Thanks, Craeter! This deck was a lot of fun to build! There are probably better ways to use Pandemonium, but I think double Phyrexian Dreadnought is one of the most spectacular :)

Dude I knew that Pandemonium had potential! I ran this card in a super old deck too before I knew squat about deckbuilding. Glad to see you put it to good use and found a Turn 1 win with old blocks to boot! Very impressive

I have a few fun cards that have great synergy with Norin. Maybe interesting to check out? Altar of the Brood, Gimli of the Glittering Caves, Molten Gatekeeper, Vigilante Justice, Witty Roastmaster, Outpost Siege, Pandemonium

Thanks for posting, Craeter. That one is going to require some consideration, so for now I’ll put it in the maybeboard. My initial thought is ‘Pandemonium coupled with the Dash mechanic might be enough to offset the impartial nature of the card, resulting in net gains’…but it might very well prove otherwise. This is one that’ll need testing, for sure. Not that the deck is remotely competitive or anything, but I’d still prefer a vaguely reliable positive gain over a potential catastrophe, ha. Thanks for the suggestion, as always.

My immediate thought for this list is Pandemonium may have a home here, I used to run that card in my old Volcanic Venom deck. It's group hug so you might not be into that, but the repeated Dash drops could benefit. It's pretty similar to Outpost Siege, but deals full creature power damage to any target on ETB. If paired with Warbringer and other big dash baddies that could be GG with a few discounted drops.

Also no idea how, but a copy of Pandemonium also wound up in my deck. Will need to take that out as well.

I was also not sure about Mirror March but I wanted to try it at least one time. Getting more than 1 Utvara Hellkite or Terror of the Peaks is bonkers. Normally I had Gate to the AEther in this spot, which was not strong but leads to the next section:

Gate to the AEther, Guild Feud and Pandemonium are there mostly to make the game more interesting for others too. I add and remove them based on the power level of the playgroup.

Shadowspear is amazing, love the suggestion!

I had a Moonveil Dragon but I never fetched it because I never had more than 3 creatures on board (and if I do I'm often about to win), whereas I often have more than 3 artifacts on board for Hellkite Igniter, and it has helped me get a couple surprise wins.

A Zirilan OG! Your list is 2 years older than mine.

Cut Guild Feud (too situational)

Cut Mirror Match (too random/not a token strategy)

Cut Pandemonium (Terror of the Peaks and Warstorm Surge do it better)

Cut Hellkite Igniter Add Moonveil Dragon

Shadowspear > Basilisk Collar
