Deck overview

This deck is a specialized 5-color Polymorph Control strategy commanded by Jace, Multiverse Architect. The game plan revolves around deploying cheap, recurring token generators on early turns—such as Dreadhorde Invasion, Skrelv's Hive, and Staff of the Storyteller—backed by an efficient 2-CMC mana rock suite. On Turn 4, Jace enters the battlefield and uses his -3 loyalty ability to exile a token and polymorph it directly into one of 12 massive game-ending creatures or planeswalkers from the 99. Hits like Toxrill, the Corrosive, Archon of Cruelty, Hullbreaker Horror, Serra's Emissary, and Archfiend of Despair dismantle opposing boards, lock out combat, and double life loss. A robust suite of low-cost counterspells, spot removal, and phased protection (Ripples of Potential, Lazotep Plating) keeps the engine safe while cheated behemoths close out the game over several dominant combat phases.
