Let's get weird.

I love squirrels, and there's nothing I love more than an adorable squirrel running up to me in the wild. Aww, look at the little guy! He's so cute--CHOMP-- OW! Wait a minute... Is that... Is that foam frothing at his mouth? Does this squirrel have some sort of... Infectious disease? Well, this isn't good, but there's only one of--

Oh. Oh no. What's that horrific snot-web looking creature over there up to? Why is there a horde of squirrels following in his wake?!

Oh hi, didn't see you there! Welcome to my attempt to build a Yarok squirrel infect deck! Do I know what I'm doing? No, I just started playing Magic two years ago. Are there possibly more efficient ways to build an infect deck than going squirrel-themed? Yes, but there wouldn't be as many squirrels, so why would anyone want that?

Look, this deck's got everything! - a casual Sultai staple base - infectious & dastardly ETB effects for Yarok-doubling delight - squirrels - more squirrels - ways to make lots of squirrels - the classic Earthcraft + Squirrel Nest combo for INFINITE squirrels

I'm not gonna say this is perfect. But I will say I playtested this with my casual group and beat a very well-tuned Yuriko deck with only 5 sweet baby squirrel tokens + Triumph of the Hordes, and there isn't anything more satisfying than watching your meta's most feared deck fall victim to a pesky case of rabies!

If you love squirrels and throwing salt in infected wounds, I welcome your suggestions on how I can make this deck meaner and more Squirrely.
