focus on undying. It allows for a situation where you are sacrificing creatures regularly to your devourers, which can make them stronger with undying (allowing you to sacrifice a second time) and getting tokens for it. These tokens can either be make-shift devour bait, or be a mana ramp to a large creature like Broodmate Dragon, Mikaeus, the Unhallowed or T***k the Insatiable.

Perhaps Deathmark should reread the card a few more times until it sinks.

Run this in Vampire Tribal with Mephidross Vampire to continue getting all of those awesome Vampire Nocturnus and Stromkirk Captain buffs on your new Eldrazi Spawn tokens.

@Ragamander: Sorry dude. Infinite Reflection specifies that only your nontoken creatures turn into copies; unfortunately, it would not combo with this card.

You could always try Mirrorweave to sac/replace your tokens.

EDH combo, since it's not useable anywhere else:
Nim Deathmantle, ashnod's altar, and a creature with either a LTB or ETB effect, and you win. Bogardan Hellkite, for example
