But the printing of Force of Vigor changed this and actually put Mana-Less Dredge on the map of competitive Legacy strategies. Mana-Less Dredge was seen as somewhat of a " meme deck" or a deck of lesser power since it would concede the game most the time the opponent landed a Graveyard-hate permanent on the board - with players even saying things like the strategy of the deck for Graveyard-hate was to concede. Although the strategy slightly varies from each one, many of the cards are present in both lists. It is considered an Aggro- Combo strategy.īoth types of Dredge decks employ the same self-mill strategy. It is a powerful strategy that is present in Legacy, Modern and Vintage. It draws its name from the Mechanic Dredge and there are two major subtypes of Legacy Dredge decks: Mana-Less and Dredge. They'll passively pick up loyalty by using these abilities, keeping them in play for a lot longer.Dredge is a self-mill-based deck. This is especially great for Planeswalkers with zero-cost abilities, like Tyvar Kjell Garruk, Cursed Huntman and Ugin, The Spirit Dragon. Every ability is effectively 'cheaper', with negative abilities taking less of a chunk out of your 'walkers, and positive ones having more of a boost to your loyalty. The second benefit does apply more specifically to Planeswalkers, but having loyalty abilities cost +1 loyalty extra is something a lot of unaware players might trip over, thanks to it being framed more like a negative. Being able to get chaff off the top of your library is always a good move, and for four mana Carth does it excellently. You don't need to hit a Planeswalker card with it, and if you do you can just opt to put it on the bottom of your library along with the rest. However, Carth has two incredible abilities that make him a real powerhouse. A black/green Planeswalker-heavy deck might sound a bit limited, especially when you consider how many of Golgari's strategies care more about creatures.
