Teysa Orzhov B3 by UmbralKins

Format: Commander

Commander: Teysa Karlov

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

This Orzhov aristocrats deck is built around Teysa Karlov's death-trigger doubling. The main plan is to make a token army, sacrifice it through outlets like Viscera Seer, Yawgmoth, and the Altars, and convert each death into life loss with Blood Artist, Cruel Celebrant, Zulaport Cutthroat, and Bastion of Remembrance. Secondary lines are compact infinite loops: Gravecrawler plus Warren Soultrader or Phyrexian Altar, and the Ashnod's Altar/Pitiless Plunderer/Reassembling Skeleton engine. Teysa, Orzhov Scion adds spirit production and removal; Sephiroth can transform into One-Winged Angel as an alternate drain payoff. Teysa Karlov accelerates every line but is not strictly required. No true hidden commander: Sephiroth is a transformational backup, not the deck's engine.
