Multiverse Reforged: the decklist and what the cards are worth

On September 16, 2026, Wizards of the Coast published the full list for Multiverse Reforged, the only Commander deck in Reality Fracture. The deck hits stores on October 2, costs US$49.99 and is led by a four-color Jace. With the list in hand, we can answer the question anyone thinking of buying it has: what comes in the box, and how much are the cards that already exist worth?

What happened

The official announcement includes all 100 cards and the product contents:

a ready-to-play 100-card deck in white, blue, black and red (no green);
two foil commanders with borderless art: Jace, Multiverse Architect, the face commander, and Nissa, Leyline Tamer, the alternate commander;
98 non-foil cards, 16 of them new;
10 double-sided tokens, a reference card and the deck box.

Counting the two commanders, that makes 18 cards that didn't exist before. Scryfall confirms that count: 18 cards appear only in the Reality Fracture Commander (FRC) set. Some sites say "16 new cards" because they didn't count the commanders.

In its official buyer's guide, Wizards recommends Multiverse Reforged for experienced players. For beginners, it recommends the five Foundations Commander Decks, which come out the same day at US$29.99 each.

How the deck works

The plan is to trade small pieces for big creatures. Jace is a planeswalker that can be your commander:

+1: draw two cards, then put a card from your hand on the bottom of your library;
−3: exile another creature or planeswalker you control and reveal cards from the top until you find a creature or planeswalker, which goes straight onto the battlefield;
at the beginning of combat on each opponent's turn, he charges {2}; an opponent who doesn't pay can't attack your Jaces.

Nissa is a 5/5 creature with deathtouch and vigilance. Whenever a land enters under your control, you draw a card, and the first time each turn you reveal cards from your library until you find a creature to put onto the battlefield.

The deck has several token makers to serve as "fuel", such as Secure the Wastes, Lingering Souls and Shark Typhoon. It also includes the classic Mass Polymorph and a set of new legends with alternate versions of familiar characters: Avacyn, Ob Nixilis, Niv-Mizzet, Tamiyo, Venser, Jhoira and Memnarch, among others.

Staple reprints include Sol Ring, Arcane Signet, Swords to Plowshares, Path to Exile, Brainstorm, Fact or Fiction and Chromatic Lantern.

What the reprints are worth

We cross-referenced the official list with Scryfall prices (TCGplayer market price, in US dollars), always using the cheapest non-foil version of each card. We left out the 11 basic lands, the 18 new cards (no price yet) and two cards from the main Reality Fracture set. That leaves 69 reprints. As of September 16:

the 69 cards add up to US$135.22, about 2.7 times the deck's suggested price;
the five most valuable account for US$75.58, or 56% of the total:
Archfiend of Despair: US$23.84;
Flawless Maneuver: US$20.87;
Reflecting Pool: US$15.32;
Archon of Cruelty: US$7.98;
Serra's Emissary: US$7.57;
14 cards are worth US$2 or more and add up to US$100.72;
42 cards are worth US$1 or less, and 32 of them US$0.50 or less.

Two caveats. First, this total is what it costs to buy each card as a single, not what you get when selling. Second, when a card is reprinted, older versions can get cheaper, and that effect isn't reflected in today's numbers yet.

A detail for collectors: the Angel token

Wizards itself notes that early printings of the deck come with the blue 3/3 Angel token, the same one found in Play Boosters. They don't include the white 4/4 token that Ob Nixilis, the Ascended creates. Later printings will include the white 4/4, which is also found in Collector Boosters.

If you play Ob Nixilis, you'll need another token or a marker. If you collect sealed product, the two printings will have different contents.

What changes for buyers, sellers and collectors

If you want to play the deck, the two borderless foil commanders only exist in this box for now, along with the other 16 new cards. To build it from singles, you depend on people opening the deck.

If you're thinking of buying it just for the cards, do the math carefully. More than half the value sits in five cards, and 42 of the 69 reprints are worth a dollar or less. If you only want Archfiend of Despair or Flawless Maneuver, compare with the single price first: who sells Archfiend of Despair and who sells Flawless Maneuver.

If you have these cards to sell, the older versions of the reprints will share the market with the deck's copies from October 2. The prices above are from September 16. Check again before listing.

If you collect, note the Angel token difference between printings. And the dates: prerelease from September 25 to October 1, MTG Arena on September 29 and stores on October 2.

If you're new to Commander, Wizards' own recommendation is different: the Foundations Commander Decks, at US$29.99.

Our take

By the numbers, Multiverse Reforged delivers more than it costs in cards that already exist. But that value is concentrated in a few pieces, and the four-color mana base will need tuning for anyone who wants a more consistent deck.

For players who enjoy decks that put big creatures into play in unexpected ways and want the new legends, it makes sense. For anyone who only wants one or two cards, buying singles tends to be cheaper. This is opinion, not a price forecast: check the prices closer to release.

How many new cards are in the deck?

Eighteen: the two borderless foil commanders — Jace, Multiverse Architect and Nissa, Leyline Tamer — plus 16 more cards. Some sites say 16 because they leave the commanders out; Scryfall confirms 18 in the FRC set.

Do the reprints pay for the deck?

At Scryfall's market price on September 16, 2026, the 69 reprints add up to US$135.22 at their cheapest non-foil versions, about 2.7 times the MSRP. But 56% of that sits in five cards, and 42 of the 69 are worth a dollar or less — and that total is what buying singles costs, not what selling them pays.

Which Angel token is in the box?

The first print runs include the blue 3/3 Angel token, the same one from Play Boosters, not the white 4/4 that Ob Nixilis, the Ascended creates. Later print runs include the white 4/4.

Wizards itself lists Multiverse Reforged as a deck for experienced players and points beginners to the five Foundations Commander Decks, released the same day at US$29.99 each.
