@thrallallmighy: shame on you, A) for brighing up the "it dies to everything" bull crap that we all know doesn't matter, and B) for ignoring all the ramp in the set that lets you wipe this out at reasonable speed and effort.
not only that but always draw 4 cards and they discard a removale, I'ld throw some mana for that.

Funny how so few people thought that the Eldrazi were competitive when this was released...
Seriously, Kozilek is easily my favorite Eldrazi (and the best one to have in my opening hand). At a mere 10 mana, he regularly comes out on turn 4-5 with a decent Standard ramp deck. But it's the uncounterable draw-four that makes him truly insane.
I don't care that he dies to removal after I cast him. Hell, I don't even care if he resolves. At worst, he's a 5-for-1 who refills my hand and draws out my opponent's answer. (And if my opponnent doesn't have an answer for him, Kozilek just wins.)

bad bad bad bad. Too cheap to play for what it does. No risk involved to play something so strong. Annihilator is easily one of the most unfair keywords.

I think you haters are missing the point, these cards are meant to be played with ramp, and when done right this is amazing! 5/5
Turn 1. Forest
Turn 2. Eldrazi Temple, Overgrown battlement
Turn 3. Eldrazi Temple, Overgrown battlement, Tap OG put another OG down or Wall of Omens
Turn 4. Tap both ED's and 2 OG's. Cast Kozilek.
I run full playsets of the cards I mentioned expet for Koz, only run 3 of him, 1 of his counterparts. I get this or similar opening hand 85% of the time. I cant wait for FNM this week.

So, Ive been trying to figure out the best card to put this comment on.
If Kozilek was a Pokemon, it would say:
DOCTOR OCTO-MTHR-FRKIN-GONAPUS, BRAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If he is destroyed, your opponent is down one card and you're up three. He's at worst an uncounterable card draw spell. And that's even assuming he gets killed. No reason not to protect him. Heck, Hyena Umbra would do a good job if they don't kill him in response to his coming into play.

Why do the comments either say he is absolutely terrible or the best creature ever? He's in the middle, people.
