Idol of False Gods
Oracle Text
{1}{C}, {T}: Create a 0/1 colorless Eldrazi Spawn creature token with "Sacrifice this token: Add {C}."
Whenever another Eldrazi you control dies, put a +1/+1 counter on this artifact.
As long as this artifact has eight or more +1/+1 counters on it, it's a 0/0 creature in addition to its other types and it has annihilator 2.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Idol of False Gods is a slow-burn engine that fits best in value-oriented Eldrazi decks, especially midrange shells that can convert incidental creature deaths into escalating pressure. Its first job is simple: spend generic mana and colorless mana to make Eldrazi Spawn, which both ramps you and provides sacrifice fodder for future turns. The real payoff comes from letting your own Eldrazi die, turning each loss into a +1/+1 counter and eventually awakening the Idol as a 0/0 creature with annihilator 2. That makes it especially strong in decks with cheap Eldrazi, sacrifice outlets, or token-heavy curves that can keep the counters flowing. Pair it with cards that sacrifice creatures for value or recur Eldrazi to repeatedly trigger the counter gain. In gameplay terms, it rewards patience and board management: play defense early, build resources, then force the opponent into a race they are unlikely to win once the Idol wakes up.
