Teysa Karlov Deck by Markamus0415

Format: Commander

Commander: Teysa Karlov

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

This is a Teysa Karlov aristocrats combo deck built around weaponizing death triggers. Teysa doubles every death-triggered ability of permanents she controls, making Blood Artist-style drains, Grim Haruspex draws, and Skullclamp bursts fire twice. The primary kill is an infinite sacrifice loop-Warren Soultrader looping Gravecrawler, or Ashnod's Altar looping Reassembling Skeleton-paired with any of the deck's many drain payoffs. Drivnod, Carnage Dominus acts as a second copy of the commander's doubling in the 99, while Contamination plus a recursive creature provides a hard mana-denial lock. Living Death and Awakening Hall offer mass-reanimation resets. The deck is compact, tutor-efficient, and able to pivot from a fast infinite-drain kill into a longer attrition/prison game.
