About Teysa Karlov
Teysa Karlov, Legendary creature — human advisor, designed by Magali Villeneuve first released in Jan, 2019 in the set Ravnica Allegiance and was printed exactly in 11 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's a key card in 3 combos.
Teysa Karlov would be a great addition to a black-white Aristocrats deck in Magic: the Gathering, where sacrificing creatures for value is a key strategy. Her ability to double triggered abilities from creature deaths can lead to explosive turns with cards like Blood Artist or Zulaport Cutthroat. While there may be other cards that offer similar effects, Teysa's unique combination of abilities makes her a strong contender for inclusion in decks looking to maximize value from sacrificing creatures.
Rules
01/25/19
An ability that triggers on an event that causes a creature to die doesn’t trigger twice. For example, an ability that triggers “whenever you sacrifice a creature” triggers only once.
01/25/19
If a creature dying at the same time that another permanent you control leaves the battlefield causes a triggered ability of that permanent to trigger, that ability triggers an additional time.
01/25/19
If you somehow control two Teysas, a creature dying causes abilities to trigger three times, not four. A third Teysa causes abilities to trigger four times, a fourth causes abilities to trigger five times, and so on. This also means that if you control Teysa and cast a second one, an ability that triggers when it dies due to the “legend rule” triggers three times.
01/25/19
Teysa affects a creature’s own “when this creature dies” triggered abilities as well as other triggered abilities that trigger when that creature dies. Such triggered abilities start with “when” or “whenever.”
01/25/19
The trigger event doesn’t have to specifically refer to “creatures.” In these cases, the trigger event may also refer to something being “put into a graveyard from the battlefield.” For example, an ability that triggers “whenever an artifact is put into a graveyard from the battlefield” would trigger twice if an artifact creature dies while Teysa Karlov is on the battlefield.
