My take on how to order cards in the graveyard But I don't like this approach - it takes too much time to do this, also it's harder to navigate what was already Dredged and what we are searching for now. Some players like to arrange graveyard into sections - lands, payoff, Dredgers, and garbage. It's better than a pile but still - it would be too easy to miss something. And I guarantee you that after 2-3 Dredgers this situation will repeat. And the worst feeling ever is when your opponent is asking you if they can see the grave - so they have to take it, waste 1 or 2 minutes to check for everything they can and give it back to you. Every Dredge players need to have a visible graveyard. Keeping your cards in a pile is like not being able to see what do you have in hand - eventually, you will miss an important trigger or forget about a lethal Conflag or BloodyG. In Dredge, the graveyard is just as (if not even more) important than the hand. It's Turn 4, I just played a Cathartic Reunion, with a land in hand and it's a turn 4 kill with Bloodghasts + triggered Chill + Conflagrate. At first, I'll show you some bad ideas based on random goldfishing :p Players don't have any idea how to put cards into their graveyard to see all options while not sacrificing too much time during the process. Nearly all problems with how to pilot Dredge stem from here. Learn how to organize your milled cards in the graveyard I hope that my advice will help you to become a better player in the future.ġ. Don't worry, you are not the only one who has these sorts of problems :p Many players were asking me about the basics of being of Dredge player, so many that I decided to write a short article about how to start. You are not drawing cards, there are so many triggers firing around and it's even hard to keep all your cards ordered. But after the first game, you realized that it's not the same Magic you used to know. Your friend convinced you to buy into Modern (because it's the best format in Magic) and you decided to jump onto Dredge train. So, you've been playing Standard and Drafts at your LGS.
