Didn’t she defeat Thanos?
And Galactus, and Doctor Doom.

Indeed.
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.
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.
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.
Am I the only one thinking the places should be reversed in the final panel? Otherwise, this is really funny!
Honestly the second text box should be removed. It’s just restating the previous panel
Frankly, if you know enough to understand the joke, you can get rid of every second text box in the comic.
I personally needed to see the squirrels to understand what the implications of the text were. It’s a string of unusual words otherwise.
Squirrel Decks are vicious.
Given the other sorts of things that pass for 1/1 creatures, I’d assume each token either represents a giant squirrel or a swarm of regular-sized ones.
That said, 15/15 does seem a tad low for a world-destroying eldritch horror.
They have annihilator 6 tho which is OP
Fifteen magical squirrels
How did the squirrels get flying?!?
I can think of a couple cards that could accomplish that
Wonder would give all creatures flying when it’s in your graveyard
You could also use Coat of Arms + Abzan falconer to give your army of squirrels a bunch of +1/+1 counters since they’re all the same type. Falconer means that everything with a +1/+1 counter will have flying. Both of these aren’t green though, so you’d need a hybrid deck or some kind.
Eldrazi Monument and Akroma’s memorial would also give flying, and are colorless to boot. Eldrazi monument makes you sacrifice a creature each turn though (not a huge deal with how many squirrels you can get). Akroma’s memorial doesn’t have any downsides, but is 7 mana which is decently expensive.
I’m sure there are other ways but this is what I can think of.
I want to reject any +1/+1 boosts, otherwise we don’t block with 15 squirrels. We use 8.
I otherwise like monument as an answer, though I feel like Emrakul should no longer be surprised.
all thanks to the squirrel totem of course, not the most effective but for sure amusing (inscryption reference)
Everyone knows you can’t block against flying creatures. That’s why my magic deck is a suicide. Blue filled with 1/1 flying creatures and enchantments to make my non-flying creatures flying-creatures. It’s pretty good.
let me introduce you to Elspeth, Sun’s Champion and squirrel catapult
Thats why you have chatterfang
