What's in the Box
Multiverse Reforged is the single Commander precon released alongside Reality Fracture on 2 October 2026 — not one of four, which is itself notable for a modern Standard set. It is built around Jace Beleren's Echoverse: the replacement multiverse he constructed, populated with inverted versions of familiar Magic legends. A mono-white Ob Nixilis. A mono-black Avacyn. A colourless Omnath. An Orzhov Niv-Mizzet.
Per Wizards of the Coast, each deck contains:
- 1 ready-to-play 100-card Commander deck
- 1 traditional foil face commander with borderless art — Jace, Multiverse Architect
- 1 traditional foil featured commander with borderless art — Nissa, Leyline Tamer
- 98 non-foil cards, including 16 new-to-Magic cards
- 10 non-foil double-sided tokens
- 1 reference card and 1 deck box
In the Commander set's own numbering, the new cards occupy collector numbers #1–#19 — every Echoverse legend in the deck plus the three new Turbulent lands. Everything from #20 upward is a reprint.
The Two Commanders
Jace, Multiverse Architect is the face commander, and it is a planeswalker commander — a design choice openers welcomed loudly. One ambassador's first reaction on unboxing was simply "I always think we should have more planeswalkers as commanders." It leads a token strategy, and openers who saw it in collector boosters rated it a strong Superfriends build and possibly the best polymorph commander in the set.
Nissa, Leyline Tamer is the featured alternate commander. One detail worth knowing if you are buying singles: the precon and the Secret Lair Bundle are the only places the non-foil version appears, which is why it carries a small premium over what a precon alternate commander would usually be worth. Both commanders also show up in collector boosters, the Secret Lair Bundle, Draft Night and as MTG Arena wildcards.
Both currently trade around $2.50 in their tracked borderless printings, on 308 and 364 recorded sales respectively — healthy liquidity, modest prices. Neither commander is where this deck's value lives.
Every New Card, Priced
Market prices in USD from PriceCharting as of 25 October 2026, with the trailing sales count so you can see which prices are real. These are the base (non-foil, non-extended-art) printings — the versions that actually come in the deck. Extended-art and foil versions of most of these also exist in collector boosters.
| No. | Card | Type | USD | Sales | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| #1 | Jace, Multiverse Architect | Planeswalker — face commander | $2.50 | 308 | Borderless traditional foil in the deck. A planeswalker commander and the set’s face character; openers rate it a strong Superfriends and polymorph commander. |
| #2 | Nissa, Leyline Tamer | Featured commander | $2.49 | 364 | Borderless traditional foil. The deck’s alternate commander — the precon and the Secret Lair Bundle are the only way to get the non-foil version. |
| #3 | Omnath, Locus of the Void | Creature | $4.19 | 553 | A colourless Omnath. Whenever a land you control enters, add two colourless mana — one opener called it "freaking insane" on sight. |
| #4 | Dack Fayden, Helping Hand | Creature | $1.97 | 262 | Reveals from the top until you hit one creature per opponent, you take the enters triggers, then you give the creatures away goaded so they cannot attack you. |
| #5 | Ob Nixilis, the Ascended | Creature | $2.69 | 542 | A mono-white Ob Nixilis — and the card at the centre of the first-print token error below. |
| #6 | Teferi’s Reproach | Instant | $1.95 | 338 | Phases out an opponent. "What if Teferi’s Protection could only protect your opponents — would you still play it?" |
| #7 | Avacyn, Angel of Horror | Creature | $17.59 | 654 | A mono-black Avacyn, and by a wide margin the most valuable card in the deck. 654 recorded sales — the deepest liquidity of anything in the precon. |
| #8 | Jhoira, Weatherlight Corsair | Creature | $1.64 | 176 | The Echoverse Jhoira. |
| #9 | Venser, Fervent Forger | Creature | $1.78 | 229 | Copies spells and makes copies of creatures — one opener warned not to let opponents copy it. |
| #10 | Niv-Mizzet, Ghost Counsel | Creature | $5.99 | 548 | An Orzhov Niv-Mizzet that cares about life gain. Repeatedly flagged on camera as the deck’s best card-draw engine and a popular standalone commander pick. |
| #11 | Tamiyo, Upriser Crowned | Creature | $0.87 | 143 | A very high mana value Monarch card. |
| #12 | The Ur-Sphinx | Creature | $2.26 | 427 | The Ur-Dragon shifted to sphinxes. Openers expected this to be one of the set’s most-built commanders. |
