Orzhov Enforcer earns its slot through a deathtouch body that replaces itself with a flying spirit token on death — two relevant triggers for one card, which is exactly what Teysa Karlov wants to see. The cost is a two-mana 1/1 that does nothing the turn it enters, so it's an engine piece, not a threat.

Commanders with the highest synergy

Teysa Karlov
Teysa Karlov doubles both death triggers, turning Orzhov Enforcer's single spirit into two — and the deathtouch clause means any chump block or sacrifice outlet converts this 1/1 into a meaningful resource immediately.

Teysa, Orzhov Scion
Teysa, Orzhov Scion can exile Orzhov Enforcer as part of her token-generation cost, feeding her own engine while the resulting spirit token loops back into more fodder for the same ability.

Commander is where Orzhov Enforcer does real work — death-trigger synergies are a staple archetype in black-white, and a two-mana body that generates a flying token on death plugs into sacrifice loops efficiently. In Legacy, Modern, and Pioneer it's essentially invisible: a 1/1 deathtouch for two doesn't meet the rate those formats demand. Oathbreaker offers the same Commander-style synergy potential in a smaller pod, so it's a reasonable include there if your planeswalker cares about aristocrats.
