I'm looking to build a Yorion deck myself. What I plan to focus on is:
- Keep the number of colors down. Your deck needs WWWUUUBBRRR to cast all its spells. I would rather build, for instance, a WR Yorion deck and a UB Yorion deck than a WUBR Yorion deck. The mana is better, and each deck can focus on different synergies.
- Game plan: Vomit my hand onto the battlefield and then blink ALL THE THINGS. If I have to wait for Gearhulks, that's... slow. I'd rather cast Ravenous Chupacabra on turn 4 and blink that on turn 5 than cast Noxious Gearhulk on 6 and blink it on 7. Elspeth Conquers Death and The Eldest Reborn are also slow but at least they also slow the opponent down (and curve nicely with Brago, King Eternal.)
- Anything that doesn't generate value on ETB/blink things/make mana, I wonder why it's in the deck. Behold the Multiverse/Mazemind Tome/Shark Typhoon/Doomskar/Ultimatums? Could have been Wall of Omens/Sea Gate Oracle/Mogg War Marshal/Legion's Landing/Lone Missionary. Cheap blockers that keep you alive to crank your game plan. (And you can chuck 'em to Doom Foretold.)