| #13 | Darksteel Angel | Creature | $5.93 | 450 | Platinum Angel with indestructible and flying — you cannot lose the game and your opponent cannot win it. |
| #14 | Ginger, Queen of Sweets | Creature | $1.89 | 169 | Pairs with the deck’s Gingerbrute double-sided token. |
| #15 | Memnarch, the Warden | Creature | $2.28 | 521 | Creates two Myr on entry and draws a card per artifact when it attacks. |
| #16 | Turbulent Crater | Land | $3.03 | 349 | Enters untapped unless your opponents collectively control eight or more lands — a genuinely new land cycle. |
| #17 | Turbulent Shore | Land | $3.99 | 226 | Same cycle; the most valuable of the three. |
| #18 | Turbulent Wetlands | Land | $3.80 | 367 | Same cycle. All three also appear in collector boosters in extended art. |
| #19 | Akroma, Angel of Fury | Creature | $1.45 | 76 | The Echoverse Akroma. |
The reprints that carry real value
Beyond the new cards, these reprints are the deck's value floor:
| Card | USD | Sales |
|---|---|---|
| Flawless Maneuver | $9.99 | 420 |
| Reflecting Pool | $5.94 | 339 |
| Archfiend of Despair | $4.00 | 629 |
| Archon of Cruelty | $3.60 | 329 |
| Overlord of the Mistmoors | $2.28 | 62 |
| Elspeth, Sun’s Champion | $1.91 | 186 |
| Sol Ring | $1.82 | 242 |
| Arcane Signet | $1.35 | 128 |
| Command Tower | $1.35 | 225 |
One printing to be careful with: PriceCharting lists a Darksteel Angel [Foil] #13 at $21.74, but on only 10 recorded sales against 450 for the non-foil. Treat it as a thin listing rather than an established price. The same applies to Niv-Mizzet, Ghost Counsel [Extended Art Foil] #95 at $19.35, which has a single recorded sale.

Is It Worth the Money?
The sealed deck trades at about USD $56.03 on 80 recorded sales. Adding up every card in the list at its current tracked market price gives roughly $175. On paper that is a comfortable win.
In practice, three caveats matter more than the headline:
- The value is top-heavy. Avacyn, Angel of Horror alone is $17.59 — about a third of the sealed price. Add Flawless Maneuver ($9.99), Niv-Mizzet ($5.99), Darksteel Angel ($5.93), Reflecting Pool ($5.94) and Omnath ($4.19) and you have over $49 from six cards. Everything else averages well under $2, and 23 cards in the deck trade below a dollar.
- You cannot sell a precon at listed retail. Listed market prices are what buyers pay sellers with inventory and fees, not what you get breaking a deck. Three weeks after release these prices are also still settling downward.
- The markup is the whole problem. One prominent reviewer was unusually direct about it on camera: the deck is excellent, "but it's not worth more than $50 — I would question if it's even worth $50. People paying $75 and up, please don't do that." He added that when he rang round local stores in his area, most were selling at or near MSRP — so the markup is a marketplace problem, not a supply one.
The honest read: buy it at or near MSRP and it is a straightforwardly good deal, both to play and as a pile of cards. Buy it at $75+ and you are paying a premium for one Avacyn and a deck box. Check your local game store before an online marketplace.
The First-Print Angel Token Error
Wizards published a note alongside the decklist that is easy to miss and worth knowing:
This deck includes the 3/3 blue Angel token found in Reality Fracture Play Boosters and does not include the 4/4 white Angel token created by Ob Nixilis, the Ascended. Later printings of the Multiverse Reforged Commander deck will feature the 4/4 white Angel token, which you can also find in Reality Fracture Collector Boosters.
In other words: the first print run ships the wrong Angel token for its own card. There is no gameplay consequence — you can represent a token with anything, and the 4/4 white Angel exists in collector boosters if you want the correct one — but it does make first-printing decks identifiable, and it is the sort of detail that occasionally matters to sealed collectors later. If you are buying sealed to keep rather than to play, it is worth checking which printing you have.
What to Upgrade First
1. Fix the mana before you touch the spells
The 39-land base is reasonable for a precon — Reflecting Pool, Command Tower, Exotic Orchard, Path of Ancestry, Fabled Passage, the painlands and the Innistrad slow lands, plus four Signets and four Talismans. The weak link is the new Turbulent cycle: Turbulent Crater, Shore and Wetlands enter untapped only when your opponents collectively control eight or more lands, which in practice means they are tapped on the turns you most need them untapped. They are fine mid-game and bad early. Swap in any true duals, shocks or fetches you already own before changing anything else.
