![]() ![]() Faerie Macabre – This is another card that is generally quite weak versus Dredge. The good news for Dredge players is that Extirpate is usually weak against you, as you will often need to be Extirpated 3 times to get locked out of a game, and a single Extirpate does relatively little but slow down the game. It is also quite good against anything playing Life From the Loam. After the jump let’s take a look at the available options that are most often played.Įxtirpate – This is seeing tons of play right now to neuter the Vengevine aspect of Survival decks. This is great news for Dredge since people are now packing graveyard hate that is quite weak against Dredge. Nowadays Vengevine Madness is slowly starting to dominate, and various decks and their sideboards are adapting to help fight the Vengevine menace, and are tailoring graveyard hate specifically for attacking this threat. A lot of people dislike this characteristic of Legacy (and old Extended formats), but I think it’s great. Tons of decks are viable and therefore it’s very hard to attack or defend the format from one specific angle. And come on, you know you're excited to sleeve up Grumag Angler.Legacy is a format that is constantly in flux. ![]() I'd be curious to know how this build fares against Tron, but barring Tron and Amulet Bloom I can see this deck being very well-positioned in Modern. Meanwhile, Gnaw to the Bone provides a card that burn will usually need two Skullcracks to beat. I'd be surprised if Amulet Bloom wasn't at least one of Tautic's losses, but Abrupt Decay, Murderous Cut and Thoughtseize give this deck a lot of game against the more reasonable combo decks in the format. ![]() The deck's general resilience to Abrupt Decay is also not for nothing. Lingering Souls is strong, but 12 creatures that easily come back from the graveyard presents better longevity. That's likely Tautic's intention with this build. Arguably the best zombie fish ever printed.Ī lot of the Abzan lists present at the PT were trying very hard to break the Abzan mirror. I had heard buzz about Lotleth Troll, but Tautic had to dig pretty deep to find this zombie to enable his Gravecrawlers. Despite being a totally serviceable draft common, I don't think anybody was expecting to play against a Gurmag Angler in the Modern portion of the PT. ![]()
