New Garruk looks amazing...until I got to the 2 colorless 3 green mana cost  I mean at worst he makes a 3/3 or 2 and draws you at least 3 cards. For lazy people: 3 Loyalty +1 - Make a 3/3 Beast token -3 - Draw cards = the highest power among your creatures -6 - Make a 6/6 for every land you control. | ||

He's probably only playable in mono-green but your opponent can't, realistically, let him stay on the board for more than 1 or 2 turns, I would think. | ||

Edit: I do like the new chandra alot more of the 3 remade dudes. Her minus 2 is just silly for decks that can cast alot of spells. Her minus 2 + geosurge = Emerakul Turn 5. | ||

Comes down turn 3 or 4 because you're playing green and makes a blocker to protect himself. Edit: I do like the new chandra alot more of the 3 remade dudes.

Even crazier in M12...Quicksilver amulet, colorless version of Emrakul uncounterable on turn 5 | ||

turn 1 (1 mana) play forest, tap forest (2 mana), cobra (0) turn 2 play fetch (1), tap forest (2), cobra #2 (0), break fetch (2), explore (0), fetch (2), break fetch (4), tap new forest (5), Garruk 2.0. IT COULD HAPPEN addendum: turn 3 opponent plays Deceiver Exarch on your end step then untaps and Splinter Twins and you lose =[ | ||

So its effect isn't a spell - you aren't casting it, so your opponent can't use a counterspell against it. So no, Emrakul's "uncounterable" ability isn't actually coming into play but it's still, effectively, uncounterable. Unless you mean the "take an extra turn" thing. Then, yes. You wouldn't get that benefit. | ||

You'll have seen 9 cards if you're on the draw so it isn't very likely. I was thinking more of playing JunkWalkers just because GWx seems really strong right now. Testing this list currently. 4 Cobra 4 Primeval Titan 2 Mirran Crusader 1 BSA 1 Thrun 4 Birds 1 Emerakul 1 Iona 1 Emeria Angel 19 dudes 3 Garruk 2.0 2 Elspeth 2.0 2 Gideon 7 Walkers 4 Explore 3 Summoning Trap 3 Beast Within (prolly more, lack of removal sucks even if fast.) 10 Instant/Sorc 2 WB Fetch 2 GU Fetch 2 GB fetch 2 WR fetch 8 Forest 8 Plains 24 Lands Fauna Shaman prolly goes in here somewhere, as well as Vengevine, but Its alot of space to devote, even if VV = 4 cards after casting 2. | ||
