Deck overview

This Sultai midrange deck is helmed by Teval, the Balanced Scale, blending graveyard recursion, self-mill, and landfall synergies into an escalating resource engine. In the early turns, the deck accelerates its mana base with efficient dorks and land ramp to deploy Teval by Turn 3 or 4. Each Teval attack fuels the graveyard, ramps land cards directly to the battlefield, and generates 2/2 Zombie Druid tokens. Mid-game turns compound this advantage through powerful engines like Six, The Gitrog Monster, Muldrotha, the Gravetide, and Life from the Loam. The deck pivots to a decisive finish around Turn 6 by deploying massive board states via Avenger of Zendikar, Scute Swarm, or Living Death, giving the army evasion through Wonder or trample from Will of the Sultai. Supported by resilient protection from Sylvan Safekeeper and versatile removal, the deck grinds down opposition and closes games reliably.
