Squadron Hawk worth it in Dredge?

Deck Help forum

Posted on Sept. 19, 2013, 8:52 p.m. by Jay

So I'm making an Orzhov Dredge deck, and right now I have 4x Squadron Hawk s in there. The main reason is that if I drop it on turn 2 I can fill my hand over, allowing me to discard someone with dredge. The issue is, that's about all it's good for. I'm here to ask you guys if you think I should drop it.

Any other thoughts on the deck would be rad, too. Here's the list: Orzhov... Dredge?

Thanks, everyone!

There are other, in-colour ways to cause discard. Deepcavern Imp , for example, can let you discard and provides a decent aerial beater. Cunning Lethemancer , Fauna Shaman , Llanowar Mentor and more might take your fancy.

I like the suggestions, but I really want something for less than 3 cmc.

Also, I only have G in there for Deathrite Shaman , so the other two aren't really valid. I know it would be better Junk, it's just part of the schtick I'm going for haha.

Whaddya think about replacing it with Dark Confidant ? Same CMC, different role, but might be what I need. Just cross fingers for no Iona, Shield of Emeria .
