in most of my games the 1v1ish nature of the format made it really lopsided depending on the Generals' deck composition and they'd get knocked out before the Emperor could solitare off too much, often games were actually too fast and people were knocked out before they felt like they could do anything.
I brewed it a bit to try to make it a bit more fun/less stompy based on bad matchups, turning it more into a 2.5 headed Giant. Since the games are shorter overall you can actually play to "win" instead of the "I don't want to be the bad guy because I immediately get focused" that can often happen in big pods.
Maybe try it out and let me know, I'm trying to make the format feel a bit more polished since my playgroup has gotten bigger.
