Not unless those enchantments had flash.  Was Elesh hits the board anything 2/2 or less dies on your side.

T2, white or green...
😳 Wow, cool! How was Elesh out in turn 2?Or did I miss read something?

You could drop a {Spirit Mantle} on one of your tokens?

Edit: oh wait, Elesh's -2/-2 isnt an ability, it's 'something that is true' about creatures, so the Mantle is useless. Sorry Bernardcs! 😔

T2 = standard, not 2nd turn...
So, speed is the key in this case...

What about {Spellskite}?

He lives since he has 4 toughness, but is not going to help save your tokens from Elesh....the only way is to counter Elesh or have your tokens toughness above 2 🔨

Honestly, Elesh Norn comes out on turn 7. If you haven't killed your opponent by then then you're probably losing.

What if you made a {heartless summoning} deck w elesh??? sounds fun

Come on Proph you can cheat Elesh out b4 that.  Maybe not standard but:
T1 {dark ritual}, {entomb}, {animate dead}

Validan

{Thraben doomsayer} and lower your life total to proc his ability to negate elesh norn's ability there's also another creature. Also there's {village ironwright} who would buff your guys high enough, to get your life total that low you can use {hex parasite} or something but oblivion ring that elesh norn the second you can
