Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite

Elesh Norn’s Powers’ Design

New 04 Nov 2021 Asked by cicadashelling 48 Comments

Is Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite giving opponents creatures -2\-2 a bend or a break? If neither, where is whites-×\-x abilities these days?


I’ll call it a very strong bend, but not something we plan on doing again.

Reverse Anthems

New 12 Dec 2019 Asked by belteshazzar98 40 Comments

Are "reverse anthems" like Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite and Crovax, Ascendant Hero still in pie for white?


No, those are bleeds for specific set flavor. That’s not normally a white thing. White’s more of a team player.

Dredge Deck Contribution

New 05 Aug 2012 Asked by nyktos 7 Comments

It's hard to send you a Dredge list since Tumblr doesn't allow links and also doesn't give enough room to copypaste the decklist into the question field, but Ando Ferguson made top 8 at GP Indianapolis with a Dredge deck and you can see his list if you look up the coverage.


Cards from that deck that I had a hand in creating: Cephalid Colisseum, Gemstone Mine, Tarnished Citadel, Flayer of the Hatebound, Golgari Grave-Troll, Golgari Thug, Ichorid, Narcomeba, Stinkweed Imp, Breakthrough, Bridge from Below, Cabal Therapy, Dread Return, Faithless Looting, Lion’s Eye Diamond, Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite, Iona, Shield of Emeria. You’ll also notice that about 90+% of the cards come from sets I lead.
