Jace, Memory Adept


"Jace, Memory Adept" is a card from the "M12" set.  "Jace, Memory Adept" is a plainswalker that is powerful for any mil deck.  Jace's (+1) ability allows his controller to draw a card and make an opposing player take one card off of the top of their library and put it into the graveyard.  This is an ok ability if you are trying to build up to his last ability and target a larger number of opponents, or trying to draw a card.  Jace's (0) ability allows him to take 10 cards off the top of a target players library and put them into the graveyard.  This is a great ability if you are playing against a single opponent.  Jace's (-7) ability allows his controller to make any number of players each draw twenty cards.  This is an amazing ability if you are facing off against a large number of opponents and are trying to mil their decks, however at the same time giving your opponents the ability to pick and choose what cards they want to keep.  Or in a blue-black deck make opponents draw twenty cards then discard their hands.  In all this new Jace is designed for both single opponent and multiple opponent game play.  

Great for blue, mil, blue-black, and control decks.      

Good:
-(0) ability is powerful in single opponent game play
-(-7) ability has great potential in single and multiple opponent game play
-(+1) ability is ok allows you to draw a card, but is a little weak

Bad:
-A 5 mana costing plainswalker, a little high compared to past versions of Jace.  

Scully Rating: 9.2 out of 10
