Yuriko Bracket 5

Summary

A real cEDH Yuriko list with premium tutors, free interaction, and a clean Thassa's Oracle package. It is strong enough for Bracket 5, but it sits on the slower, combatdependent side of the bracket and gives up raw speed by playing several Yurikospecific damage cards over more universal fast mana and efficiency pieces.
