Strategy
Teo is a flying-focused commander that turns your aerial attacks into card advantage and creature growth. Every time your flying creatures attack together, you're drawing and discarding, which fuels Teo's secondary effect: whenever you discard a nonland card, you pump a creature with a +1/+1 counter. The deck wants to amass a evasive air force while using discard as a tool to both cycle through your deck and grow your threats. You'll win by swinging in with multiple flying creatures boosted by counters, or by building up a few heavily-pumped flyers that can close games quickly.
The core gameplan is creature-focused rather than spell-heavy. You're looking for efficient flyers, cards that synergize with discard (or benefit from it), and ways to reliably trigger Teo's draw engine multiple times per turn. Creatures like Soulkeeper Archangel and Archdruid's Charm enable repeated flying attacks, while cards that reward discarding—or cards you want in the graveyard anyway—turn Teo's downside into upside. Since you're already drawing and discarding constantly, graveyard synergies and flashback effects can fit naturally into the deck.
This is a tempo-based strategy: you're building flying creatures that grow incrementally while generating value through card selection. It's fast enough to threaten in the early game but has staying power through the mid-game via card draw and incremental pump.

Key Synergies
Budget Build
Swap expensive flyers like Ledger Shredder for cheaper evasive creatures like Watcher of the Spheres or Faerie Miscreant; use Faithless Looting and Catalog instead of pricey blue draw spells.
