A-Tanazir Quandrix

Legendary Creature — Elder Dragon3 generic manaGreen manaBlue mana

The "A-" prefix marks this as a rebalanced Alchemy variant, and here the change is unusually quiet: the digital version simply upgraded the body from a 4/4 to a 5/5, leaving both triggers untouched. What matters, then, is the same design tension the original carried. This wants a board split two ways. The entry trigger targets a single creature and doubles its counters, so it rewards having one fat, well-counted threat already down. The attack trigger runs the opposite direction: it flattens the base power and toughness of your other creatures up to the dragon's own until end of turn, which pays off a spread of small bodies (tokens, one-drop counter creatures, anything cheap enough to swarm) by converting a wide board into a wave of 5/5s. So the two abilities pull toward different shapes, one favoring a single counter-loaded target, the other favoring breadth, and the deck that gets the most out of Tanazir Quandrix has to service both. Flying and trample on a 5/5 keep it honest when neither engine has fuel: it is a real clock on an empty board, so it never sits dead. The counter-doubling and the board-wide power-set are the same two halves that shipped in paper; the Alchemy bump just made the frame a touch harder to trade with in combat.
