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.
A deck that focuses on aggressive strategies and wants to push through damage quickly would benefit from including Thorn Elemental, as it can deal damage as though it weren't blocked, potentially bypassing opposing creatures. However, there are other cards like Pelakka Wurm or Avenger of Zendikar that offer additional value or impact the board in a more significant way, making them potentially better choices depending on the deck's strategy. Thorn Elemental could see play in certain decks looking for a strong finisher, but its effectiveness may vary depending on the overall game plan.
