Deck Description

First and foremost this deck aims to be a flavour deck with nearly all the cards being Eldrazi themed in one way or another. At the same time it tries to amplify its punching power against most casual decks and ideally it should be able to stand up to nearly anything (barring the most powerful) I might encounter in casual environment.

Sideboard is designed so as to provide me with some variation in my playstyle. Like swapping Hands for extremely joyful third-turn Alphastrike, Waves for insane game-ending swarm, traps & NoTWs against counters and so on.

How to Play

1) Amass: Keep spawning and fetching lands for a few turns, intensively.
2) Small bites: Try to deal as much damage as possible early on with Invaders/Preds (as this usually corners the enemy into that "one slap, then you die" situation)
3) Stirrings: to fetch you that Monument or Hedron, asap
4) Spawns, Alive: Ensure there are always a few spawns on the field
5) The Mighty Should Fall: Momentous Fall, it's there to be used.
3) Bite, Fly & bite, Annihilate (Drones, Monuments, Titans: your three keys for a slaughter)

Deck discussion for Hungering Swarm (Pure Eldrazi)

I just love Eldrazi ramp, watch Awakening Zone, it's the card that usually make an Eldrazi Deck an amazing tournament like deck, cause having each turn a creature to sac or a blocker it's just amazing, and pair also very well with eldrazi monument.

Also what about Eye of Ugin? And it's a Modern/Ext deck? cause if you play in vintage or casual you could add some Cloudpost (Locus) and do a shi*ton of colorless mana!

Yeah, I've always wanted to try it out but I've never gotten myself around buying it (even though that fatal moment of having no spawns on the field always manages to surprise at some point) or I've forgotten about it already when placing an order. Maybe next time I will!
The Eye I've tried a lot, though I've found its search quite redundant. It costs quite a bit when taking into account that I almost never have a moment when I don't have an Eldrazi in my hand to cast. Even when I don't I usually have more lucrative options.
I could definitely see myself using Cloudpost every now and then. Gonna grab a set of those next time around!

Thanks for the feedback! :)
