    How it works

    Steps

    Yavimaya causes all lands to be Forests in addition to their other types, thus Life and Limb causes all lands to be 1/1 Saproling creatures. Because Elesh Norn gives all creatures your opponents control -2/-2, they die as a state-based action due to having less than zero toughness. Whenever an opponent plays a land, it will also die as a state-based action.
