Ace of Jace by nutellakinesis

Format: Commander

Commander: Jace, Multiverse Architect

Bracket: 3

DeckCheck Threat Index: 36

Deck overview

This deck leverages Jace, Multiverse Architect as a repeatable Polymorph engine in the command zone. By excluding low-cost creature cards from the 99 entirely, every Polymorph activation guarantees flipping directly into a devastating top-end bomb such as It That Betrays, Archon of Cruelty, Serra's Emissary, or Darksteel Angel. Early turns establish mana acceleration through two-mana rocks while producing disposable token fodder with cards like Skrelv's Hive, Dreadhorde Invasion, and Lingering Souls. On turn 4, Jace enters the battlefield and immediately exiles a token to cheat a massive threat into play. Defensive enchantments including Propaganda and Norn's Annex combine with Jace's built-in combat tax to deter attacks against your planeswalkers. Secondary cheat spells like Mass Polymorph and Synthetic Destiny provide explosive multi-creature turns that overwhelm opposing boards and close the game through combat damage.
