Brewer's Paradise - Dredge Swarm in Modern [Edward Eng - Battlemage, Level 42]
What's up, what's up, what's up! Dredge in Modern is what's up. It looks like quite a few people have been brewing up some sweet Dredge decks recently. But the one that's caught my attention the most is Travis Woo's build.
It's been quite a work in progress on his end, and it's been pretty sweet to see him go through the iterations. I think there's probably still a lot of room for improvement, but it definitely seems like the deck has a lot of potential.
Here's the latest version I've seen so far.
Modern
Dredge Swarm - Travis Woo
|
Creatures (36) Non-Creature Spells (4)
|
Lands (20) 1 Blood Crypt Sideboard (15) |
There are a lot of lines of play, so you definitely need a good amount a practice with it. The manabase is also very intricate and probably still needs some tweaking. In his latest video, he even swapped out the Mountain for a second Blood Crypt and the Forest for a second Overgrown Tomb.
Anyhow, the deck looks sweet and I'll probably give the deck a try. If Dredge is your thang, give the deck a whirl. And definitely hit me up on social media with feedback if you try it out. I'd love to see what improvements we can make to the deck.
Peace, love, and have fun…
Eddie
