How good is she with Jace, the Mind Sculptor or Liliana Vess to set her up?!

She is honestly busted in half. I've been looking for her deck for a while, but I haven't been able to find a copy. Every place I got to is sold out. I will find her deck and make the most awesome instant and sorcery deck possible. I thought she needed to connect to cast spells. This is even better then I imagined.

Ironically the Commander that was spoiled first is not that great, but her deck is the most expensive

@MisterAction
Right to both of those, but the last commander precon had enemy color legends, perhaps they could have had new ally colored legends? could be something like "Gisa and Geralf, the Mad Twins" they could have been blue black or something. And as for a legendary werewolf, it could have been a red green normal card rather than a double faced card, it could have been Tovolar. He has been mentioned on cards before, and he is talked about in "The Planeswalker's guide to Innistrad" He is even known to never transform back to his human form, thus erasing the need for the back side. I was honestly hoping Tovolar would have showed up in the Jund deck, just so I could make a commander deck with ALL of the werewolves for fun (and the black could have been included because his howlpack has been known to use blood magic) Obviously this was all wish fulfillment on my part.

Basically a Grixis-centric Kaalia with a bigger butt. I cannot lie, I do like her a lot.......

I really think this was overshadowed once Nekusar was spoiled. Even then it was not that appealing.

Even in Jeleva's precon, you can do stupid things.
T1 Land, Sol Ring
T2 Tap out for Obelisk of Grixis, play Izzet Boilerworks and bounce your tapped land (duh)
T3 Jeleva, Nephalia's Scourge, exile something hilarious like:
1. Cruel Ultimatum
2. Army of the Damned
3. Incendiary Command
4. Opportunity
T4 Swing; gain massive advantage; everyone will gang up on you for the rest of the game.
I'm scared.
It's not that improbable either, considering there's three bouncelands you could use, a whole variety of mana rocks, and probably a use for that T1 double colorless (can't think of any other mana rocks ATM)

Her strength is not in her ability to power down the opponent with instants and sorceries. Her strength is in the fact that she is among the best mill cards in EDH, in that she can hit each of your opponents for 4, then 6, then 8, then etc mill every time you play her. Throw in Mind Grind for some ungodly amount of mana late in the game (and tutor to make sure you get it in your hand before you throw Jeleva out there) and it's essentially GG if you do it right. It's too bad her deck doesn't support her at all...why the heck are there four X spells in a deck built around not paying for the spells you cast!?

@Taudisban
i concur my werewolf tribal commander/edh deck needs a more fiting general than Ruric Thar, the Unbowed.

I'm not exactly sure how the rules work on her but I have a question about her effect.
If she comes out, I kill her, and then she comes back out, can she cast instants and sorceries from her first cast? Or is she treated as a whole new Jeleva upon recast and, as such, cannot use the old Jeleva's exiled cards?
I feel like this issue has come up in the past for me with other cards that someone said it was a whole new creature even if it was the same card, but I just want to be sure.
