For those reading this: I have a bad feeling about this

Norin the Wary may seem like a coward, but in this deck, he’s the key to a clever and chaotic strategy. Every time Norin flees the battlefield and returns, you trigger a cascade of powerful effects, from generating tokens to dealing damage, all while frustrating your opponents with his constant comings and goings. This deck thrives on chaos, using Norin’s cowardice to fuel a series of unpredictable, game-changing interactions. Watch as your opponents struggle to keep up with the pandemonium while you build an overwhelming advantage, one Norin-trigger at a time!

Disclaimer: In response Norin the Wary exile himself

Lore

On a plane far, far away, a temporal crisis erupted. In response, Norin exiled himself.

What a coward!

Powerlevel

According to the bracket system, my Norin deck is a 1. While playing, it puts up a good fight against high-power decks, sometimes even forcing them to team up against me. And it still wins regularly. I also feel that the more I play and tweak it, the better it gets. If you were to play it against other bracket 1 decks, I think you'd get a one-sided game. Based on my own power level scale, Norin is definitely a 6.

How i rate my decks:

• Jank (1): a slow, awkward, or unreliable deck, a deck where all creatures have hats on.
• Casual (2-3): a deck not intended for sanctioned tournament use, weaker commanderprecons.
• Focussed (4-5): a fun deck for Friday night magic, your upgraded precon, stronger commanderprecons, deck with theme, budget.
• Optimised (6-7): a good deck for Friday night magic, good synergy, you have a way to win, good interaction, good manabase.
• High power (8-9): A very powerfull deck, you can win fast, you have almost all the good cards, no budget, your missing some cards to make it competitive, you can stop others from winning, powerfull synergy, almost perfect manabase.
• Competetive (10): A deck to win as fast as possible and preventing other from winning, you play the best commanders, you have all the best cards for your deck, your still testing and researching to make your deck better then competitive (11)

Disclaimer: I don't like the bracket system of Wizards of the Coast, so I keep using mine because it gives a better idea of my deck's power. In my opinion, one or two cards cannot change the power level. You need a good pilot, a commander with potential, a strong card synergy, and a lot of testing. But more important is to communicate with your playgroup or the community at your local game store.

How to play and how to win?

Norin exiles himself whenever a spell is cast or a creature attacks, only to return at the end of each turn. This seemingly minor action creates a lot of opportunity for triggering continuous effects. Here's how you build your strategy:

Norin as the Engine: Norin exiles himself constantly, which might seem like a weakness, but your deck is designed to exploit this behavior. Every time Norin leaves and re-enters the battlefield, you can trigger abilities of cards that care about creatures entering or leaving.

Enter the Battlefield (ETB) Triggers: Norin constantly flickers in and out, so cards that have ETB effects are crucial. These effects range from dealing damage, creating tokens, or creating chaos.

Impact Tremors, Purphoros, God of the Forge, ...: Each time Norin re-enters the battlefield, these enchantments deal damage to all your opponents, steadily wearing them down.

Genesis Chamber: Each time Norin returns, you get a free 1/1 Myr token, quickly building up a board of creatures. Permanent-based Triggers: Some cards reward you for creatures entering the battlefield under your control repeatedly.

Confusion in the Ranks: With Norin swapping control of creatures, it creates a chaotic environment that can disrupt your opponents' strategies, allowing you to gain control of key permanents.

The dark side: NORIN OBLITERATE!!! Casting Obliterate while Norin and an ETB enchantment are on the field will give you an evil advantage. But to pull it off, you must join the dark side (P.S. we have cookies).

My Playgroup

These are the players I sit with most often at the table and the "typical" decks they play.

Player 1: Is a master of artifacts. He always builds decks revolving around artifacts, such as Saheeli and Breya. He also has a discard/sacrifice deck led by Tergrid, but he doesn't bring it out very often. His decks are well-built, and I definitely shouldn't underestimate him.

Player 2: This player has extensive knowledge of the game (ex-judge) and can pilot any deck well. He builds a lot of decks (with proxies) and always surprises us with something new. He sometimes netdecks, so there's no specific playstyle, although sacrifice strategies frequently appear.

Player 3: All of his decks are tribal. He has a Merfolk, Vampire, Spiders, and Faeries deck. He always ensures enough control in his decks to avoid board wipes.

Player 4: He has a big budget, so he has access to many cards. He's not great at building or piloting decks, but he loves janky plays, kingsmaking, politics, trashtalk, and jokes during the game. I need to stay focused and prevent alliances from forming with him at the table. He has a large variety of decks: you'll often see tribal, jank, unique, and land-based decks.

Player 5: He's very good at building underdog decks. He often flies under the radar and wins out of nowhere with a combo or by stealing the win from someone who's put in a lot of effort. He enjoys playing with weenies, combos, and the graveyard.

Player 6: He plays on an extreme budget but can pilot a deck very well. He uses cheap and bizarre cards (you can't replicate his style) and always manages to snag a win. He enjoys playing luck-based decks, -1/-1 counters, enchantments, aggro, dragons, etc.

Players 7 and 8: Are new players who are currently using precons from Bloomburrow (Animated Army).

Player 9: He enjoys control and playing in the background. Oloro, Sen Triplets, and Grand Arbiter are decks he enjoys playing. In 1v1 or Two-Headed Giant, he often pulls out his cat deck, which is very strong. He also enjoys experimenting with the color black.
