View Full Version : Emrakul's Rise (Emrakul Reanimator)

For some reason, I decided to play Emrakul in a reanimator deck, and I then READ the card where it says its a Gaea's Blessing. That didn't work out too well.

Now, after a time it hit me that there were cards by the name of Goryo's Vengeance and Shallow Grave. So my plan was to:

Step 1) Entomb an Emrakul
Step 2) Reanimate said Emrakul thanks to either: Goryo or Grave
Step 3) Bash face.

Seems simple enough?

I have a list in the works, but I'm kind of shy at posting it without any help from better deckbuilders than me.

Then we will never know.

However I will break a secret. You need to pull off THE trick twice to win.

Or you can use Makeshift Mannequin to reanimate Emrakul. Do it in response to trigger and you won't have to worry pulling of the trick twice.

I'm pretty sure someone is just making fake user names to irritate people.

You don't want to do that when instead you can sb into Emrakul+SnT by Siding out Exhume and Reanimate, but keep in Entomb for the secret flashback package in the board obv, that way our sb slots can be blanked when they bring in gy hate.

I actually do run Mannequin as a 2-of as a backup plan, I'll post my list later today because now I'm on my phone, and it's hell.

I've tried it on MTGO, and I think I've only won what I've won because of surprise. Hasty Emrakul, bashface.
