How to play Magic: The Gathering - Ixalan Planeswalker Deck: Jace Ingenious Mind-Mage

Start by shuffling your 60-card deck, which is mainly made up of blue cards, including creatures, spells and artifacts. Make sure your deck is well mixed before starting the match.

If you draw a weak starting hand, you can make a mulligan, which allows you to draw a new hand with one less card. In general, it's important to have enough lands in your starting hand to ensure that you can cast your spells in the early turns.

Use Jace, Ingenious Mind-Mage, to control cards and gain an advantage in play. Its +1 ability allows you to draw a card, which can speed up your game. The -2 ability can be used to grant a creature you control flying and challenge opponents' blocks.

Use your creatures to form synergies and take advantage of abilities such as flying or temporary invulnerability. Creatures with these abilities can help directly attack opponents' life points.

Plan to use your mana control and countermagic spells wisely, keeping your opponents in check and protecting their important cards. This can include using counters or returning your opponent's cards to their hand.

Don't hesitate to summon Jace when you can protect him from attacks and use his abilities to maximize your advantage on the field. His ultimate ability can become devastating if you manage to activate it, so always keep this win condition in mind.

Remember to manage your game timeline well, prioritizing drawing cards, managing mana resources, and maintaining continuous control over the board to ensure victory.
