Deck overview

This deck is a five-color Token-Polymorph control build commanded by Jace, Multiverse Architect. The game plan revolves around generating inexpensive creature tokens during the early turns through cards like Skrelv's Hive, Dreadhorde Invasion, and Lingering Souls. On Turn 4, casting Jace allows an immediate −3 activation, exiling a token to cheat an enormous threat directly onto the battlefield from a creature suite packed with game-ending bombs like Archon of Cruelty, Serra's Emissary, and Archfiend of Despair. Secondary engines such as Proteus Staff, Mass Polymorph, and Synthetic Destiny provide backup avenues to convert token swarms into an overwhelming flying army. A robust mana rock package fixes all five colors, while modular board wipes like Sunfall and Martial Coup clear opposing boards while restocking token fodder. The deck wins through compounding combat damage and asymmetric attrition by Turn 7.
