Deck overview

Teval, the Balanced Scale is the centerpiece of a Sultai graveyard/aristocrats deck. The plan is to play Teval early, attack to mill three cards and return a land from the graveyard, creating a stream of 2/2 Zombie Druid tokens whenever cards leave the graveyard. The deck turns those leaves-graveyard triggers into mana, cards, tokens, and damage through Kheru Goldkeeper, Teval's Judgment, Insidious Roots, and Syr Konrad. The main wins are loops: Kheru Goldkeeper plus Tortured Existence generates infinite Treasures and triggers, while Gravecrawler plus a sac outlet plus any Zombie provides infinite death triggers with Blood Artist or Bastion of Remembrance. Landfall recursion with Azusa, Aesi, Ramunap Excavator, and Scute Swarm offers a secondary beatdown path, with Living Death and Muldrotha as reset buttons.
