Contest - Death to Eldrazi! - See the rewards!
Playtesters for Battle for Zendikar are already confirming the worst. Eldrazi decks, again, are stupidly overpowered, winning most games and not fun to play against.
So let's do something about it. I want to see cards specifically designed to stop, hurt, kill, prevent or otherwise mess with Eldrazi. Example: http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/multiplanar-cleansing?list=user
Rules:
1) You can have up to three submissions.
2) Your submission can be any card type as long as it isn't Eldrazi.
3) You submission must in some way hinder Eldrazi or Eldrazi decks.
Cards will be judged based on cleverness, usefulness, balance and overall coolness.
Rewards:
1st Place - A custom card designed by me that meets any of your specifications or any of the other rewards. You will also get a legendary angel, demon or human named after you in the set I am currently working on.
2nd Place - A custom card designed by me to compliment/synergize with your personal favorite card from your own collection or the 3rd place reward.
3rd Place - A custom card designed by me for your favorite tribe/deck type.
Important!
If more than 40 cardsmiths submit entries to this contest, I will add paying for a year of the $5/month level Patreon rewards for you to the first place prize! This means you get lots of cool bonuses for your account like expanded capacity, no ads and the ability to add anyone's cards to one of your sets. See the full details here: https://www.patreon.com/mtgcardsmith?ty=h
End Date
The last day for submissions will be October 23rd. Winners will be announced within 2-3 days of the contest ending.
Get crafting and spread the word!

Thought I'd make a shout-out to "The Teeth of Akoum", and Sorin's Rotspeak seemed neat.
EDIT: Made a slight change.

Purposefully made to work well with Eye of Doom.

Here's mine.
Quiet Dawn is more of a spell that rewards you for already keeping the eldrazi in check

Send to Eternity is made specifically to deal with those titans
http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/send-to-eternity
and Planar Hole is a bit of a hoser against all creature strategies, but I'm sure you can see how playing eldrazi fatties could instantly kill you (see: Desolation Twin)

I'm currently 3-0 against Eldrazi decks with RW Allies in Limited. Still, I could use all the help I can get...

And if you really don't like the Eldrazi, call these three to have those abominations locked up again

Sorin's absolute:
http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/sorins-absolute
Backstory: Aelmer was doing his monthly harvest on the plane of Zendikar when a shattering boom rattled the plane. Suddenly a shadow blocked out the Sun as the titan Kozilek stood up and looked over the plane he was soon going to destroy. Even the plane of Theros could hear the ear shattering boom Kozilek escaping his prison. Heliod was the god elected to go investigate the roar that had come from Zendikar. Once Heliod arrived, he saw the destruction the Eldrazi were causing and decided to put the fate of the plane in the humans hands. Heliod saw a bright and brave soul that happened to be Aelmer. He made Aelmer his champion and gave him the equipment he needed to slay Kozilek. Aelmer's courage grew to the point where he had to try and stop Kozilek. Aelmer slew Kozilek and moved on to minor Eldrazi until he was called by Gideon to help slay Ulamog.
Here he is:
