Jace, Telepath Unbound

Level 1
Bounding Krasis
Separatist Voidmage
Screeching Skaab
Bonded Construct
Sigiled Starfish
Psychic Rebuttal
Throwing Knife
Claustrophobia
Disperse
Artificer’s Epiphany

Deck playstyle
At level 1 you have no abilities and a restrictive deck composition. Jace starts off with 5/2/3 creatures/spells/supports. You want creatures that have good power-to-mana ratios and also aren’t too expensive lest they take too many turns to summon out. Bear in mind your own colour matches for only 4 mana at this level.

Separatist Voidmage, Disperse and Claustrophobia help you buy time to set up your deck by disrupting the tempo of your opponent’s deck. Sigiled Starfish and Artificer’s Epiphany help with draw to setup the deck while Throwing Knife provides a nice boost in damage.

Level 40
Mizzium Meddler
Harbinger of the Tides
Jhessian Thief
Thopter Spy Network
Jace’s Sanctum
Sphinx’s Tutelage
Claustrophobia
Disperse
Turn to Frog
Talent of the Telepath

Deck playstyle
At level 40 you gain access to your planeswalker abilities and increased mana gains.

This deck plays around mana denial. Mizzium Meddler, Jace’s Sanctum and Sphinx’s Tutelage all make it harder for the opponent to cast a card. What makes it harder is Jhessian Thief and Thopter Spy Network providing bonus draw to amplify the effect of Sphinx’s Tutelage. Top this off with Jace’s third ability to keep the lockdown real.

Whatever does go through either gets bounced back with Harbinger of Tides or Disperse, or gets polymorphed by Turn to Frog. To be extra cruel, turn the creature into a Frog before Dispersing it to ensure that it goes straight to the graveyard. Alternatively, you can leave the creature to be disabled by Claustrophobia.

Notable cards/combos
Sphinx’s Tutelage + Draw: Whenever you play Sphinx’s Tutelage, you want to ensure that you have ways of getting additional draws each turn. This helps to amplify the effect which can more or less ensure that the opponent never gets to play a card again. However, one has to prudently exile cards from hand to ensure that there is always sufficient space for the additional draw and hence for Sphinx’s Tutelage’s effect to trigger.

Level 60
Disciple of the Ring
Harbinger of the Tides
Soulblade Djinn
Thopter Spy Network
Throwing Knife
Brawler’s Plate
Disperse
Turn to Frog
Talent of the Telepath
Day’s Undoing

Deck playstyle
At level 60, you gain access to your planeswalker’s full potential. Blue has some of the strongest mythic cards in Origins.

Brawler’s Plate coupled with Jace’s first ability (-6/-0) means that your creature can take out the opponent’s first creature with minimal damage. For anything too big, use Disperse to force the opponent to match all that mana to summon it out again. Or used Turn to Frog.

Day’s Undoing is a great draw tool with a nice small 3 mana bonus to each newly drawn card. Thopter Spy Network will ensure that the pressure keeps mounting each turn with the +4/+4 worth of Thopters every turn.

Notable cards/combos
Disciple of the Ring: Disciple of the Ring’s activate ability gives +4/+4, drains 4 mana and disables the opponent’s first Reach or Defender creature all at once, making it a pain for anyone to deal with.

Detail - The deck build around these theory
1.AI will use 1st ability the most and sometime 2nd. Jace reduce the attack which mean his deck strategy should be about defender.
2.The deck for each Planeswalker must also contain only cards of the expansion it came in. It suppose to face the deck in the same condition.
3.AI can’t oder combo. So we avoid complicated play.
