How Major Teroh decks play in EDH

Major Teroh is a mono-white commander costing 3W, and its legendary creature - bird soldier line shapes the whole deck around it. Sacrifice is built into the card, which pairs it with cheap recursive creatures and payoffs that trigger when something dies. Built-in evasion means damage gets through reliably, so effects that scale that damage are worth more than extra bodies. The cards below are the ones Major Teroh decks actually play most often, grouped by the job they do.
