Deck overview

This deck is a four-color (WUBR) Polymorph control build led by Jace, Multiverse Architect. The primary game plan uses low-cost token generators such as Skrelv's Hive, Dreadhorde Invasion, and Lingering Souls to create cheap fodder in the early turns. On turn 4 or 5, the deck casts Jace and uses his -3 loyalty ability to exile a token, revealing cards from the library to cheat massive threats like Archon of Cruelty, Blightsteel Colossus, Archfiend of Despair, or Serra's Emissary straight onto the battlefield. Backed by defensive enchantments like Propaganda and Trouble in Pairs, stack control from Teferi, Time Raveler, and mass token polymorph spells like Mass Polymorph and Synthetic Destiny, the deck controls the flow of combat before overwhelming opponents through high-powered combat damage and punishing life loss.
