In 2021, not much has changed with the deck in that it still revolves around one card and that is Bazaar of Baghdad.īazaar is so important to the deck that it is often the only 'Land' in the deck and the entire concept of mulligan'ing in Dredge is based on the necessary need to have an opening hand with Bazaar of Baghdad in it. This fuels a powerful self-mill plan that utilizes free creature threats like Narcomoeba and Ichorid to build a board state and defeat the opponent with the free creatures and spells from the graveyard. Whenever you draw a card, you can replace the draw with a Dredge (provided there are enough cards in your library to Dredge that number) and instead mill that many cards from the top of your library and then place the card with Dredge that you used for the replacement effect back into your hand. For those that don't know here's how it works a card with Dredge in the graveyard has a number on it (Dredge 6 for example). By now, mostly anyone reading this should be ultra familiar with Dredge given its storied history in not just Vintage but in other formats as well (such as in Modern where Golgari Grave-Troll was unbanned and then later re-banned). It does a lot of things that are distinctly different than what one would expect of 'tap lands for mana, cast spells' and instead focuses heavily on the utilization of the Dredge mechanic. This week we're looking away from typical Magic games and instead looking at the Dark Arts.

With that being said, let's get right to it! Cram Session - The Dark Arts of DredgeĮternal Weekend 2021 is on the way next weekend, and we're continuing our look at various Vintage decks that one might enjoy or play in these events.
