Teysa Karlov by ortize89

Format: Commander

Commander: Teysa Karlov

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

A classic Orzhov aristocrats build that grinds the table down by repeatedly triggering drain effects (Blood Artist, Cruel Celebrant, Bastion of Remembrance) while Teysa Karlov doubles every death trigger. The deck uses token generators and recursive creatures like Reassembling Skeleton to keep sacrifice fodder available, and can finish with a burst of drains or a large Spiritkeeper token swarm. It is a midrange attrition deck that aims to outvalue opponents rather than assemble a single combo; Syr Konrad offers a secondary library-mill damage angle and Funeral Room provides a late-game mass recursion.
