Shizuko, Caller of Autumn

Legendary Creature — Snake Shaman

At the beginning of each player's upkeep, that player adds (Green)(Green)(Green) to his or her mana pool. This mana doesn't cause mana burn (which no longer exists). Until end of turn, this mana doesn't empty from that player's mana pool as phases end.

Say I have Shizuko, Caller of Autumn ETB. Does the mana ever get used up after more than two turns? Or is it like an enchantment where it only applies during Shizuko, Caller of Autumn's presence on the battlefield?

So Wheel and Deal immediately comes to mind as do the "Wheel of ___" cards, though I dunno what your budget for this deck is and some cost quite the pretty penny, with Mikokoro, Center of the Sea, Otherworld Atlas, and Walking Archive as other universal draw options. There's Heartbeat of Spring, Mana Flare, Keeper of Progenitus for more mana doublers as well as Eladamri's Vineyard, Magus of the Vineyard, Shizuko, Caller of Autumn, and to a lesser extent Blinkmoth Urn for similar mana gifts with Fertilid not being too far off from that. Finally there's Charmed Griffin and Hunted Wumpus for more free stuff options, though admittedly more restricted than what you already have.

Very nice deck! Really like how it "flows" as I playtest it.

If I may give a few suggestions, I'd say

1. If you are ok with combos (which I guess you are, as you have Umbral Mantle and Leyline of Abundance ) I'd recommend Havoc Festival to go along with the Wound Reflection you have there;

2. I feel like you could take more advantage of Yurlok's ability and run some of those cards in your sideboard, such as Manabarbs and/or Tectonic Instability . Maybe out Banefire (it is a single target spell, could go with Comet Storm instead).

3. Personally, I don't like Shizuko, Caller of Autumn I think that considering that the mana provided doesn't cause mana burn until the end of turn, opponents will have more time/opportunity to find some use to it.

I'm still brainstorming some ideas on a Yurlok deck myself (will certainly make some adjustments considering your deck), but maybe it could give you some further ideas as well https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/yurlok-2021-03-14/

Ok, there are some cards I really don't think are a good choice here:

Braids of Fire literally became as powerful as it is because mana burn was removed. So if you're not planning on donating it to an opponent, I don't think it's a good card for Yurlok. Then, there are multiple cards like Black Vise. These are fine group slug cards, but Yurlok isn't giving opponents big hands. I like the idea of including Quietus Spike. Maybe include more cards of that kind?

Some great cards for Yurlok from Commander legends are Belbe, Corrupted Observer, Horizon Stone and Leyline Tyrant.

Shizuko, Caller of Autumn should actually work with Yurlok, as mana burn isn't an official rules term anymore (Can someone confirm this?).

A card you should try here is Thornbite Staff as a way to untap Yurlok. Also, how about Seedborn Muse for even more untapping? You could flood your opponents with so much mana they don't even know how to spend it.

Haha yes, o m g yes :D I have to say that I really don´t like commander but my group only wants to play that so I made a group hug deck using Selvala, Explorer Returned as my commander. So I play cards like Upwelling, Magus of the Vineyard, Shizuko, Caller of Autumn to give everyone (including me) a ton of mana and play stuff like Curse of the Forsaken and Curse of Vitality on MYSELF so I can see the chaos on the table while people start to either attack me for the life or protect me for all the bonusses I provide. It´s hella fun!

Just for fun I put Helix Pinnacle in my deck but I never played it because I don´t really intend to win, just to have fun watching the others fall into chaos but one match was just hours over hours , nothing happening and I got so pi***d off, that I saved like 120 mana, dropped the Helix and insta-won since I finally wanted it to end!

Everyone was just watching me, jaws dropped while I gathered my cards and said my goodbye´s for the day XD

This is supposed to be a 60-card deck and I am trying to get this to be as close as possible to how it was, even if it means tweaking a few cards.

I played against a deck that I know for a fact had Boldwyr Heavyweights AND Shizuko, Caller of Autumn.

I forgot the WinCon of the deck since all I remember was those two.

Zidantur Thanks for the +1! I'm not quite sure how to build quad-colour decks since there are so many cards to consider, but green has some great political/underrated cards; Fecundity is a great equalizer most of the time (although it benefits an aristocrats deck way more). Dubious Challenge is a card that I never heard of until recently that is surprisingly good, One with Nature is an underrated favourite of mine especially since you can enchant an opponent's creature and reap the benefits. Pattern of Rebirth is another card that I consider underrated, especially if you are planning on playing any creatures like Sakura-Tribe Elder. Permeating Mass is hilarious IMO and it actually really makes your opponents afraid of attacking you (especially with their commander). Marchesa's Smuggler isn't green but it can definitely help get your commander in for damage. You could also run a lot of copy spells like Progenitor Mimic to make the game a bit more interesting. Brooding Saurian is a great political card if you aren't planning on running any steal spells, since most people like keeping their stuff. Dawnstrider is surprisingly underrated, especially since most of the time it simply prevents people from attacking you when they have a lot of power that could go your way. Finally, Hunted Troll is also a surprisingly good card and is on-theme.

If you want to go full-on group hug (which I wouldn't recommend, but is an option), you could go for stuff like Edric, Spymaster of Trest, Hunted Wumpus, Magus of the Vineyard, Shizuko, Caller of Autumn, Tempting Wurm, Veteran Explorer, Dictate of Karametra, Eladamri's Vineyard, Rites of Flourishing, Collective Voyage, New Frontiers or Weird Harvest. I wouldn't recommend these cards since the whole point of this deck was to move away from group hug while still being political, but you can consider them.

If you wanted to go for a non-group hug politics that still involves being nice, you could buff opponents' creatures with the vows (Vow of Flight for example) and double down with Evolutionary Escalation.

Anyways, I could get a lot of other things that you could do but I don't really want to overload you (especially when I'm kind of just wildly suggesting), but the ideas of these cards are good starting points. You honestly could just ignore all of them and go for green ramp and that would be fine as well, since green doesn't really have many "deal" cards. It's probably good to pick a number representing the amount of "silly" cards you want in the deck and stick with that though, since you don't want to go overboard just because you have another colour to work with.

Hope this helps! Sorry for the wall of text lol, but it could be useful
