Rites of Spring is used to get one of each color and to discard your dredgers, that way Hermit Druid will keep dredging even if it hits a guildgate or other nonbasic =p

So we play Rites of Spring , discard hopefully 3-4 dredgers, search library for each basic land, then play Hermit Druid and dredge for large amounts of cards?

pretty much yea, then flashback Lingering Souls sac those with Dread Return or Unburial rights, return w/e beater is best at that moment and boom
December 17, 2013 12:10 a.m.
That turns this into a Combo deck :D That's a really unique one to pull off too haha
December 17, 2013 12:11 a.m.
it's not as fast as legacy dredge but still good, how you like it so far?
December 17, 2013 12:16 a.m.
This deck has come a looooooong way.. all thanks to you, my friend. I really wish there was some proper way I could thank you for this.
December 17, 2013 12:16 a.m.
It's good, I always wanted to make a dredge deck but didn't think you could do 1 within budget so i had fun =p. What 3 cards would you cut in my deck bc im still having trouble on that
December 17, 2013 12:21 a.m.
I feel like Tidehollow Sculler is a sideboard card. I would def take that out as it's not super important in fueling the rest of the deck. But then you're stuck with only 16 creatures..

At worst i use him to see their hand so i can make plays accordingly, at best i get to remove a good card and have a creature that forces them to use removal on him if they want their card back. Might honestly just leave it as it is and say fk the 60 card rule lol
December 17, 2013 12:38 a.m.
Do you have anything on my wants that you can trade btw
December 17, 2013 12:39 a.m.
I definitely have several Manaweft Sliver s and other standard sliver cards. I also have a legacy sliver deck that I do not use at all anymore and I'd be more than willing to get that off my hands.
December 17, 2013 12:45 a.m.
Yes! I have several standard slivers. Although looking at Riftstone Portal and realized it world hinder me when its in my graveyard. my blue and black mana sources..
December 17, 2013 10:20 a.m.
Also..would would happen if I added 1 Golgari Lich Lord I feel like his activated ability would be super good in any dredge deck.. And I can bring him back from the grave pretty easily as long as I have a Swamp and Forest, which Roots of Spring would help me get. I'm think of replacing the Riftstone Portal with Dakmor Salvage
December 17, 2013 10:31 a.m.
uh, im not sure if Riftstone Portal takes away the ability to tap for blue or black mana, or if it just adds. You gotta look it up. I guess but Dakmor Salvage might end up being better, try it out and see what works better
December 17, 2013 12:55 p.m.
Also, is there anything in my binder you would trade your sliver for?
December 17, 2013 12:55 p.m.
I just asked on the forums and people said it just adds that ability to lands I control, so I'm definitely keeping those as they are right now. And for trades, I'm looking at Drowned Catacomb , Underground River , Dark Ritual , and Somberwald Sage as potential options

hmm, is your Garruk Relentless Flip up for trade too, because that might be a better replacement than Awakening Zone since i don't need to sac the tokens at will anymore.

Slimmed it down to 70. Although not sure why we toned down the basic lands? Wouldn't that hinder our Rites of Spring ? I feel like if we kept these changes we could take the Rites of Spring out entirely.
