Since I had a World Magic Cup Qualifier (WMCQ) coming up at the time and I was still a university student, I had a lot of time to work on the deck. Life from the Loam was the perfect card for the deck, as it helped you guarantee land drops for Bloodghast and flashing back Faithless Looting, as well as growing your hand size to set up a big Conflagrate. That’s when we realised we could adopt the technology of Life from the Loam with Conflagrate that Jason Chung put to good use when he made the Top 8 of GP Melbourne with Zombie Infestation during Eldrazi Winter. We had this idea in the past, but with the printing of the two new cards from Shadows over Innistrad, we finally felt that we had enough tools to make the deck work.Īfter Shi Tian came up with an initial sketch of the deck, we quickly realised that we needed some interaction or else we wouldn’t be able to beat cards like Scavenging Ooze or even a big Tarmogoyf. Shi Tian came up with the concept of using “enablers” ( Faithless Looting, Insolent Neonate and Tormenting Voice) alongside dredge cards ( Stinkweed Imp and Golgari Grave-Troll) to essentially mill our deck, which will reward us with “free” creatures in the form of Bloodghast, Narcomoeba and Prized Amalgam.
When Golgari Grave-Troll was unbanned in Modern, it didn’t see any play for quite some time, until mid-2016, when we noticed the potential in Insolent Neonate and Prized Amalgam that was just printed in Shadows over Innistrad.
My history with Modern Dredge is, to put it bluntly, helping to create the deck with Hall of Famer and former MPL player Lee Shi Tian. It has taken me multiple years to get all the cards – finding all the Chinese versions of the dredge cards from Ravnica: City of Guilds was extremely difficult! My history with Dredge This is a photo of my current deck! I still have a couple of cards I want to upgrade, but I am very close to completing it.
