Kozilek, Butcher of Truth, Legendary creature — eldrazi, designed by Michael Komarck first released in Apr, 2010 in the set Rise of the Eldrazi and was printed exactly in 10 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's a key card in 12 combos.
A deck that focuses on ramping up to 10 mana quickly and capitalizing on card advantage would benefit from including Kozilek, Butcher of Truth. While its high mana cost can be a drawback, the immediate card draw upon casting can provide a significant advantage. However, there are other Eldrazi cards like Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre or Emrakul, the Aeons Torn that may offer more immediate impact or win conditions, making them potentially better choices depending on the deck strategy. Kozilek, Butcher of Truth could still see play in certain ramp-heavy or control decks looking for card advantage and a resilient threat.

Kozilek’s first ability triggers as you cast it, and that ability resolves before the spell itself. It resolves even if the spell is countered.

Annihilator abilities trigger and resolve during the declare attackers step. The defending player chooses and sacrifices the required number of permanents before they declare blockers. Any creatures sacrificed this way won’t be able to block.
