Game Plan

The question on everybody's mind is, "Will Elesh Norn do anything in standard?" and that's what we'd like to find out in our video!

As of right now, Mono White seems like the perfect home for her. I think she's an okay threat but right now, she just doesn't have many "enter the battlefield" effects to make her scary yet, but it is sweet being able to draw two cards when you play a Spirited Companion. The best thing we can be doubling is probably Loran of the Third Path as there are a ton of artifacts and enchantments running around right now. Mono White's best new toy is actually The Eternal Wanderer!  That card has definitely impressed me and will probably be in whatever shells have Elesh Norn as the Emperor is also able to help us blink things. This also includes my opponent's tokens!

But as of right now, Elesh Norn seems more like a Commander card and not so much a standard card. Maybe I'm wrong and maybe there's a sweet brew out there for her. But for now, I just don't see her taking over standard like Sheoldred.

Thanks for watching the content.
