I think you missed the part on Emrakul's card that says "Protection from colored spells". The only things that could remove him post-casting would be something artifact based or board sweep, but even with those around you will still get your extra turn with which to ruin with Emrakul or to win with whatever else you've got.

Yes Lordcapulet. Missed the "Can't be targeted by coloured spells. BUT. Spells are only spells on the stack. This means that Be it an enchantment, creature or artifact, it is not a spell once it hits the battlefield. That was the controversey over Mindbreak Trap. It looked good, but it was only good for storm. And storm isnt standard.

"Your seas are not safe from my wrath."
-Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre
Ulamog is the Bowie knife to the meat cleaver of Kozilek, Butcher of Truth and the enormous Swiss Army Knife of Emrakul, the Aeons Torn. It it less multipurpose thanb the Swiss but more versatile than the meat cleaver. Ulamog is a counter-permanent agent, first and foremost. He can eliminate pieces in combo latticeworks, pick off creatures that are giving you a hard time, take out board enchancers, eliminate problematic artifacts, or even lay waste to an enabling land.

This creature imo is better than the other 2 eldrazi titans. Emrakul is awesome, but its 15 mana, and there are ways around colored protection. Kozilek is interesting, but maybe no more so than some of the other eldrazi.
Ulamog on the other hand.. is indestructible, efficiently costed for an eldrazi, and has a built in destroy while still making mill useless. Just awesome. If I had to choose I'd go with ulamog for sure.

My friend was on the receiving end of this guy at the prerelease.
ON TURN FIVE.
He did not win that game...

@ongck : Ulamog looks like it's flexing its muscles in a victory stance after having killed an opposing Emrakul :P
This card is really awesome, but I don't think you need me to tell you that. Apart from being enormous like the other 2 Eldrazi progenitors, his indestructibility really helps him deal with large threats (and renders him immune to Smite), and the Vindicate ability allows him to quickly take down immediate threats, meaning you won't have to attack with him and wait for his annihalator ability to take care of things. Actually, one of the best things about him is probably his Vindicate ability, since it allows him to actually deal with Emrakul, the Aeons Torn.

I like this eldrazi the most. I opened one in limited and it was so much fun.

Probably the best art out of the three Eldrazi titans. Kozilek looks way too CG, imo. I think Ulamog is the best Eldrazi, simply because he's a Vindicate on a stick, is aggressively costed, and is indestructible.
