List looks good! You might want to try Stoneforge Mystic since you're running so much equipment. I play her just for Skullclamp, but you have more options. Do you ever run into problems with high CMC cards? I notice you're playing a lot of 5+ drops while having few early ramp spells. I also enjoy your unconventional inclusions like Deathbringer Liege and the two swords. Have they been successful so far?

Thank you for your thoughts.

I have thought about Stoneforge Mystic but it isn’t in my collection yet and pretty expensive these days :D

The swords act like pet-cards. Equiping it on an expendable creature (e.g. an 1/1 Spirit with flying) gains some incidental value.

The same is true for the Deathbringer Liege. He pumps our team for a Plan B if we need lethal Dmg. He also can remove opponents threats; like a multitool.

I hadn’t had much issues with cmc yet but wanted to lower the curve a little bit. I thought to implement Dauthi Voidwalker, but don’t know really what to remove for it. First thoughts where Shadowspear, Grave Titan, Emeria's Call  Flip or Gray Merchant of Asphodel. Any thoughts or suggestions on this?

Housegheist Personally, I'm a fan of more on-theme synergy cards, like Garrison Cat and Hunted Witness as good ways to keep average CMC down, but voidwalker is definitely an option in terms of raw power. I'd say of the four, keep Emeria's Call  Flip though since it doesn't have much opportunity cost.

@Ninja_Wizerd & 9-lives thank you for your upvotes :)

Masterful: What do you think about Ebondeath, Dracolich? Even if he enters tapped, he can be flashed in and if not exiled will always come back.

Housegheist I think Ebondeath is a bit slow. Paying 4 mana each time is a lot. For 3 death triggers, that's 12 mana. Comparatively, Doomed Traveler is 3 death triggers for 1 mana with Teysa out.

Nice deck! I run a similar style Teysa. I would suggest getting rid of the monuments for mana rocks like arcane signet, orzhov signet and the orzhov talisman. Also Elspeth, suns champion is a power house. Good luck and I think your deck is at 101 cards with your commander (making tapped out say it is not legal).

wideline1414 First of, thank you for your vote and comment. :)

I added the monuments for several reasons, like fluff… but i’m casting so mich creature spells, that they trigger pretty often… and the mana-reduction counts for each creature spell i’m casting. I admit, that the suggestet rocks are pretty powerful, but i like the monuments for what they do. Even if they lack a bit in power.

Unfortunately, i do not own a copy of Else… bit if, she would battle for the PW-Slot against Lili… since Lili was my first ever drawn PW, i would assume that i can’t dismiss her :oD

Thanks for pointing put the misscount. It’s corrected, Body Launderer has to go for the Battle Angels of Tyr
