    Re: [Primer] Dredge

    I'm glad to see our deck putting up results in my absence. Here are a couple thoughts from perusing those top 8's and 16's:

    I would encourage you to get into contact with regular Dredge pilots. I say this because you will not (unfortunately) find many examples of Dredge decks if you peruse lists on Star City or...

    Re: [Primer] Dredge

    I wouldn't play more than one. I don't really care what you cut to play it: 11th-12th dredger, a draw spell, the 13th-14th land. You could not cut anything and play it as card 61 instead. I would...

    It depends, of course, on the type of storm you're playing against. A standard blue/black storm list probably has black as the best color to name. Note that in games...

    Re: [Deck] Dark Depths

    By parsing the rules texts, it doesn't seem like it works that way. This might be because the operative word "get" would not affect Depths' enters-the-battlefield-with text. I would think of "get" as...

    Lol, this is true. I'm stuck on that from my poker-playing days. All of my opponents seemed to cease their chat when I discarded my first card in game 1's.
