Deck Guide
Why Play This Deck
This Questing Beast voltron deck leverages the commander's natural evasion against small creatures and built-in protection from damage prevention to create explosive commander damage wins. The deck combines efficient equipment and auras with powerful pump effects like Unnatural Growth and Berserk to threaten lethal commander damage as early as turn 6-7. Fog effects provide asymmetrical protection, allowing you to attack freely while opponents can't swing back effectively.
Play Summary
Deploy Questing Beast turn 4 and immediately begin pressuring opponents with its natural evasion and vigilance. Layer on equipment like Shadowspear and Lost Jitte for incremental advantage, then close games with massive pump spells or double-strike effects. Use fog effects to attack safely while building up your board presence. The deck can pivot between aggressive voltron kills and midrange value plays depending on the game state.
Key Synergies
Garruk's Uprising draws a card when Questing Beast enters (power 4+) and grants trample to push through the final points of commander damage
Questing Beast's evasion against small creatures guarantees Toski will connect for card draw, creating a powerful engine
Saryth provides hexproof protection when Questing Beast attacks and can grant deathtouch to other creatures for additional value
These pump effects can double or triple Questing Beast's power for explosive commander damage kills, with Blackblade scaling with lands
One-sided fog effects let you attack freely while preventing opponent counterattacks, with Rogue's Passage providing guaranteed evasion for the finishing blow
Opening Hand
Look for 2-3 lands, early ramp (Llanowar Elves, Rampant Growth), and either protection (Heroic Intervention, Blossoming Defense) or equipment (Shadowspear, Lightning Greaves). Mulligan hands without early plays or ways to protect Questing Beast once it enters play. Prioritize hands that can deploy the commander on curve with immediate protection.
