My Brother and I are "draft" building commander decks using the contents of a single Booster box of Dragonstorm. I managed to get some great pulls but it was glaring ling obvious that my box was made for a Sultai deck lead by Teval, Arbiter of Virtue. But this for that deck (https://moxfield.com/decks/cMtuXuY-akq2qkdG6rlvyg).

Instead, I am looking for the deck I want to build after the challenge is done. Teval is an awesome card and I really want to build around him so what are the must haves?

I'm kind of new to the game and don't have a ton of advice but I saw this thread posted on Reddit the other day and thought the list looked cool and very interesting. I'm not sure what kind of budget you have and if this is how you want to play the deck but this post was pretty well written so I'd recommend checking it out. https://old.reddit.com/r/EDH/comments/1jttm8z/i_have_played_30_games_with_teval_arbiter_of/

Of the deck'

#

But rly depends on what you really wanna play

candid gale
#

yup, for sure. I have tags setup on the deck

inner mountain
#

Big creatures spells with X?

candid gale
#

i mostly want to combo into some funnies

inner mountain
#

Or even strom(which is possible but the friend's here deck name is then rly accurate)

#

playing big X things feels a gamble as you need to offset alot of life. im fine with using a few spells for life with teval, but ideally want to mill myself and get stuff into my hand that I want and then use as much life as I can

#

to do damage/kill people

#

and potentially offset that with life gain somehow back

#

i dont want to buy a 20$ aetherflux reservour

inner mountain
#

Which is the most risky here honestly

candid gale
#

yeah i want went mill and big x spells

inner mountain
#

I mean safest strategy is to play the most static effects that you need to cast once and get value over time

winning lines for this are

platinum angel, going to 0 and playing repay in kind (very funny)

milling and using exsang

using traumatize to mill half of your deck for exsang or mind grind, debating inclusion

milling myself alot or traumatize into nuclear fallout

But the one must have for sure is [[up the beanstalk]]

No matter what you want to do with the deck

rise of the dark realms as well

#

It'll be always good and is light on curve

#

A perfect card👌

technically replay in kind doesnt need to kill, as long as it gets others low enough to be in the kill range, just that those colours is harder to burn your opponent [[mind bomb]]

i am actually looking for a list that plays [[vilis, broker of blood]]
