how is this supposed to be an uncommon? think about it for a second!
It's gonna be ridiculous in constructed eldrazi and in limited there's enough common/uncommon eldrazi that if you get this it will pay off big time.

Hold on, is (almost) evry1 saying that this should be uncommon?! If this was uncommon, than it would be easier to obtain and thus making almost any and all eldrazi decks hard as all h ell to beat! I mean, you get 4 out on the field and boom, you get out things like Eldrazi Con s c r i p t ion , and Ulmog's Crusher. So you can put out Ulmog's Crusher on turn 4 and on turn 5 Eldrazi Con s c r i p t ion onto Ulmog, now you have a friggin 18/18 with annihilator 2 and trample. that is just way too powerful to be just an uncommon...plus you will be bringing out more land so then you can get things like It That Betrays. 1 thing is for certain, ALL Eldrazi decks need Elvish Piper uuugh...sooooo gooooood!! Also, why wont it let me type in Con***ion? See

@FelixCarter
They did almost exactly that on MTGO. The Planeswalker format (DPA) gives you roughly 200 cards per expansion with each expansion costing $5. You can only use these card in the DPA format, but they have many of the latest 'money' rares as well as a few of the most well known older ones. You can even look up a card list on each one so you have an idea of what you are getting. So far, games seem to be pretty fun as each player is more or less on a level playing field with card pools.

Even given the circumstances of limited play, this could've/should've been an uncommon.

If this said "Treefolk" or "Kraken" would people be as excited? It's a narrow card, good for eldrazi, bad for the other 99% of Magic decks. Invest in Temple of the False God instead.

"Okay, for those of you who are requesting for this to be made uncommon, get your heads out of the gutter and realize that this card is insanely powerful with Eldrazi and most definitely should not be any easier to obtain. "
There is no such thing as a hard to obtain magic card in standard. Walk into a store like Pats Games, say " I need 4 jace's, or I need 4 Baneslayer angles" and boom, there you go. Making this card an uncommon would only level the playing field when talking about eldrazi, which should never have been in MTG in the first place.

They should have made four different lands that add eight instead if you have all four out. Like the urza's lands sort of. This just seems too powerful to me. Maybe it isn't though, it's hard to get 'em all out at once anyways. . . I guess. We'll see!

i think it is an awesome card myself but i dont us eldrazi, but what i want to know myself incase i ever want to try some of them out, the colorless mana can it be usd for any mana type i.e. forest or swamp, etc. or do we just use it as a colorless and that is it, so it would be any collor of my choice to use it as?

@ArtsyWumpus: Thank you, Captain Obvious.
There's also Ancient Tomb, by the way.
