"Piece the tragic notes together and is it not a melody."

My take on an infinite combo graveyard recursion deck with Teysa, Orzhov Scion as the commander. If you like the deck, please +1, and if you have any suggestions, leave a comment below.


Teysa, Orzhov Scion+Painter's Servant/Darkest Hour+ any creature
- Painter's Servant/Darkest Hour will make it so that any creature you sacrifice will trigger Teysa, Orzhov Scion's second ability, creating a 1/1 spirit that will keep replacing itself.

Nether Traitor/Reassembling Skeleton+Phyrexian Altar+Teysa, Orzhov Scion/Pawn of Ulamog/Sifter of Skulls/Pitiless Plunderer
- Sacrifice Nether Traitor or Reassembling Skeleton to Phyrexian Altar making , then Teysa, Orzhov Scion/Pawn of Ulamog/Sifter of Skulls/Pitiless Plunderer will trigger creating a token. Sacrifice the token and use your floating mana to revive your Nether Traitor or Reassembling Skeleton. You'll even make infinite comboing with Nether Traitor. Alternatively, if you have Pitiless Plunderer with Pawn of Ulamog/Sifter of Skulls you can use any sac outlet. Keep in mind Nether Traitor does not combo with Pitiless Plunderer alone as you need another creature dieing in order for it to be revived.

Nim Deathmantle+Ashnod's Altar+Teysa, Orzhov Scion/Pawn of Ulamog/Sifter of Skulls+any creature
- Sacrifice your creature to Ashnod's Altar for triggering Nim Deathmantle and Teysa, Orzhov Scion/Pawn of Ulamog/Sifter of Skulls. First summon your token, then sacrifice it for another , this allows you to pay for Nim Deathmantle and revive your creature. Can also work with Phyrexian Altar if you have multiple token producers out.

Nim Deathmantle+Ashnod's Altar+Woe Strider/Chittering Witch/Sling-Gang Lieutenant
- Sacrifice the non-token creature and one of its tokens to Ashnod's Altar and pay for Nim Deathmantle to bring back the non-token creature. Save for Woe Strider or Chittering Witch with just one opponent left, you can repeat for infinite tokens and sac some of them for infinite mana. Can also work with Phyrexian Altar if you have Teysa, Orzhov Scion/Pawn of Ulamog/Sifter of Skulls/Pitiless Plunderer or if you still have 3 opponents for Chittering Witch.

Eldrazi Displacer+Ashnod's Altar+Chittering Witch/Sling-Gang Lieutenant
- Sacrifice two token creatures to Ashnod's Altar and pay for Eldrazi Displacer to blink the non-token creature. Repeat for infinite mana so you can make infinite token. Can also work with Phyrexian Altar, but you won't make infinite mana and tokens unless you have Teysa, Orzhov Scion/Pawn of Ulamog/Sifter of Skulls/Pitiless Plunderer out.

Nim Deathmantle+Ashnod's Altar+Karmic Guide+ any creature
- Sacrifice Karmic Guide and the other creature to Ashnod's Altar and pay for Nim Deathmantle to bring back Karmic Guide triggering its effect which will then return the other creature to the battlefield. Also works with Reveillark if the other creature is small enough.

Fiend Hunter+Karmic Guide
- Summon Fiend Hunter targeting Karmic Guide and then sacrifice Fiend Hunter. Karmic Guide returns to the battlefield triggering its effect which will then return Fiend Hunter to the battlefield.

Karmic Guide+Reveillark
- Sacrifice Karmic Guide then sacrifice Reveillark triggering its effect. Return Karmic Guide to the battlefield triggering its effect which will then return Reveillark to the battlefield.

Reveillark+Fiend Hunter
- Summon Fiend Hunter targeting Reveillark. When Reveillark is banished, its effect will trigger, and in response sacrifice Fiend Hunter then target it with Reveillark's ability. Reveillark is returned to the battlefield followed by Fiend Hunter.

Sun Titan+Fiend Hunter
- Summon Fiend Hunter targeting Sun Titan and then sacrifice Fiend Hunter. Sun Titan returns to the battlefield triggering its effect which will then return Fiend Hunter to the battlefield.

Sun Titan+Karmic Guide+Animate Dead/Dance of the Dead/Necromancy
- Use Animate Dead/Dance of the Dead/Necromancy to revive Karmic Guide. In response to its trigger, sacrifice it, then return Sun Titan to the field. Use Sun Titan's ability to put a reanimate spell into play getting back Karmic Guide and in response to its trigger sacrifice both creatures.

Sun Titan+Animate Dead+Dance of the Dead/Dance of the Dead+Necromancy/Necromancy+Animate Dead
- Use Animate Dead/Dance of the Dead/Necromancy to revive Sun Titan. In response to its trigger, sacrifice it, then return a different reanimate spell into play getting back Sun Titan again

Leonin Relic-Warder+Animate Dead/Dance of the Dead/Necromancy
- Use Animate Dead/Dance of the Dead/Necromancy to revive Leonin Relic-Warder and then exile it. In response to the reanimate spell's LTB trigger, sacrifice Leonin Relic-Warder, then return the reanimate spell to the battlefield getting back Leonin Relic-Warder again

Blasting Station with a sac loop deals infinite damage

Blood Artist/Cruel Celebrant/Zulaport Cutthroat/Bastion of Remembrance with a sac loop drains our opponents while Corpse Knight causes infinite life loss

Sling-Gang Lieutenant can set up an infinite drain for our opponents with either Karmic Guide+Reveillark and any sac outlet, or with Nim Deathmantle/Eldrazi Displacer+Ashnod's Altar or alternatively with Phyrexian Altar if you also have Teysa, Orzhov Scion/Pawn of Ulamog/Sifter of Skulls/Pitiless Plunderer out

Ashnod's Altar/Phyrexian Altar/Pawn of Ulamog/Sifter of Skulls/Pitiless Plunderer with a sac loop makes infinite mana which can be put into Walking Ballista to deal infinite damage

Removal

Teysa, Orzhov Scion+Karmic Guide+Reveillark exiles our opponent's creatures

Fiend Hunter+Karmic Guide+Reveillark with a sac outlet exiles our opponent's creatures

Leonin Relic-Warder+Karmic Guide+Reveillark with a sac outlet exiles our opponent's artifacts and enchantments

Card Advantage

Bolas's Citadel can potentially set us up to play our whole deck if we have enough life, use along with Viscera Seer/Woe Strider to clear duds out of the way

Grim Haruspex with a sac loop draws our deck, as does Midnight Reaper if we have enough life

Skullclamp+Ashnod's Altar/Phyrexian Altar/Pawn of Ulamog/Sifter of Skulls/Pitiless Plunderer with a sac loop draws our deck, as does Mentor of the Meek with an appropriately sized sac loop

Recruiter of the Guard+Reveillark+Karmic Guide allows us to repeatedly tutor for key creatures from our deck. Not infinite but Knight of the White Orchid+Reveillark+Karmic Guide can thin out all the plains from our deck, most importantly setting up Mistveil Plains plays

Etcetera

Leonin Relic-Warder+Reveillark+Karmic Guide+any mana rock with a sac outlet makes infinite mana
