    Chains of Mephistopheles + Dredge

    Chains of Mephistopheles + Dredge
    Can anyone please explain how theese card work together?
    Let's say I have Chains in play and cycle Barren Moor with Life from the Loam in hand.
    Can I discard Loam with Chains, then dredge it back?
    Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before. He is full of murderous resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by their ignorance the hard way.

    Yes.
    Chains of Mephistopholes and Dredge are both effects that replace the draw.

    From the rules:
    419.9a If two or more replacement or prevention effects are attempting to modify the way an event affects an object or player, the affected object's controller (or its owner if it has no controller) or the affected player chooses one to apply. If any of those effects are self-replacement effects (see rule 419.6d), one of them must be chosen. If not, but any of those effects would modify under whose control an object would come into play, one of them must be chosen. Otherwise, any of the applicable effects may be chosen. Once the chosen effect has been applied, this process is repeated (taking into account only replacement or prevention effects that would now be applicable) until there are no more left to apply. If two or more players have to make these choices at the same time, choices are made in APNAP order (see rule 103.4).
    So you can chose to replace the Draw with a Discard -> Draw from Chains, and then replace that Draw with the Dredge effect.
