Commander: Teysa Karlov

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Teysa Karlov heads an aristocratic Orzhov sacrifice strategy designed to drain the entire table through doubled death triggers. The deck establishes early token fodder using self-recurring creatures and token producers, pairs them with sacrifice outlets like Warren Soultrader or Ashnod's Altar, and layers multiple blood artists such as Cruel Celebrant, Bastion of Remembrance, and Marionette Apprentice. While the deck can win through incremental attrition and token beatdown backed by Teysa Karlov's lifelink and vigilance aura, its primary goal is executing infinite sacrifice loops with Gravecrawler or resolving a massive Bolas's Citadel or Living Death to drain all opponents in a single burst.
