Feb 4, 2014Chilli_Axe posted a message on Launch Giveaway!My favourite card is definitely Manor Gargoyle. It's extremely flavourful, it's relevant in limited, it's actually a pretty great card and you can pull off some shenanigans with how its ability is worded. Everything about the card is just perfect.Posted in: Announcements

Graveyard is fanned out in rows across the top of the playmat, and a second row can start on top of the first row overlapping so I can read which cards are in my graveyard at all times without taking up too much space
Creatures are in the middle, with any suspended gargadons on the left side of this area (not relevant for me anymore as I'm back to loam / conflagrate after testing earlier today), and lands down the bottom. The deck goes on the right side somewhere between lands & creatures, and exiled cards are turned sideways and sit above the deck
To dredge, I put my hand on the mat face down with the dredger on top of it face up, then pick up my deck and deal out the appropriate number of cards face-down so my opponent can count them before flipping them all over at once & putting them into the graveyard. Also I announce my triggers but don't mess with my graveyard by turning cards sideways to denote narcomoeba or amalgam triggers
I play dredge in legacy too and this setup works equally well for it as it does for modern dredge btw
won another SCG tournamentis being played at another SCG tournament by multiple players with the bridge / gargadon combo http://www.starcitygames.com/events/coverage/dredge_with_todd_anderson.htmlI know we like to say it has consistency issues but it seems like it's broken enough for it to be worth destabilising the deck like that. No copies of loam feels super bold, but the list that won that SCG classic last week also didn't play it, so maybe it's more of a crutch than it seems
Don't know why you're concerned about discarding sideboard cards to inquiry though, it should be the first card you side out imo
Have you tried a 1 of Phantasmagorian for discarding dredgers? It's kind of a nombo with Conflagrate / Loam but your version doesn't run that package anyway, so I think it'd be helpful. Plus it helps to get bloodghasts & prized amalgams out of your hand in the early game for no mana investment
