- Yurlok + umbral mantle + leyline of abundance
- Yurlok + sword of the paruns + leyline of abundance

- seeker or skybreak + rings of brighthearth
- necrotic ooze + skirge familiar + asmodeus the archfiend + buried alive = draw deck
- chain of smog + witherbloom + underworld breach + LED + wheel of fortune

synergies:
- yurlok + lightning greaves is counter synergy
- leyline of abundance is both combo enabler and mana sink
- praetor's grasp can fetch silence as another protection piece
- opposition agent + scheming symmetry/wishclaw talisman
- kaervek the merciless/harsh mentor/ruric thar/zur ta druid + keen sense = card draw
-chord of calling -> tutor for opposition agent
- war's toll/tectonic instability + root maze/price of glory = land hate
- city of solitude/dosan + witherbloom apprentice + chain of smog = no iteraction against the smog
- equipment costs are mana sinks

considerations:
- stax theme puts more pressure on yurlok, group slug puts less
- nether void + allosaurus shepherd/destiny spinner = good stax
- might not need ashaya lines
- overabundance might be worthwhile, it adds alot of damage
- same with manabarbs
- city of solitude might be dangerous to run since opponents benefit from it too
- nonbasic land hate: run burning earth, primal order, price of progress,  and primarily basics (probably not a good strategy for casual tables)
- damage doublers (torbran, dictate of the twin gods, wound reflection etc): might be good to double slug effects
- seedborn muse to get extra mana burn in each turn cycle
-walking ballista is a mana sink that kills table
- maybe exquisite blood as a way to break parity on the slug effects
- tectonic instability might be bad since it doesnt cause mana to float.  Still acts as a quasi city of solitude though


exclusions:
- mana flare/heartbeat of spring/magus of the vineyard etc: making mana for the sake of it isn't good
- magewright stone - it taps itself
