of all card types why foil i mean thats why it costs like $1,300

Ruin Ghost for your cool lands exspecially Bojuka Bog

Now that's an intriguing ability. If I had more ETB lands I'd run that in a heartbeat.

yea thought you'd like that it basically says, tap: exile target graveyard. when you have Bojuka Bog + Ruin Ghost together.

So after playing a few games with nothing on the board I've decided to drop a bunch of instants/sorceries and add in a few more creatures that offer similar abilities that I can sac for Teysa's ability. Also dropped a few that were underwhelming like Tidehollow Sculler, but they could go back in if their abilities are missed.

I think that was a good move.

I really have to get my hands on a Xiahou Dun, the One-Eyed though. That would add some major recycling in the deck.

So now that I'm rocking a Xiahou Dun, the One-Eyed, I can take full advantage of the various reanimating black cards. Especially Victimize, which with a Sidisi, Undead Vizier in the graveyard makes for a very lucrative synergy. Yes I will take a tutor and some white 1/1 spirit tokens. Now I think I need a few more win/cons and we should be good.

So it appears that Reveillark broke this deck a bit. Karmic Guide + Reveillark + Tidehollow Sculler to exile all hands and creatures and provide infinite tokens if Teysa, Orzhov Scion is in play. Or infinite mana if Ashnod's Altar is in play. This may be going to wrong direction.

Karmic guide plus reveillark plus any other card is almost always an infinite combo. Keep in mind that you dont have these cards in here for their infinite combo use but also consider the infinite combo loop a great late game finisher.

That is true. Sometimes I wonder though, is it beneficial to end a long brutal game with an infinite combo? Does that really make people want to play another round, or are the people who lost left feeling like it was a waste of an hour?

If your in a long brutal game and theres 2 or more people eliminated. Then yes it perfectly fine

eh, i say the longer a game goes the less fun it is for it to end in combo. it would be like reading a great book that has a huge build up to a climax and then bam, deus ex machina from nowhere, GG the plots solved.

Sigh...were there you have it. It was a 3v1 if that makes any difference Atsuma

Liliana of the Dark Realms

I have been seriously tempted to put it in here. It's funny you mention it because I just had a few games with my mono black deck and I always have tons of land because of her.

Thoughts on what to take out for her?

So I have a deck that is kind of like this, and by that I mean I always get Elspeth and Teysa out together. I love having Skullclamp in that deck as well, most of your tokens are 1/1s

I've definitely considered adding that in here. Sorin, Lord of Innistrad + Skullclamp with Teysa out makes for a nice token generating draw engine.

freezerboy Great Looking Teysa Orzhov scion deck you put together

Thanks SirChris39. I has been one of my favorites to play. Has a lot of synergies in it without being a combo deck, and can be competitive and consistent.

freezerboy you are so welcome and i have Tesya Orzhov Scion deck too
