Selene Horseman of Famine & En Sabah Nur Bonus Challenge Guide

Curious how the latest release has fared? Looking for ideas to complete the weekend missions? You've come to the right place!

The OTA was supposed to help both Selene, Horseman of Famine and En Sabah Nur. It did not give them more power, but the update was clearly geared towards supporting the Rock synergy, and improving the survivability of cheap cards. Looking at both card’s metrics following the OTA, it seems like the plan didn’t work at all.

There is a Rock deck with good results, but that list is using neither Selene, Horseman of Famine, nor En Sabah Nur. Ironically, we find the nerfed Gambit, Horseman of Death in that build. Otherwise, the archetypes with the best results are Destroy, the counter pick against Rocks, Shou-Lao activates, and Galactus Ramp.

We are just a day removed from the update, so the metagame still is in testing mode. Yet, it looks like the community is busy playing proven synergies, rather than fine tuning a deck around the OTA’s recommendations.

En Sabah Nur Performance

Post-OTA, Infinite Rank

We are not even 24h removed from the OTA when I write this piece, but it looks like it’s been a brutal update for En Sabah Nur. The card itself was not changed, nor the usual archetypes it is part of, such as Thanos or High Power Summons. I had a look at the data, and those builds are still doing fine, so the issue must be elsewhere. The only archetype En Sabah Nur can be associated with from the OTA is the Hammer Time deck, which has been posting very lackluster results so far.

As a result, these catastrophic metrics over the past day might be due to En Sabah Nur joining the recently buffed archetype, which unfortunately still is not strong enough to be a competitor.

It is not looking great for the new 4-cost so far. Indeed, not only Selene, Horseman of Famine has failed to become a staple in decks based on No Ability cards, she also does not seem to improve these decks when part of the mix.

Overall, Rock decks are struggling to get going, often loaded with disruptive or protective tools in order to help with the volatility of that gameplay. In that context, Selene, Horseman of Famine doesn’t seem to help much, as she might represent a lot of points, she is not a reason to snap, neither because your points are safe, nor because you opponent development is endangered.

Bonus Challenge Decks

If we look at the best performing list for archetypes, we will rarely find Selene, Horseman of Famine or En Sabah Nur included in the mix. However, because both cards synergize with no ability tokens, it is fairly simple to include either in a deck with the other already present for the sake of completing our missions faster. You might struggle a bit if you want to also include other 4-cost cards on top.

Here are the best performing lists with either card, alongside an On Reveal build currently running both.
