Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Teysa, Orzhov Scion headlines a classic Orzhov aristocrats engine that converts dying black creatures into flying Spirit tokens and repeatable exile removal. The deck establishes early token generators and recursive creatures, pairing them with free sacrifice outlets to feed incremental death triggers. Opponents are steadily drained through redundant drain payoffs like Blood Artist, Cruel Celebrant, and Marionette Apprentice, heavily amplified by trigger multipliers such as Teysa Karlov and Drivnod, Carnage Dominus. Mass reanimation spells, including Living Death and Rally the Ancestors, provide explosive turns that instantly cycle entire graveyards to drain all opponents out of the game simultaneously.
