Title: Eldrazi - Was it that big a threat?

I was searching around in the database and I thought, I don't know much about these Eldrazi guys.  I should do a little research because they sound kinda cool.  So I did.

It's not that hard to type Eldrazi in the search bar and get all the answers you need since everything has the word in the card type. 

After a few minutes of oggling the massive casting costs and strange abilities trying to uncover new things, like how to add Annihilator to a Goblin, I started thinking that as combos go these guys aren't that great. 

There are a couple of cards that go great for mill deck defence with their bring your graveyard back into your library, but as for making an Eldrazi deck I don't think I would be too excited.  The exorborant casting costs and cast only restricted abilities and the idea that they are prone to cards like blue control makes me lean more to a Darksteel Collossus/Tinker artifact deck.

So my question is, how many of you guys actually ran into Eldrazi decks in tournament play?  How much in casual play?  Was there ever a famous Eldrazi deck?  Can you post it up so we can see how good it was?

I've seen some competitive decks with Green White walls. It made Polymorph decks better. They were more of combo guys than serious.
