Teval, the Balanced Scale Commander Deck

by nightborn_lammasu107 cards

Teval lands is a graveyard-lands deck. It mills, fetches and sacrifices lands, then replays them from the graveyard with Teval's attack trigger and a large suite of "play lands from your graveyard" permanents, so that every land leaving the yard makes a Zombie Druid and every land entering fires landfall. Extra land drops, land-recursion engines and ETB-trigger doublers stack those landfall triggers into tokens, card draw, mana and direct life loss, while utility lands like Strip Mine, Ghost Quarter and Glacial Chasm loop over and over. How it wins: It buries opponents under landfall-generated tokens and drain triggers, can make Marit Lage from Dark Depths and Thespian's Stage or Vesuva, and can lock out combat damage by replaying Glacial Chasm from the graveyard every turn. Key roles: - Graveyard land engine: Lands are played from the graveyard with extra drops, so each one leaving the yard triggers Teval's Zombie Druid and each one entering triggers landfall. (Ramunap Excavator, Icetill Explorer, Conduit of Worlds) - Self-mill and land sacrifice: Milling and sacrifice outlets stock the graveyard with lands, cash them in for card draw or mana, and refill Teval's return pool. (The Gitrog Monster, Squandered Resources, Hedge Shredder) - Mass land returns: Whole graveyards of lands return at once, producing a burst of landfall triggers and an Teval token. (Lumra, Bellow of the Woods, World Shaper, Splendid Reclamation) - Trigger doublers: Land and permanent ETB triggers fire twice, doubling the landfall payoffs. (Ancient Greenwarden, Yarok, the Desecrated, Traveling Chocobo) - Landfall payoffs: Each land entering produces creature tokens, cards, mana or life loss for opponents, turning land replays into an army and a drain clock. (Rampaging Baloths, Avenger of Zendikar, Ob Nixilis, the Fallen) - Utility land loops: Recurring lands give repeatable land destruction and graveyard hate, an indestructible 20/20 via Dark Depths copies, and a Glacial Chasm damage lock that holds off opponents. (Glacial Chasm, Dark Depths, Strip Mine)
