The Funny Lizard

The goal of Yurlok of Scorch Thrash is to give everyone a bunch of mana, and then watch them burn and die for it. This is a group slug deck, so it is easy to get hated off the table. But we balance this out by giving everyone a shit ton of mana too. Ideally, this deck is able to utilize the abundance of resources better than our opponents, but it makes sure someone wins quickly which is nice.

Yurlok Things

The major thing here is combos with Yurlok. These take a couple of pieces to pull off, but are almost a guarantee win if you do. (They do all require Yurlok of Scorch Thrash to be on the board)

The first part of the combo is having Yurlok tap for more than {B}{G}{R}, this allows the combo to go infinite and burn our opponents with extra mana:

• Nyxbloom Ancient - This allows us to tap all permanents for TRIPLE mana, this make is absurdly easy to pull off anything in the deck, including this combo.
• Mana Reflection - tap permanents for 2x the mana
• Leyline of Abundance - Creatures tapping for mana add an extra {G} which is just enough

The next part is the ability to untap Yurlock which we do through artifacts.

• Umbral Mantle and Sword of the Paruns both combo with any of the above to give our enemies 8 bajillion mana and burn them to death.
• Staff of Domination -Does not go infinite with Leyline of Abundance as it loses 1 mana in the rotation. But this can still start burning our opponents for some soild damage

Due to our man's being such a threat, we have some inclusions to help protect him and make him faster.

• Swiftfoot Boots, Lightning Greaves - Provide both targeting protection and haste.
• Rhythm of the Wild - haste or just a beefier Yurlok.

The Ramp

The section has ramp for ourselves as well as the group ramp that occurs for everyone. The above cards: Nyxbloom Ancient, Mana Reflection, and Leyline of Abudance are all great personal ramp.

Ramping for ourselves:

• Cultivate, Dig Up, Tempt with Discovery - All help get lands on the battlefield.
• Sol Ring, Arcane Signet - mana rocks, auto include.
• Food Chain - Can get mana if desperate, combos with Squee, the Immortal and Eternal Scourge for Infinite Mana.
• Ignoble Hierarch, Karametra's Acolyte - Creatures that tap for mana.
• Goblin Anarchomancer - Green and Red spells are cheaper to cast

Ramping for the Lord:

• Zhur-Taa Ancient, Dictate of Karametra, Heartbeat of Spring, Manaflare, and Overabundance all double mana generated from lands for all players.
• Magus of the Vineyard - Mainly just 2 burn to others when commander is out.

As a note, we need some instant speed interaction to be able to get rid of any excess mana as it does burn ourselves as well and there are a few permanent options to help with that.

• Kessig Wolf Run, Crawling Barrens, Slimefoot, the Stowaway - Instant speed activated abilities using mana. Reliable mana sinks.
• Leyline Tyrant - Keep unspent red mana, can nuke someone if left unchecked.
• Magus of the Candelabra - Can dump mana to untap lands. This is great to essentially save the mana for later, or increase mana production. If lands are tapping for extra mana and there is a combo artifact out, this can generate infinite mana and win the game without Yurlok at all.
• Horizon Stone - You don't need instant speed interaction if you just don't loose unspent mana...
• Hexdrinker - Protection from everything and a great mana sink.

Big Mana, Big Spells

Now that we have accomplished the Ramp, we need options for all the extra mana we are generating beyond just hoping we burn our opponents first. That is where our lovely {X} costing spells come into play:

• Crackle with Power, Exsanguinate, Roiling Earthquake, Torment of Hailfire - These are all spells that hit all three opponents and will likely give you the W with your mana at this point in the game.
• Helix Pinnacle - This is a secondary option that lets you win on your upkeep if it takes that long.
• Hooded Hydra is here mostly to provide blockers as we do struggle with blockers during the game.

The Slug

This deck does not just focus on burning people with excess mana through Yurlok, but also softens them up to make it easier to win with Yurlok or the {X} cost spells.

• Burning Earth, Citadel of Pain, Manabarbs, Overabundance, Power Surge, Price of Glory, Stoneshaker Shaman. These affect ALL PLAYERS, this includes you, hence the slug.
• Cindervines, Mana Web, War's Toll, Harsh Mentor - These all specifically burn and affect enemies.

Utility

Card Draw and Shit

• Colossal Majesty - Draw a card on upkeep if Yurlok is out. Considering Phyrexian Arena for the guarantee card draw, but given all the self slug life loss may not be it.
• Rites of Flourishing - Everyone gets to draw an additional card hype.
• Setessan Champion and Eidolon of Blossoms - Enchantment=card draw.
• Harmonize, Painful Truths, Read the Bones, Sign in Blood - Just good one time card draw.
• Green Sun's Zenith - Creature search, its good.

Search options for Green Sun's Zenith - Does depend on mana available. *Good options to grab*

• Zhur-Taa Ancient and Nyxbloom Ancient* are mana increases. Which depends on mana available.
• Eidolon of Blossoms* and Setessan Champion are card draw options.
• Magus of the Candelabra*, Slimefoot, the Stowaway, or Leyline Tyrant for mana sinks.
• If there is a Food Chain in hand or on the board then grab Squee, the Immortal or Eternal Scourge for infinite mana
• Punish Others: Stoneshaker Shaman and Zo-Zu the Punisher.
• Ramp Options: Goblin Anarchomancer, Karametra's Acolyte and Ignoble Hierarch. Only if really desperate, should ramp naturally without.

Interaction and Protection:

• Battle at the Bridge - Creature removal and a bit of life gain. Ignore indestructible.
• Beast Within and Chaos Warp are any permanent removal for relatively cheap.
• Vandalblast and Blasphemous Act board wipe, one for creatures and one for artifacts.
• Boseiju, Who Endures target artifact, enchantment, or non basic land removal. Also have Field of Ruin for land removal
• Tamiyo's Safekeeping - Hexproof and indestructable for a creature
• Tibalt's Trickery - Red Counterspell
• Tempt with Vengeance and Hooded Hydra - Not many creatures in this deck, so these are good options to just generate tokens to hide behind.

Recursion:

• Eternal Witness and Regrowth Graveyard recursion for anything. We love green.

Changes from above

I do not want to edit the primer tbh, but broad changes were adding group card draw for that to be a group hug option and then a few small tweaks to other cards. Also added some good option from cards I own like Food Chain even if it is not a great option for the deck.

Removed and potential future changes:

• Command Beacon - Not sure if needed. Due to surplus in resources someone will likely win before it is.
• Heroic Intervention - Just great protection. added, removed Tibalt's Trickery
• Cut Read the Bones for a land. It felt dirty, may revert
