I personally think that this card is proof that R&D does a very good job of testing absolutely everything they produce. Going through the comments, you'll see so many people complaining about how broken and over-powered this is, but in reality it is, while a very good card, isn't even format defining in Standard.

You: I'm about to serve some major win.
Opponent: What could you possibly do to me with five mana?
You: I tap four lands for green mana, play Elvish Piper, equip Lightning Greaves, tap my remaining forest to use Piper's special ability, put Emrakul onto the battlefield, equip Emrakul with Lightning Greaves, attack you for 15 in the air with annihilator 6.
Opponent: !!!!!!!!!!

Moonlace. Saved my ass sooo many times and it would work just dandy on this. Just use a clone on it or any kind of counterspells. Make those colorless and you get to rape a big spaghetti flying monster. Doesnt look like it but moonlace is a great backup card to keep at least ionce in any blue or part blue deck

Far as i remember, the best way to stop her when cast is Time Stop, since it will remove both her and her ability from the game, next best thing would be mindbreak trap even thought they'd still get the extra turn.
@Madscorpion:
Note the "Can't be countered" in the textbox, and you don't need moonlace to clone her...
For anyone else who might not have thought about it, you can still cheat her into play from the grave if you have good timing... or a stifle...
that's usually what i do,
Turn 1 Island,
Turn 2 Swamp, Entomb Emrakul, Stifle her shuffling ability
Turn 3 Land, Animate Dead, OR dark rit into Dody Double (so you can keep a copy dead)
you could also cast the dark rit on turn 2 to get her out since animate dead costs 2. (AKA 4 mana emrakul)
it's funny though... no one seemed to mention that Ulamog can blow her up if she did happen to hit play :D
... (see all)

Annihilator 6... for when you want less friends to play magic against.
And the design, these Eldrazi look like something from a bad science fiction movie, come on!
Summoning trap just got even more annoying.
