Deck overview

This Orzhov aristocrats deck is built around Teysa Karlov, whose doubling of death triggers supercharges every Blood Artist effect and Treasure generator. The primary plan is to convert small creatures and tokens into life loss and cards through repeatable sacrifice, with the strongest line being Teysa + Reassembling Skeleton + a free sac outlet + Pitiless Plunderer + any drainer for an infinite-drain loop. Secondary paths use token swarms (Bitterblossom, Spectral Procession, Increasing Devotion) and Teysa, Orzhov Scion or Dictate of Erebos to grind the board. Sephiroth acts as a hidden double-faced payoff: its front draws and drains; after the fourth death trigger it transforms, giving a permanent emblem and an attack-trigger draw engine. The back face is the finisher once death triggers are plentiful.
