Deck overview

This deck is a classic Orzhov Aristocrats build helmed by Teysa Karlov, designed to generate overwhelming card advantage, board control, and life drain by doubling creature death triggers. The early game establishes resilient token generators such as Bitterblossom, Carrier Thrall, and Afterlife creatures, paired with low-cost sacrifice outlets and life-draining payoffs. Once Teysa Karlov enters on Turn 4, every sacrificed creature extracts double value, triggering card draw engines like Grim Haruspex and board-clearing effects via Grave Pact or Dictate of Erebos. The deck can win through incremental attrition or immediately assemble an infinite drain combo using Ashnod's Altar, Pitiless Plunderer, Reassembling Skeleton, and a drain piece like Blood Artist or Zulaport Cutthroat. Robust graveyard recursion and protection cards like Teferi's Protection ensure resilience against opposing disruption.
