Quandrix, the Proof

Legendary Creature — Elder Dragon · {4}{G}{U} · Green/Blue commander

Flying, trample Cascade (When you cast this spell, exile cards from the top of your library until you exile a nonland card that costs less. You may cast it without paying its mana cost. Put the exiled cards on the bottom in a random order.) Instant and sorcery spells you cast from your hand have cascade.

What a Quandrix, the Proof deck needs

Plays as spellslinger. What the commander asks of the other 99 — read from the card and checked by hand.

• expensive spells only — cascade and free casts take the next cheaper card, so a cheap card is a defect
• cheap instants and sorceries (every one you cast feeds it)

The Quandrix, the Proof deck plan

The roles the Forge fills for this commander, and how many cards of each.

• 32× Mana value at or above the floor — for a cascade commander a cheap card is a DEFECT, not a bargain
• 4× Evasion that does NOT target or attach — for a commander your own auras and equipment cannot legally touch
• 22× Instants and sorceries — for a magecraft/prowess commander the spell COUNT is the engine
• 5× Actually remove one problem permanent — preventing its damage is not removing it
• 9× Find the exact card the plan needs
• 2× Answer a spell or ability before it resolves
• 1× Answer a whole board at once
• 7× Refill your hand
• 2× Keep a permanent you control alive through removal

Best cards for Quandrix, the Proof

Ranked by an engine that reads what each card does — its real cost, its delay and how reliably it works — rather than counting how often other people play it.
