Deck overview

This deck is a Temur Spellslinger strategy built around Iroh, Grand Lotus. It uses early green and artifact ramp to deploy Iroh on Turn 5. Once Iroh is on the battlefield, all Lesson cards in the graveyard gain flashback for only {1} mana, turning the graveyard into a reliable second hand. Cost reducers such as Doc Aurlock, Grizzled Genius and Goblin Electromancer make these graveyard casts nearly free. The deck leverages high spell velocity to trigger damage and creature engines, specifically Guttersnipe, Caldera Pyremaw, Stormsplitter, and Impending Flux. These cards convert repeated spell casts into heavy burn damage across all opponents and an explosive wide board of attacking tokens. The deck features strong card flow and solid instant-speed interaction, though it remains vulnerable to targeted creature removal and graveyard hate.
