Teval's Sultai Graveyard 👻🐉🪦 by MattyLav

Format: Commander

Commander: Teval, the Balanced Scale

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Teval, the Balanced Scale leads a Sultai self-mill/landfall deck that turns cards leaving the graveyard into Zombie Druid tokens and life-loss triggers. The primary plan is to stock the graveyard with creatures and lands, then use the Kheru Goldkeeper + Tortured Existence loop or Gravecrawler + Phyrexian Altar loop to drain the table with Soul Enervation or Syr Konrad. Secondary paths are landfall value (Aesi, Tatyova, Field of the Dead) and an eventual Marit Lage from Dark Depths/Thespian's Stage. Teval's attack both mills and reanimates a land, making her the main token engine and an enabler for Gravecrawler, but the deck is not single-combo; Muldrotha, Meren, and Conduit of Worlds provide a second value engine. There is no hidden commander; the list is built around a single-faced commander.
