Deck overview

This Sultai deck harnesses Teval, the Balanced Scale to combine graveyard recursion and landfall strategies into an overwhelming token and combat engine. In the early turns, cheap ramp spells and self-mill creatures seed the graveyard with lands and high-impact permanents. Once Teval arrives on Turn 4, every attack trigger mills cards and returns a land to the battlefield, generating 2/2 Zombie Druid tokens as cards leave the graveyard. The engine rapidly compounds through redundant recursion pieces like Six, Ramunap Excavator, and Life from the Loam, alongside explosive landfall threats such as Scute Swarm, Field of the Dead, and Avenger of Zendikar. On Turn 5, mass land-retrieval spells like Lumra, Bellow of the Woods flood the battlefield, creating a decisive token army. By Turn 6, the deck closes the game through evasive aerial combat via Wonder, an overwhelming Craterhoof Behemoth overrun, or a massive Finale of Devastation, backed by efficient countermagic and protection.
