I love the emperror format for commander and I love playing the emperror.

Here is my continually updated and improved Emperror deck to control opponents and help team mates.

Group hug cards are bigger here than negative cards as three team mates are affected and only two oponents so card draw such as howling mine have more power here in this format.

Timesifter in this format has the interesting ability to lock out the opponent emperor.
