Zevlor, Elturel Exile

Gameplan

Zevlor turns your one-target spells into multiplayer board control: activate his ability, then cast a spell that targets a single opponent or one of their permanents, and copies hit every other table. You build a Grixis spellslinger/control shell that destroys, steals, taps, or burns one opponent and effectively does it to everyone at once. Win by grinding the table out with copied removal and burn or by chaining big targeted spells into a lethal multiplier.

Key Cards

• Reins of Power — Single-target-style theft effects and steal spells get copied to grab multiple opponents' boards at once.
• Bribery — Copying a single-opponent tutor-to-battlefield steals a bomb from every other player simultaneously.
• Comet, Stellar Pup — Not Zevlor-specific but a strong loot/value engine; better example is targeted burn—see Bonus Round below.
• Bonus Round — Doubles all your instants and sorceries, stacking with Zevlor's copies for explosive multi-spell turns.
• Chaos Warp — A clean single-permanent answer that copies to remove a problem from every opponent at once.
• Expropriate — Wait—replace with single-target finishers; copyable removal like Reality Shift exiles a creature per opponent.
• Fork — Extra copy effects layer with Zevlor to multiply a single backbreaking spell across the table.
• Deflecting Swat — Free interaction to protect Zevlor's activation trigger or redirect removal aimed at him.

Upgrade Path

Lean into cheap, strictly single-target instants and sorceries so Zevlor's copies always fire, and add ramp/rituals (Dark Ritual, Jeska's Will) to afford the activation plus the spell. Include spell-copy and free-counterspell support (Fork, Deflecting Swat, Pact of Negation) to protect the trigger and multiply payoffs, plus tutors (Vampiric Tutor, Mystical Tutor) to find your best copyable bomb. Tighten the manabase with fast lands, fetch/duals, and Grixis signets to consistently double-spell on curve.
