OR
turn 1 -- forest, llanowar elves
turn 2 -- ancient tomb, tap everything play quicksilver amulet/elvish piper
turn 3 -- tap 4 (if you played the amulet) play emrakul, or tap 1 green (if you played elvish piper) play emrakul
OR
turn 1 -- forest, reveal chancelor of the tangle, play channel for 4, put quicksilver amulet into play
turn 2 -- forest, play channel again for 4, tap the amulet put emrakul into play (if you draw emrakul or want to lose less life)
OR
turn 1 -- forest, reaveal chancelor of the tangle, play fauna shaman
turn 2 -- forest, tap fauna shaman get emrakul (when i play tested i had 2 chancelors o' the tangle in my first hand), if you draw a lotus petal or have it in your opening hand then channel for 15 and play emrakul
turn 3 -- channel for 15 play emrakul
OR
turn 1 -- ancient tomb, lotus petal
turn 2 -- forest, play elvish piper
turn 3 -- you guessed it! emrakul!!
The other eldrazi are in there cause they are also big and other creatures that go along with emrakul

The sideboard is other ways to get emrakul out that i couldnt fit or wouldnt really work o ya and black lotus lol

Deck discussion for turn 1-5 emrakul playing

Llanowar elves produce man's and only cost 1 to cast. They can speed up elvish piper coming out.

Try elvish visionary and vigor. With visionary you draw a card and vigor let's your creatures not take damage at all.

Sylvan tutor would be good too. I'm just trying to give cards that will help your deck when you get it up to a standard 60 card deck

Except for the part where Channel is banned in all formats, this deck is glorious.

Add the land Gaea's Cradle and add things like awakening zone/growthspasm etc etc, also Ashnod's Altar sac creatures for 2 mana, if you play a land every turn and get a decent amount of elderazi/creatures out you can tap Gaea's cradle for 4-8 mana and sac all your creatures for the remaining mana. Also Gurruk to untap lands and the urzas land set Tower Mine and Powerplant

I thought so, but you're still only allowed 1, because if there were no restrictions it would be impossible not to create a turn 1 kill. The game need rules to work.

But OK I understand this is just for fun, I just don't see the point/challenge of building illegal decks :P

ya lol no one will notice that there is no card and then when you say "Hey look a unicorn!' they turn around and you put a emrakul onto the table

It's the most efficient way. And while you're at it, attach a Hedron Matrix on him.

Hi jabe480,

Easy way to get Emrakul out on turn 1

Lay down Ancient Tomb and Lotus Petal tap them and play Show and Tell
If you have a really great hand you can put into play

Emrakul, the Aeons Torn + Lightning Greaves + Standstill

See my Torpor Dreadnought Deck if you'd like details on how the deck might be built

You should consider switching some lands out for "Cloudposts" (lands that give you a colorless mana per locus in play and Cloudpost is a locus)

with 2 cloudpost out you can generate 4 colorless mana
3 - 9 mana
4 - 16 mana.

i suggest replacing Emrakul with another big ass creature. he's alot better when you can cast him into play. you dont get his amazing abilitiy by cheating him in :(

If you could play blue!! Turn 1: play island and sol ring. Turn 2: play any land, and tap Island and sol ring, then then play tinker and sack your sol ring. Out comes Emrakul.
