Use Nicol bolas, planeswalker -2 loyalty counters abilitie, which is you control target creature, on emrakul, and then you own so much.also, it that betrays is a good card to play with this. or, you can play two silverskin armorand aindomidable archangel, attach the ailverskin armour to each, and emrakul will have shroud. also , urabrask the hidden is a good card to play before having emrakul out, giving him haste.

Attention: If you have a Elvish Piper, Polymorph, Joihra of the Ghitu, or any similar deck:
There is no reason not to replace your huge creature in those decks with this one. Even without time walking, this card beats more face than any other creature in the game.

It ISNT allowed. First of all, Emrakul has protection from coloured spells, phyrexian metamorph is a coloured spell.
But lets say you make the spell colourless with something like Ersatz Gnomes, Moonlace, or Mycosynth Lattice. you still have to deal with the fact that Emrakul is Legendary, meaning as soon as you got that second one in they would both die as a state-based effect. You would still get your extra turn though.

@ EternalPhi
necava was wrong but you're actually more wrong. Metamorph doesn't target protection stops targeting, damaging enchanting and blocking, metamorph does no of those when you cast it, you can copy him just fine and they will both die. Also, there is no possible way to "copy" Emrakul's extra turn ability, it happens when he's cast, you can't copy that. Finally if metamorph did target, moonlace and Ersatz Gnomes would not be able to bypass the protection because the colored spell can't even target him. Don't correct people if you don't know what you're saying.

Emrakul is banned in commander, sorry man.

Though Emrakul is on the unofficial banned list (as a casual only format there is no official banned list), it is possible to build a completely colorless Commander deck. Karn, Silver Golem is a more popular choice for this, because you will have to invest HEAVILY in artifact mana, and Karn + lots of artifacts is a winning strategy itself.
You can try building a deck with Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre or Kozilek, Butcher of Truth instead, but be prepared to shill out a lot of money tracking down the expensive colorless mana sources you'll need to run such a deck. I wouldn't recommend it unless you already have most of the oldschool colorless lands.

Um...in standard, Spine of Ish Sah and Geth's Verdict, I can't think of any other slightly direct ways of getting rid of him short of another sac method. Out of standard here is a fun one, Painter's Servant then All is Dust followed by gloating. Also, I would love to chump Emrakul after sacrificing everything but maybe the blocker and one black mana and then play Innocent Blood, kill one of the biggest baddies with one mana on the field :P

Is this legal in commander. The gatherer says it is, but I have people tell me he is banned.
