[Video] All the Flavors of Dredge!

In this episode of Eternal Durdles, host Zac Clark interviews Mahfuz Van Gogh, a well-known dredge player, about the different builds of the dredge deck in Magic: The Gathering. They discuss the current state of dredge, including the manaless dredge and rainbow dredge builds. Mahfuz explains the unique mechanics and strategies of each build, highlighting the challenges and rewards of playing dredge. He also shares his thoughts on the position of dredge in the current metagame and the potential impact of new cards on the archetype. Keywords Magic the Gathering, dredge, deck, builds, manaless dredge, rainbow dredge, blue dredge, turbo dredge, metagame Takeaways Dredge is a unique and complex archetype in Magic: The Gathering, requiring a deep understanding of the mechanics and the metagame. There are different builds of the dredge deck, including manaless dredge, rainbow dredge, blue dredge, and turbo dredge, each with its own strengths and strategies. Dredge is a solid tier 2 deck in the current metagame, with favorable matchups against control decks and combo decks with a single win condition. New cards, such as Satoru the Infiltrator and Harvester of Misery, have the potential to enhance the performance of blue dredge and offer new approaches to the archetype. Playing dredge requires careful sequencing of plays, understanding the opponent's graveyard hate, and baiting their responses to maximize the deck's potential.

The hosts share their insights on key cards and matchups, including the importance of graveyard hate against lands decks and the challenges of playing against Terminus. Billy and Mapson discuss the use of the graveyard in Legacy decks, the importance of sideboarding, the benefits of coaching, and their thoughts on the Thunder Junction set. They also touch on different formats like Pioneer and Modern. They highlight the significance of understanding the meta, learning from losses, and seeking advice from experienced players. They mention specific cards like Tinybones, Freestrider Lookout, and Geralf, Fleshwright, that they believe could have an impact in Legacy.

[Video] DOOMSDAY: How Long is Too Long w/ Eric Ratkowski

Zac Invites Eric Ratkowski to discuss the position of Doomsday in the meta. They cover topics such as how long is too long to during a Doomsday player's pile making, Doomsday's performance against different deck archetypes, and the potential impact of new cards from Thunder Junction. Eric shares his insights as a Doomsday player and discusses the favorable and unfavorable matchups for the deck. He also mentions the challenges of finding new cards that can be added to the Doomsday deck without breaking its balance. Takeaways The length of time to wait during a Doomsday combo depends on the player's discretion, but around two and a half minutes is a reasonable guideline. Doomsday is favored against fair green decks and tempo decks that lack counter magic, but struggles against control decks and combo decks with heavy disruption. Insatiable Avarice is a potentially interesting card for Doomsday, as it can draw cards and act as a non-revealing personal tutor, providing additional resources for the combo. Finding new cards to add to the Doomsday deck is challenging, as they need to be powerful enough to make an impact without breaking the balance of the deck.
