You can play them when they hit the graveyard!Ĭreeping Chill and Narcomoeba are two really cool cards that basically are played when they get milled from our deck to the graveyard. Phantasmagorian is totally an awesome card to have in our starting hand, but if our opponent happens to play one of those cards that can clean our graveyard is still better to discard only a single card per turn. This is awesome because it let us fill our graveyard really quickly but it can also be a really dangerous play: after a move like this one we will find ourselves with 2-3 cards in hand, so if our opponents play something like a Bojuka Bog we will find ourselves with nothing in the graveyard while having to wait until we can discard a card again. Phantasmagorian instead can be used to drop our whole hand to the graveyard by abusing of the stack: we can activate its ability by discarding three cards and, in response, of the same ability we can reactivate it to drop other three cards before Phantasmagorian gets back to the hand. The Dredgers are pretty straightforward: discard them to the graveyard and use their Dredge ability when you should draw. To do this we use dredger ( Golgari Grave-Troll, Golgari Thug and Stinkweed Imp) or the aforementioned Phantasmagorian. This thing really depends on who I’m against: if the other deck has a slow gameplan, some time mulligan for a better hand could still be a lot more beneficial even if we are giving our opponent another free turn.Īs said before, the base of this deck is to fill the graveyard as much as possible to start triggering effects or playing spells from it. Lots of Manaless Dredge players will tell you to never mulligan when playing this deck, even if you don’t have a dredger in your starting hand but I found out that sometime it is better to mulligan than hope to topdeck a dredge. Playing in this way sure is risky as there are many things that can go against us if we happen to not be on the draw we basically give our opponent a free turn Graveyard hate can completely shut the deck down Mulligan is always a really risky thing to do as it will for sure put us one turn behind. The cards we are going to discard will be a card with the Dredge keyword or Phantasmagorian this card is the first piece that we will use to start filling our graveyard with cards on our deck that can be played from the graveyard or have some triggered effect when they or other cards are put in the graveyard. This is because our first turn will be a simple draw and the discard to hand size. So… how do you play spells? With Manaless Dredge is important to be always on the draw when starting a game. Noxious Revival can be used to get back a Narcomoeba that ended up in the graveyard without triggering for some reason or fetch out a unmask, kobold, or street wraith that I milled to dredge.The first question people ask me is “Is it really manaless?” Yes! There are zero mana sources in the deck no lands, no mana producing artifacts and neither weird free rituals like Simian Spirit Guide. Maybeboard: Mishra's Bauble Prized Amalgam Vine Dryad Changelog: -4 Creeping Chill, +4 Contagion -1 Flayer of the Hatebound, +1 Thassa's Oracle (Just realized Thassa with Balustrade spy is insta-win.) -4 Contagion, +4 Unmask (Free discard targeting self to be able to drop phantasmagorian easier than having to wait for discard step) -4 Shambling Shell, +4 Crimson Kobolds (Make it easier to get some creatures out to pay for Dread Return, Shambling Shell just doesn't dredge deep enough to be worth it form the playtesting I've done) -1 Flayer of the Hatebound, +1 Balustrade Spy -2 Mindbreak Trap, +2 Noxious Revival (I've never been able to use mindbreak trap its just sit in my hand as a dead card. I'm currently trying to build a significantly usable sideboard for the current meta and speed up the mainboard in general. This deck is a budget legacy list based on many of the common manaless dredge lists.
