Deck overview

This Sultai deck is an explosive graveyard reanimator and lands midrange strategy commanded by Teval, the Balanced Scale. The deck accelerates its mana on early turns with efficient dorks and land ramp, then begins filling the graveyard using efficient mill cards, dredge pieces, and tutors like Entomb and Buried Alive. Teval turns graveyard movement into battlefield presence by recurring lands on attack and generating 2/2 Zombie Druid tokens whenever cards leave the graveyard. The mid-game transitions into oppressive resource denial by cheating into play game-warping Praetors such as Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger and Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur, or stealing mana bases with Gilt-Leaf Archdruid. The endgame finishes the table via a massive Living Death or an overwhelming combat step powered by Craterhoof Behemoth and Wonder.
