1/2/2024 0 Comments Manaless vintage dredgeAfter putting out The Rack and casting a balance you are almost assured victory. You can use either a 5c mana base or wrath of god. There are two ways to build manaless ichorid, control and combo. When you sacrifice creatures to play these spells you will get 2/2 zombie tokens from bridge from below that you can later use to take your opponent from 20 to 0 in a flash. The goal of this deck is to put your library into your graveyard through the use of the drdge mechanic printed in Ravnica block and Bazaar of Baghdad, and then use your graveyard as a hand, feeding spells like cabal therapy and dread return with free creatures such as narcomoeba and ichorid. This is one of the reasons ichorid is so reviled among vintage players. The upside is that the relevancy of hate pices for this build is almost polar opposite of the manaless build so your opponents are forced to take a gamble before they even show up to the tourney on whether they A) want to sideboard for ichorid at all and b) which type of ichorid they want to side for. This also has a much worse matchup against faster combo decks like flash hulk. The downside to this deck over manaless is that it increases it's speed at the expense of it's disruption, so some of the relevant hate becomes even more deadly games 2-3. The deck has a high chance to pull off a turn two combo of 7+ 3/3s swinging at the dome, and has been known to do it turn 1. It's first appearance was at the ICBM Open #1 on 2-2-08 wher Tommy Kolowith piloted it to 1st place and refused to post the list online. The natural evolution of the combo version of manaless ichorid, this deck seeks to increase the already ridiculous power of dredge with blue spells like careful study and breakthrough.
