Title: Oblivion Emrakul?
Post by: Mlerner12 on December 11, 2013, 03:14:44 PM
I already know the answer but my friends won't listen, so I need Kaleo or another judge guy to help with an official ruling: can you {Oblion Ring} {Emracool, the Aeons Torn}?

Does ruling 6/15/2010 take care of this?

You can oblivion ring Emrakul. O-ring does not target anything until it hits the field. At this point, it is no longer a spell (its a permanent), so Emrakul's protection won't save him.

It sure does. ETB abilities mean it's already resolved, and is a permanent now and no longer a spell.
