Teval, the Balanced Scale

Commander: Teval, the Balanced Scale · Colors: UBG · Bracket: B3-High · Power: 2.0 · 100 cards

This Sultai graveyard-value deck is built around Teval, the Balanced Scale, using self-mill and sacrifice effects to fill the graveyard while generating value from death and reanimation triggers. Cards like Meren of Clan Nel Toth, Phyrexian Reclamation, and Living Death convert the stocked graveyard into recurring creatures, while Avenger of Zendikar and Craterhoof Behemoth provide explosive token-based finishes. The deck wins by grinding out incremental value through recursion and eventually overwhelming the table with a large reanimation swing or a Craterhoof-powered alpha strike.
