When I saw the GP kobe list it lade me try it right away.
Something didn’t feel good. Yes, the deck can win with the inasane eldrazi hands, tks into reality smasher on turn 4 but something was lacking. The deck didn’t have the depth i was thinking of. Scullers didn’t feel as strong and the combo with strangler wasn’t that strong, it was cute but not a game changing state.
So I decided to cut out the white color, just leaving path to exiles in the main and strong white cards in the sb in the form of rest in peace and stony silence.
I don’t have modo, so i used xmage for testing.
It looks and feels stronger, a more solid build.
My initial list featured 4 wrench mind and the full playset of mindstone and relics.
I play x2 urborg to help me cast those wrench mind
After testing for a while, they didn’t feel as strong as i thought they would be, so i cut them and added 4 inquisition + 2 thoughtseize. It’s a lot better. I also added x4 matter reshaper as well as bontu’s last reckoning in the main deck.
Mind stone is very good against blood moon effects, i’m running 3
I will post the list later if you guys want
Play tested a dredge list with 16 lands, 4 simian spirit guides and 4 golgari thugs. Simian spirit guides made me achieve nasty turns, also, you can put it on top of your library if its in your graveyard when golgari thug dies, helping you flashback conflagrate easier and faithless. I cut 1 neonate, added an additional darkblast. The deck is super powerful still. I will play the version I've been testing in a GPT this weekend.
Bannings affected the whole meta, that means, there might be a resurgence in midrange strategies, dredge prays on those strategies.
Dredge got a big hit with the grave troll banning but i still believe its a powerful deck, it has to be more explosive.
Adding thugs is a no brainer, but that also means the deck loses a -2 dredge so we need to compensate with explosiveness. I believe that adding a combination of simian spirit guides, burning inquiries and street wraiths can do the trick.
