This is my current Yurlok of Scorch Trash deck. Like all my decks, I build to my own sense of fun. For this deck, I wanted a group slug theme that brought back that most nostalgic of old rules- mana burn.

Power Level: 7

Main win-con: Burn opponents to 0 with their own mana bases

Alternative win-con: Greasy Yurlok combo

Strategy: This deck plays with fire. Often the right move is to give your opponents' lots of mana to just have fun and cause chaos. Of course, you will soon capitalize on that and start the pain train, but certainly they wouldn't want to bite the hand that feeds them... right? However, you also need to know when to pump the brakes and hold back the boons. Giving the wrong deck too much of a head start can be fatal, and your defenses aren't very good. Look for Exsanguinate to close the game.

Combos:

The main combo involves abusing Yurlok giving everyone Jund mana at instant speed which, hopefully, they can't use and burning them out. To do that you'll need an untapper (Staff of Domination or Umbral Mantle) and then a way to make positive mana off tapping so you can loop infinity. These cards are Nyxbloom Ancient and Leyline of Abundance. But remember, you don't need to go infinite. Just using the vast amounts of mana you may be making can allow you to loop enough times to burn the table.
