Deck overview

This Temur spellslinger deck centers on Iroh, Grand Lotus, turning the graveyard into an expansive second hand. By granting flashback to every non-Lesson instant and sorcery at its printed cost and reducing Lesson spells to a single mana, Iroh enables explosive turns. The deck uses early turns to ramp, fix colors, and filter through the library with cheap cantrips and discard-draw spells. Once Iroh is deployed alongside cost reducers like Doc Aurlock, Grizzled Genius and payoffs like Guttersnipe, Coruscation Mage, or The Lost and the Damned, it chains multiple spells in a single turn. This flurry of casts rapidly burns down all three opponents simultaneously or floods the board with aggressive creature tokens. Interaction and protection spells pull double duty from the graveyard, ensuring resilience while racing toward a decisive Turn 7 finish.
