Emmara is like the worst parts of Legends and Homelands got pregnant, aborted the fetus, tossed it in the trashcan, set it on fire and wrapped the corpse in a Dragon's Maze pack wrapper.
It's not terrible, a 10 mana sweeper with a bit of downside for you, but much more so for your opponents. Tapped creatures is much less tempo loss than a wrathed field, and it will be relevant late game where it will be played.
Another good black creature, perfect for big mana. I like that it has a downside too, so not completely broken, which is very rare in card design for black.
I also play Weiss Schwarz, Chaos, Vanguard and Wixoss.
Weiss Schwarz Sets
Accel World, Angel Beats, Familiar of Zero, Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet, Guilty Crown, Kill La Kill, Robotics;Notes, Sword Art Online.
Chaos Partners
Arpeggio of Blue Steel: Iona, Kirishima, Kongou.
Dangan Ronpa: Asahina, Togami.
Freezing: Vibration: Chiffon, Satelizer.
Vanguard Clans Favoured
Angel Feather, Dark Irregulars, Genesis, Neonecter, Pale Moon, Shadow Paladins, Tachikaze.
One sided Wrath AND an 8/8? Well, the question will be is it better than Phyrexian Rebirth. You keep your creatures, but Rebirth is much keeper. And you have to cast this. Hmmm, will need to play to decide.
As much as I love mutilation, board sweepers and cards that make things die... this just isn't doing it for me.
Way to expensive, no flash, evasion, or protection and it gives you a pretty adverse affect to boot.
That's not to say it doesn't have its uses, I'm just not too fond of it.

Brian Tinsman, Set Designer can only be cast during the third set of a block.
When Brian Tinsman, Set Designer enters the battlefield, ignore all flavor and mechanics of the first two sets in the block. "Ok so what do we have here... gothic horror? Scrap it. Expand the Devine Vs. Demonic duel deck to 244 cards and print it!"

I like seeing more sweepers for black. 10 mana isn't too much for any decent mono-back deck, and I probably wouldn't play it in anything else just because there are cheaper options in other colors.
Most big mana Black runs Winding Canyons. Flash him in (for 12), and kill EVERY player's creatures. Pretty strong. Plague Wind doesn't leave behind a 8/8.

I don't know what a "Cacodemon" is, but I know what destroying all of my opponent's creatures is.

Its just plague wind except your creatures can't go to town attacking after to cast it. But you get an 8/8 to make up for it.
Overall I think this card will be an easy cut to make from heavenly inferno to add extra

Smile your day could be worse, so I did smile and it was worse.
Meh. I've heard cacodemon before, I think in Final Fantasy.
The card is better than Plague Wind generally, I think? I mean, considering you can play it after you attack, it's basically a free 8/8 attached to a spell that's already powerful in EDH.

The decks in their pre-built form are pretty weak to start with. I think this is one of few card advantage generators. Just add more mana ramp and Reiver Demon to help the theme and this guy is good.

And it doesn't look anything like a cacodemon. They should have made it a floating head.

Oh yeah, Winding Canyons is great late game, I used to play it.
And it would just be brutal combined with this card.
