Flayer of Loyalties is a massive and imposing eldrazi creature that can drastically alter the battlefield. Its enormous casting cost reflections the devastating effects it can have when it comes into play.

When cast, it not only gains control or an opponent's creature for a turn but also transforms that creature into a terrifying 10/10 Monstrosity with Trample, Annihilator 2, and Hast. This Ability Can Be Used To Turn An Opponent's Creature Against Them or Snatch A Crucial Blocker, Often Leading To A Significant Swing In The Game.

With A 10/10 Stat Line and Annihilator 2, even if the controlled creature is Dalt with, Flayer of Loyalties Itself is a formidable threat that can quickly dismantle an opponent's board.

The Name and Card Text Suggest A Theme of Domination and Destruction, Characteristic or Eldrazi. John Tedrick's Artwork Likely Illustrates The Horrifying Appearance of the Flayer, A Visual Representation of its Ability to Seize Control and Warp Other Creatures to Its Will.

For a deck able to generate enough mana to cast this colossal creature, Flayer of Loyalties Offers A Potent and Potentialy Game-Ort Presence.
