And then he followed False Prophet over a cliff and it all went a bit pear-shaped from there.

Emrakul... how thou art loathed. It seems like if you're playing in casual environments (ie. kitchen table Magic), having Emrakul as a win condition is a very risky move. It's probably due to the sheer card advantage it provides, tacked onto an enormous evasive, tough to remove creature. With pseudo-haste if you hard cast it, it asks for an instant speed answer, but also limits what you can answer it with due to its protection. So I can certainly understand people's frustration with the big guy in casual decks...

... but on the other hand, in any format, if you allow your opponent to ramp to 15 mana and haven't won by that point, you probably deserve to lose. Heck, these days for 7 mana you can use a Diabolic Revelation to pick up any 2 cards in your deck - which means you can easily pick up 2 cards that form an infinite combo.

@knight3607: As Phyrexian Ingester enters the battlefield, it is a permanent and no longer a spell. Emrakul will not have protection from it.

@SteamyRayvon6969: You don't get the extra turn with a quicksilver amulet (or with show and tell, elvish piper, aether vial etc). It specifically says when you CAST it. You CAST it with either of the following:
* 15 mana
* Omniscience

@kolition: Protection from colored SPELLS. A card is a SPELL once you cast it. Once the SPELL resolves it becomes a PERMANENT. When the card is on the board it is a PERMANENT. Emrakul has no protection from permanents. Oblivion Ring's triggered ability affects Emrakul because Oblivion Ring is a permanent (since its ability is triggered by its entering the battlefield, which means Oblivion Ring has resolved and is no longer a spell). Dominating Licid affects Emrakul because it is an activate... (see all)
