Funny how you can kill Kozilek with Corpsehatch. Uh, I meant, "Innocence Tube."

They should have called it "Spawn Broodlings".

@ Vinifera7: I disagree. This is a kill spell, not just a spell to spawn broodlings. Corpsehatch captures both effects in one word.
Also just out of interest, does anyone know if there is a spell in MTG similar to Corpse Explosion from Diablo? Maybe something that exiles a creature from target player's graveyard and then deals damage to him/her (possibly based on said creature's toughness)? That would be awesome.

@ Stray
Spawn Broodlings is an ability of the Queen unit from Starcraft. It simultaneously kills a unit and creates two little broodling creatures.

It's a little expensive. The cost makes sense for what it does, but Eldrazi needs early removal to get the running and this is just no tfast enough imo

As creative a reference it might seem, "Spawn Broodlings" is boring and Corpsehatch conveys exactly what it needs to in a clean portmanteau of a word that rolls off the tongue.
It involves a corpse you recently produced, and 2 spawns hatch from it. It might as well be a 1BB removal spell. It's great and in addition to that, play this twice and you can sac the 4 spawns for a 9cmc Hand of Emrakul.

Don't treat it like an expensive slow Doom Blade; treat it like a Nekrataal that gives you 2 bodies.

Black kinda got shafted with the Eldrazi. Pity, some of these cards have potential. If this had been at it would have been fine.

Anyone else notice that this and Curse of Wizardy's are put next to each other makes a sweet picture.

Wow, people aren't lying when they say Rise of the Eldrazi was a slow set.

@BongRipper: It was awesome. There were basically two dominant strategies: Ramp into Eldrazi or defend yourself until you got the mana to cast Eldrazi. Spot removal was in high demand, and Corpsehatch is particularly nice, letting you both kill an opponent's creature while helping you reach the magical 8 mana to cast Ulamog's Crusher
