having built 3 of these lists myself, I can give some advice:
>Terra/Urza
Stay away, unless you want to break into high power. The deck looks like it'd be fairly simple and fair (oh, I turn my artifacts into mana rocks, and get a beefy boi to protect me) but in reality you're committing tax evasion and taking a 20 minute turn with infinite mana and infinite triggers to just play your entire deck one randomly shuffled card at a time. Don't get me wrong, this is my own cEDH choice, but you do NOT play Urza casually.
>Teysa
She's really not all that popular, at least from what I've seen. She's one of the few Aristocrat strategies that really works, due to her being a doubler in the CZ that allows you to be aggressive with your fodder before it gets sac'd. She's super fun, though, and you should 100% build her just to have for later on. Can become a powerhouse if you splurge for tutors and doublers.
>Liesa
This is my go-to Orzhov commander. You run her, all the white stax effects you can, and the black Edict effects. Lifegain and Token subtheme, running both the Lin+Dran and Teysa you have in her 99 (along with her other printing) and you jus become a menace taxing the table, killing their field, and denying their abilities. Dont fall into the trap of playing her Angel Tribal, she brings nothing to the tribe. She's a Death and Taxes commander. And if her mana cost is your big issue, swap her out for Kambal (who will 100% be in the 99 anyway). Sure, she's a 5 cost, but she will ONLY ever be a 5 cost.
