Deck overview

This deck is a five-color control deck built around Jace, Multiverse Architect. The primary game plan generates inexpensive creature tokens using enchantments and spells like Dreadhorde Invasion, Skrelv's Hive, and Lingering Souls, then uses Jace's -3 loyalty ability to transform those tokens into massive creatures and planeswalkers from the library. The hit pool includes formidable threats such as Archon of Cruelty, Archfiend of Despair, Serra's Emissary, and Memnarch, the Warden. Backed by a dense suite of two-mana artifacts, the deck consistently casts its commander on Turn 4. Top-deck sculptors like Brainstorm and Brainsurge ensure that drawn high-cost cards can be placed back into the library to be cheated into play. Efficient spot removal and flexible sweepers clear the way for flying beaters to close out the game over two to three attack steps.
