TEVAL, THE BALANCED SCALE (LEOVOLD) by asimbd

Format: Commander

Commander: Teval, the Balanced Scale

Bracket: 5

Deck overview

Teval, the Balanced Scale is a Sultai graveyard-combo deck built around turning self-mill into lethal loops. The primary plan is to put Blood Artist, Gravecrawler, and Warren Soultrader into the graveyard with Buried Alive or Entomb, then use Victimize or Reanimate to bring the creature pieces back while casting Gravecrawler from the graveyard for an infinite life-drain loop. Teval's attack trigger mills lands, returns them tapped, and creates Zombie Druid tokens that serve as sacrifice fodder. Secondary paths include Hogaak pressure, Phyrexian Altar/Kaya's Ghostform loops, and Expropriate over-the-top turns.
