Emrakul is non-black, she was only trying to save us from the true evil, Marit Lage, this whole time!

Woops, my bad. Shows how good I am in remembering cards from ages ago, not quite to say.

Someone in r/edh pointed out a nice combo
Its a cute card.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Now that is some amazing flavour.
This rules. I have no idea what happens if you use it on a Tarmogoyf.

Make a copy of Tree of Perdition and reduce your opponent to 1 life?

Really interesting card. I can't even imagine all of the wacky possibilities.

My guess would be the copy gets P/T overwritten and the body gets the P/T Tarmogoyf had when it was targeted.

In Standard? I'm not sure how, with those mana costs.
Oh yeah, Tarmogoyf's power/toughness setting does act in all zones, doesn't it?

You want a 1/1 Flying, Indestructible with Mill 20 on attack with a 10/10 Zombie?
I'm cackling at this possibilty!

It's a characteristic defining ability so it does apply in all zones. We are talking about the distinction between Layer 7, sublayer A and 7, sublayer B.

You get a white spirit Goyf and a black 0/1 I think

That would only be correct if Tarmogoyf's P/T was 0/1 by default and a seprate ability gave it +1/+1 for each type of card in all graveyards. It's */*+1, which is a number equal to the types of cards in all graveyards at all times. If you have a Goyf in your yard and there's a Bolt, a Thoughtseize and a fetchland in the graveyard, the Goyf in the yard is a 4/5.
t should give you a zombie with whatever the P/T of Tarmogoyf is at the time you cast it.

Yeah, the zombie will have whatever P/T the Goyf had at the time of exile since it's ability functions in all zones, so it will be set to Goyf's last known information.
Not sure about the spirit. My guess is that it's copied ability overrides the 1/1, so it'll act like a normal Goyf.

8 mana + sac makes me think it won't see any real Constructed play. There might be some EDH deck that would love the effect, but when is that not the case for cards like this? Seems strong in Sealed if just to get two more bodies on the table mid to late game.

I'm pretty sure if it repeatedly let you get Ulamogs and Atarkas it would be busted.
I'm betting you that you could totally steal a game or two in a Tier 3 jank deck using this and Ulamog.
It's like EDH.card. Its one of those cards like Assault Formation that someone will make a deck for to win a game here and there at FNM because what it actually does is Johnny enough for people to make the deck.

Well, Soul Separator doesn't require black mana (in fact it doesn't require any colored mana), it grabs from the graveyard instead of the battlefield and doesn't have strings attached like Animate Dead does. Unless I'm missing something it's much easier nowadays to put something into the graveyard instead of cheating it from your hand.
I won't disagree that 8 mana is a high price to pay but the result seems fairly strong. You don't have to pay for that 8 mana all at once though.

okay THIS is now my new favorite
You get a goyf-sized flying spirit and a zombie the size of a goyf at the time you crack it, I think? It's a characteristic-setting ability so the spirit should get it, but CSAs are active in other zones so the "power and toughness" of the goyf at the time you do this is whatever it would be in play.
Flash + Emerge is so good.

The power/toughness setting of the artifact applies in 7B, after the CDA that sets P/T in 7A. It will be a 1/1 Spirit and a Zombie that's the size of whatever Goyf was at the time you used the ability. The zombie will gain the additional P/T from Soul Separator if there wasn't an artifact in the graveyard at the time you used the ability.

They were a lot cooler when the borders were larger so they looked a lot more unusual.

Neat, there's a flash emerge creature after all. And tentacles + tentacles = more fun, but tapping only four permanents apparently.
Given the card Emrakul's Influence, I wonder if emerge will just be a green/blue thing.
