Strategy
Jace, Vryn's Prodigy is a unique commander that doubles as both a cheap creature and a planeswalker. Your core strategy is to flip him into Jace, Telepath Unbound as early as possible, then leverage his repeatable mill ability to fill graveyards—yours and your opponents'. This naturally supports a graveyard-focused gameplan where milling becomes a resource rather than a threat. You'll want plenty of self-mill outlets and cards that benefit from cards hitting your graveyard, turning his passive milling into consistent value.
Once Jace is a planeswalker, he becomes a powerful utility engine: his +1 mills three cards per turn, his -3 gets any instant or sorcery from your graveyard back, and his ultimate is pure card advantage. The deck wins primarily through control and attrition, using mill to disrupt opponents while filling your graveyard with spells you can flash back. You'll combine this with creature-based defense and instant-speed tricks to stay alive until you've ground out a win through repeated card advantage and resource denial.

Key Synergies
Budget Build
Lean on budget mill cards like Tome of Legends and Teferi's Tutelage instead of pricey cantrips; swap Snapcaster Mage for Murktide or Subtlety.
