Teval drives a competitive Sultai graveyard deck. Self-mill fills the yard, and then every card that leaves the graveyard (a land returned, a creature reanimated, a spell recast, a land exiled for mana) makes 2/2 Zombie Druids, with Teval's Judgment adding cards and Treasure on top. Fetchlands, land recursion and Gitrog-style land engines keep a steady flow of lands moving between graveyard and battlefield, feeding card draw and token triggers. Sacrifice outlets then turn the token stream into mana, cards, tutors and life drain, backed by fast reanimation of big threats and a heavy stack of free counterspells and cheap interaction. How it wins: It buries opponents under a growing army of Zombie tokens and turns them into drain and value through sacrifice engines like Yawgmoth, The Meathook Massacre and Cauldron of Essence, or reanimates and tutors into overwhelming threats like Razaketh to close the game. Key roles: - Self-mill: Fills the graveyard every turn with lands and creatures for Teval's attack trigger and the recursion suite to draw on, and sets up cheap card draw off milled cards (Hedron Crab, Stitcher's Supplier, Ripples of Undeath). - Land loop engine: Fetchlands, sacrificed lands and replays from the graveyard keep lands cycling through the yard, which triggers Teval's tokens, draws cards and grows Field of the Dead's army (The Gitrog Monster, Life from the Loam, Icetill Explorer). - Graveyard-leave payoffs: Every card exiled, recast or returned from the yard pays out extra tokens, Treasure or cards alongside Teval, turning routine recursion into a value engine (Teval's Judgment, Deathrite Shaman, Gravecrawler). - Reanimation and recasting: Cheap reanimation, entomb effects and graveyard-casting permanents bring back key creatures and spells, and each one is also a leave-the-graveyard trigger (Animate Dead, Entomb, Muldrotha, the Gravetide). - Sacrifice conversion: Outlets turn Zombie tokens and spent creatures into mana, cards, searched-up answers or pings, and mass-death payoffs drain the table (Yawgmoth, Thran Physician, Phyrexian Altar, The Meathook Massacre). - Tutors and free interaction: Tutors find whichever engine piece is missing, while free and one-mana counterspells and removal protect the setup at cEDH speed (Demonic Tutor, Fierce Guardianship, Pact of Negation).
