Playing dredge today is like playing frost death knights and shadow priests in WoW.
it used to be very powerfull, it still is, but the nerfs (in the case of dredge it's the thousand hate cards) ruined it =/
Yet, ppl hold up to it, and actually still play it, hoping that it will come back to it's former glory.

We must find ways to innovate, or we will keep the "up and down" in the usage lists forever, this weekend I will try something different, it will most likely fail utterly but I will try.

I wil try -4 Pimps, and try out phantasmagorian or street wraith or even some weird combination of both
I will also give brainstorm another try to offshot DR shaman (but that will be later, I wil test W/O PIMP first) and it's best to find anwsers than our current draw engines.

we can't go on like this, our opponents learned how to play against us, our g1 (the strongest point of the deck) is harder than ever, we must adapt (either the main or the sideboard), it's time to re-define our staples, and what the deck really need to succeed.
