Deck overview

This is a Sultai self-mill graveyard value deck helmed by Teval, the Balanced Scale. The primary game plan is to fill the graveyard through self-mill effects, then leverage recursion spells and permanents to reanimate threats and generate incremental advantage. The commander's attack trigger mills three and returns a land, while its second ability creates 2/2 Zombie Druid tokens whenever cards leave the graveyard, tying the deck's two main engines together. The deck can win through token swarm (Army of the Damned, Dread Summons), drain triggers (Blood Artist, Syr Konrad, the Grim, Diregraf Captain), or an infinite loop with Gravecrawler + Pitiless Plunderer + a sacrifice outlet. The deck lacks fast mana and premium tutors, making it a slower, grind-oriented strategy that aims to outvalue opponents over many turns.