2. Pick a lane — tokens or reanimator
The precon is pulled in two directions, which is normal for a product that has to showcase a set. The token half is Jace himself plus Lingering Souls, Secure the Wastes, Dreadhorde Invasion, Martial Coup, Grand Crescendo, Skrelv's Hive and Shark Typhoon. The big-creature half is Archon of Cruelty, Archfiend of Despair, Serra's Emissary, Overlord of the Mistmoors, Akroma, with Mass Polymorph, Synthetic Destiny and Proteus Staff as the cheat-them-in package. Both are real; neither is supported deeply enough to beat a focused deck. Choosing one and cutting the other is the single highest-impact change you can make.
Worth noting the two halves overlap more than they look: a token deck is exactly what Mass Polymorph and Proteus Staff want, so the hybrid is deliberate. If you lean tokens, keep the polymorph package and cut the expensive bodies down to two or three; if you lean big creatures, cut the token-makers and add real reanimation.
3. Consider rebuilding around Niv-Mizzet or The Ur-Sphinx instead
Two cards in this deck drew more commander interest from openers than the face commander did. Niv-Mizzet, Ghost Counsel — an Orzhov Niv-Mizzet that draws off life gain — was repeatedly singled out as the card people most wanted to build around, and The Ur-Sphinx (the Ur-Dragon shifted to sphinxes) was predicted to be one of the set's most-built commanders. Both are in the 99 here. If Jace's token plan does not appeal, the deck is a reasonable starting shell for either.
4. The collector-booster upgrades
Most of the new cards have extended-art and foil versions that only come from collector boosters, and they are cheap enough to be worth buying as singles rather than opening for: Avacyn extended art ($25.74), Niv-Mizzet extended art ($9.99), The Ur-Sphinx extended-art foil ($10.49), Darksteel Angel extended art ($6.89), Omnath extended art ($6.10). A full extended-art upgrade of the deck's new cards runs well under the cost of a single collector box. Our Reality Fracture pull-rate guide covers why opening for them is the expensive route.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is in the Multiverse Reforged Commander deck?
A ready-to-play 100-card deck, a traditional foil borderless face commander (Jace, Multiverse Architect), a traditional foil borderless featured commander (Nissa, Leyline Tamer), 98 non-foil cards including 16 new-to-Magic cards, 10 non-foil double-sided tokens, a reference card and a deck box. It is the only Commander precon released alongside Reality Fracture.
Is the deck worth the money?
At MSRP, yes. The sealed deck trades around $56 and its cards total roughly $175 at listed market prices — but 23 cards trade under a dollar, the value is concentrated in about six cards, and you cannot liquidate a precon at retail. One prominent reviewer put it plainly: good deck, "not worth more than $50", and do not pay the $75+ marketplace markup. Check your local game store first.
What is the most valuable card in the deck?
Avacyn, Angel of Horror at about $17.59 with 654 recorded sales — the deepest liquidity of anything in the precon, and roughly a third of the sealed price on its own. The extended-art version from collector boosters runs about $25.74 on 490 sales, making it the most valuable Commander-set card in Reality Fracture by a wide margin.
What is the Angel token error?
Wizards confirmed the first printing ships the 3/3 blue Angel token from Reality Fracture Play Boosters rather than the 4/4 white Angel token that Ob Nixilis, the Ascended actually creates. Later printings will carry the correct token, which also appears in collector boosters. No gameplay consequence, but it identifies the first print run.
Can I get the new Echoverse legends outside the precon?
Yes, in collector boosters — mostly in extended art and foil. The two commanders also appear in collector boosters, the Secret Lair Bundle, Draft Night and as MTG Arena wildcards. The one genuine precon exclusive worth noting is the non-foil Nissa, Leyline Tamer, which comes only from the deck and the Secret Lair Bundle.
What should I upgrade first?
Mana, then focus. Replace the three Turbulent lands — they enter untapped only when your opponents collectively control eight or more lands, which is backwards from when you want them — with any true duals you own. Then choose between the deck's token half (Jace, Lingering Souls, Secure the Wastes, Dreadhorde Invasion, Martial Coup) and its big-creature reanimator half (Archon of Cruelty, Archfiend of Despair, Mass Polymorph, Synthetic Destiny, Proteus Staff) and cut the other. That decision beats any individual card swap.
