More monocolored spells with cascade followed in Commander Legends, which also featured the first colorless spells with cascade ( Maelstrom Colossus and Ingenuity Engine).

Unstable had one monocolored cascader - also red - in a variant of Garbage Elemental. Additionally, the 'filler effect' that cascade ability was attached to swung wildly in power: compare two four-mana cascade cards Captured Sunlight and Kathari Remnant with the most infamous Cascade spell Bloodbraid Elf, where gaining 4 life is worth less than a mana, Will-o-the-wisp is perhaps one to two mana, compared to a 3/2 haste, which is evaluated between three and four mana.īeing introduced in the multicolored-only set Alara Reborn, Cascade was printed exclusively on multicolored cards until Modern Horizons, which featured the monocolored Throes of Chaos. This ended up being a major oversight due to the Time Spiral cycle of 0-cost sorceries. Originally, the minimum cost of a Cascade spell was locked at 3 mana to force deckbuilding concessions, as a 2-mana cascader would find any given 1-drop. Then put all cards exiled this way that weren't cast on the bottom of your library in a random order. You may cast that card without paying its mana cost.

When you cast a spell with Cascade, exile cards from the top of your library until you exile a non land card whose mana value is less than the cascading spell.
