Teval’s Zombie Horde by BlackMageEW

Format: Commander

Commander: Teval, the Balanced Scale

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Teval, the Balanced Scale is the engine of a self-mill Sultai landfall deck. There is no double-faced commander, and the deck is not built around a hidden commander. The primary plan is to fill the graveyard with lands and creatures, then return lands from the graveyard to trigger Teval's Zombie Druid tokens, landfall payoffs, and Field of the Dead. Secondary paths use reanimation (Living Death, Reanimate) and the Kheru Goldkeeper + Tortured Existence + Syr Konrad infinite-damage combo. Teval's attack mills and recurs a land each turn, doubling as a token generator. The deck wins in combat with Craterhoof Behemoth after establishing a wide token board, or through Syr Konrad's drain. It plays as a resilient midrange graveyard engine but is exposed to graveyard hate.
