Multiverse Reforged is the four-color (white, blue, black and red) Commander deck from Reality Fracture, led by Jace, Multiverse Architect. Jace’s −3 exiles one of your creatures and replaces it with the next creature or planeswalker from your library, and cards like Mass Polymorph, Synthetic Destiny and Proteus Staff do the same. The plan: make cheap tokens, then turn them into huge threats.
Below you’ll find the full interactive decklist, what the deck does well, where it struggles and our recommended upgrades, split into budget ($3.72), mid-range ($29.45) and premium ($144.35). Start with the cheapest swaps and work your way up.

What the deck does well
- A real polymorph engine: Jace, Nissa, Mass Polymorph, Synthetic Destiny and Proteus Staff
- Huge payoffs like Archon of Cruelty and Avacyn, Angel of Horror
- Plenty of cheap token makers to feed the engine
Where it struggles
- Several big creatures that do little when you flip into them
- A few off-plan cards like Plan for All Outcomes and Teferi’s Reproach
- Card-selection spells the deck doesn’t really need
