About Thorn Elemental

Thorn Elemental, Creature — elemental, designed by rk post first released in May, 2020 in the set Urza's Destiny and was printed exactly in 9 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of € 0.03.

A deck that focuses on aggressive strategies and wants to deal damage quickly would benefit from including Thorn Elemental, as its ability to assign combat damage as though it weren't blocked can help push through damage and close out games. However, in a competitive setting, there are better options available such as Carnage Tyrant, which offers hexproof and trample for a similar mana cost, making it a more resilient and impactful threat that sees more play in decks looking for a powerful finisher.

Rules

27/04/18

If blocked by a creature with banding, the defending player decides whether or not the damage is assigned “as though it weren’t blocked”.

27/04/18

You can decide to assign damage to the defending player or planeswalker even if the blocking creature has protection from green or damage preventing effects on it.
