Ugin, Eye of the Storms
He has always been the colorless answer to color, and every incarnation of him has been a hard-line hoser dressed up as a planeswalker. This one narrows the mechanism and doubles down on the trigger. The exile clause is stapled to a cast-condition rather than an activated ability: it fires when you cast Ugin himself, and again every time you cast a colorless spell afterward, turning a deck built around colorless payoffs into a machine that quietly deletes a colored permanent on the way to the stack. That reframes what the card is doing. Earlier Ugin planeswalkers punished color with a single mass sweep and then defended themselves; here the removal is ongoing, incidental, and free, folded into a game plan you were already running. The plus keeps him alive while filling your hand, the zero ramps into more colorless spells (which feed the exile trigger right back), and the ultimate is a colorless-only free-cast tutor that rewards a deck already committed to the eldrazi-and-artifacts axis. What gives the card its shape is the asymmetry baked into that trigger: Ugin's own effect is toothless against a mono-colorless opponent and merciless against everyone else, which has always been the point of the character. He is the plane's immune response to color, and this build makes that response continuous instead of a single detonation.
