Whats even better is that the squirrel can stop it from attacking for at least 15 turns.
Im just imagining something like Cthulhu coming out about to destroy the word and a squirrel hurls itself at it…and now it has to wait another year for another go.
So I haven’t played since sixth edition… are squirrels that are ‘tokens’ considered permanents? I seem to recall the squirrels shenanigans involving doubling each turn, so if you had enough to block eldrazi, you could have enough to survive the annihilator as well.
Yes, anything on the battlefield counts as a permanent.
I mean if you have a doubling amount of them, you need enough that you can lose 7 per turn and still recover. So you need at least 7 to begin with, and you could block forever.
The real flaw with the comic is that Emrakul has flying, so squirrels can’t block it anyway, unless you give them all flying.
Really though, it’s meant to be a game-winning card. It does so much that it’s very hard to survive and recover if it’s on the board.

Probably not 15 turns, what with Annihilator 6 quickly wiping out the board.
Im not familiar with what it does. I just saw a 15/15 and 15 1/1s. What does Annihilator do?
When it attacks, the defending player has to sacrifice X permanents, in Emrakul’s case that’s 6.
