Thanks for all the decklists.
Do you know, how many games were won with the Emperion?
You're welcome.
I do remember most of it. I played against:
1st round - Izzet Mirror - 1:1
Emperion played a role in g2 bc my opponent bribed it and I needed to Flame Slash + Skred it in order to win
2nd round - Naya Aggro - 2:0
Emperion wasn't around this time.
3rd round - 4c TwinControl - 2:1
I lost g1 after Ruination against a racing TNN because my opponent was able to assemble two lands + Remand, Negate and Chain of Vapor against me struggling to find red mana for my Madcap Experiment.
4th round - 4c Blood - 2:1
There was a strange situation where I controlled my opponent's Saskia and couldn't attack without doming myself. I tutored up Emperion and went in.
5th round - Jeskai Twin - 2:0
No Emperion. Just Moon.
6th round - 4c Blood - 2:1
The Emperor was instrumental to win g3 because he held back a 5/6 Tasigur with me on 5 life and attacked for lethal soon after.
I believe I hardcast the Golem one additional time and madcapped it on another occassion. But I can't excactly remember in which games.
I didn't even play against RDW, where Emperion shines the most.
Looking forward, I'm pretty sure Emperion is the way to go for Izzet.
