Is it just me, or does Kozilek seem to have alot of brood lineage?

5 cmc is too expensive but good for RoE draft/sealed This card will never hit your opponent because of low toughness

Too high CMC for too little, a 4/1 plus 2 0/1's for (4B) is just a little steep for me. If your running Eldrazi run Green, and support with Black and Red and not with they're Drones they suck, again use Green.
It is sad that this is Blacks only Drone

Yes, we probably won't be seeing this in standard. But a 4/1 creature plus 2 0/1 mana producers for 5 is very powerful in limited. Dread Drone can't be Vendetta'd, and no one is going to waste a Flame Slash on it, either.

Worse in every possible way than Emrakul's Hatcher. Why does black have to pay such a steep price for late-game ramp? >.<

The 0/1s are efficient (if you pack something good with it, like in the Kozilek's Predator's case), but the 4/1 non-trampling weakie-body is not so efficient.

Based on it having "Dread" in its name, I wonder if Intimidate/Fear was removed from this at the last minute? If so, it really would have been better to drop one power instead.
Should cost 1 less, in my opinion. What do you think?

By the time you're using this to ramp in black, it's probably turn 4 or 5 and the game's about over, if this card is any indication of the quality of your deck.

Definitely not the best of the drones, but I can get behind it. It's got +1/-2 over Emrakul's Hatcher, which is bad, but that extra power might come in handy if you've got something to give it First Strike.
That being said, still underwhelming, but at Common I'd call it fair.
Edit: Wow, just doublechecked the numbers. Nevermind, Dread Drone is absolutely pitiful.

if they gave him first strike, he'd be good, if they gave him fear or intimidate, he would be alright, if he had trample, he would be playable, if he gave 4 tokens, he would be great, but as is, he isnt is he?
