Not sure why you want that match up. Most Death Battle combatants tend to have "strong" similarities with their opponent. Pharah and Emerald  don't have any meaningful similarities.

To start with, Emeralds Semblance might not work with something obscuring the target's eyes, so Pharah's visor could interrupt or prevent the hallucinations.

Next, I'm pretty sure that Emerald shouldn't be able to pull Pharah down from the skies, without disabling the engines, due to Emerald being lighter, so if she hooks Pharah, the little thief is probably going to go for a very painful ride.

When it comes to damage output, Pharah is definitely superior, and her weapons are pretty good for flushing enemies out of cover or revealing hidden enemies with splash damage and saturation fire.

If Emerald can initiate combat with a pre-emptive first strike by getting in close, she could probably win, but if Pharah can take to the skies, I have trouble seeing Emerald posing much of a threat.
