Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This deck aims to control the table through symmetrical mana doubling, forced mana burn, and painful game-action taxes. Commanded by Yurlok of Scorch Thrash, the strategy turns traditional ramp on its head by forcing opponents to either float unwanted mana and lose life or tap out and suffer punishments from Citadel of Pain and Power Surge. While squeezing life totals through continuous drain, the deck generates massive mana pools with doublers like Heartbeat of Spring and Nyxbloom Ancient. It secures victory by channeling excessive mana into infinite untap loops with Staff of Domination, or resolving lethal finishers like Torment of Hailfire and Comet Storm.
