I hate Emrakul.
Not cause he's big, or broken, or scary in anyway. Not even because he hoses mill.
I hate Emrakul because he's bigger than Progenitus ;~;

I started playing magic just before RotE came out, but I've had amazing luck with booster packs. The first two I ever opened had Emrakul and Kozilek, Butcher of Truth. My first Shards pack had Elspeth, Knight-Errant, my first Scars pack had Lux Cannon, my first Innistrad pack had Reaper from the Abyss, and my first M12 pack had Jace V3.0... :D
@AvatarofBro
According to you, CMC is no longer a drawback? So everything should just be 
to play because you can cheat it out? There is really only one card that will never be cheated out. But it still CAN be...

So I'm just wondering if I were playing against my friend's Eldrazi deck and I played a Phyrexian Ingester could I use the Imprint ability on Emrakul? Also I'm new to commenting on this site so I don't know how to link a card through its name but here is the link to Phyrexian Ingester:

No, cmc matters. Decks that cheat Emrakul out are built to do it. (Show and Tell, the aforementioned Elvish Piper or Defense of the Heart) That's why it's cmc doesn't matter.

This is the most Timmy of all cards. I don't find much interest in playing him, but I have a lot of friends who love to do so. Its a bit of a pain for my mill deck for obvious reasons, but thats about it. If he is snuck out I can usually get him dead, and if you ramped up the 15 mana to hard cast him then I was probably dead anyway.
That said, yes, he is a mighty finisher. Pro points if you use Lightning Mauler with him or Sneak him out with suspend or Fist of Suns and still get the 'cast' bonuses.
Also it is bad when your foil prerelease art is so bad it is noticably cheaper than your normal printing.

Nope, emrakul says otherwise. you dont believe me? here, read this. I'm sorry, i've had 50 turns in a row and i have 5 cards left in my library, all my creatures out... you can go now, I didn't meen to take so long. Oh thts cute, you've been waiting all this time to play your Serra Angel? Im sure she will change the outcome...

I'm so tired of people thinking that others cards have effect on this creature, it is pro colour, which means you cant mind control it, destroy, bounce, or exile it with anything that isn't stated as colourless, or an artifact. such things as Dominating Licid can not take control of it, you can't O ring it. in short to deal with him you'll need to Voidstone Gargoyle him to stop him from entering the battlefield, but once there, you need to mass wipe him.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
Thank you.
Also, is annihilator an activated ability? (activated by attacking?) if so does that mean i could pithing needle him?
