Teysa Karlov, Envoy of the Orzhov Guild, believes in the best of her guild. She will stop at nothing to remove the corrupt Obzedat from its control, and lead the Orzhov into a better light. Her plan set of law magic may have been foiled by her grandfather Karlov, but Teysa has lived over a century, and she has studied the laws and magic of Ravnica too long to give up after only one defeat.

And with the allegiance of the planeswalker Kaya, one whose skills allow her to reach the untouchable realm of ghosts, Teysa and the guild she wishes to save could finally be free of the ghost council...


Teysa Karlov, the Final Law is a deck that allows you to sit back like a monarch at the battlefield, dismantling the greatest threats on the board while sitting behind strong defences, threatening the destruction of your opponents' plans should they turn against you.

  • Creatures and spells to exile and destroy the key pieces your opponents control, foiling plans before they threaten you.
  • Defenders and enchantments that keep attacking you from being worthwhile, with powerful curses to punish those who decide to.
  • Life draining effects to keep you alive while undermining the rest.
  • Revive the strongest that have fallen by looting the graveyards late in the game, forming your new army from the plans you have foiled.

I've been fascinated by the idea of a black & white commander deck for a while, and after seeing Teysa's card loved the idea of a commander who sits back and manipulates the battlefield politically, like a monarch lawing laws against their enemies.

Partway through constructing the deck I read through Teysa's story articles and found the great idea of if she and Kaya teamed up to take down the Obzedat someday, which also gave a bit of flavour to the deck towards the end!
