Kudo, King Among Bears + Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite

Kudo, King Among Bears

Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite

How it works

1. Kudo causes all creatures to have base power and toughness 2/2.
2. Because Elesh Norn gives creatures your opponents control -2/-2, they will be 0/0 creatures and die as a state-based action due to having zero toughness.
3. This is also true for any creature that enters the battlefield under an opponent's control.

This brutal asymmetric lock centers on the interaction between Kudo, King Among Bears and Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite to instantly wipe out your opponents' boards. Kudo's static ability sets the base power and toughness of all other creatures to 2/2, which immediately exposes any creature your opponents control to Elesh Norn's passive -2/+0 modifier. Because Elesh Norn gives creatures your opponents control -2/-2, their base 2/2 stats are reduced to 0/0, causing them to perish as a state-based action the moment they exist—a devastating fate that applies to both current permanents and anything new that dares enter the battlefield under an opponent's control.
