When we discuss budget Legacy, we are not talking about USD$50 or $100-we need to be in the $200 to $300 range. Consequently, the format is very expensive to buy into. The decks in this format play some of the most powerful cards in the game, and many of them are on the Reserved List. Before I get started, I need to clarify a few things. Hello and welcome to this week's Treasure Cruisin'! This time, I decided to tread into Legacy and tech one of my favorite decks in the format: Manaless Dredge. 702.51b A player with fewer cards in his or her library than the number required by a dredge ability can’t put any of them into his or her graveyard this way.This article was originally published on MTG Salvation and has been republished here by the author's request.“Dredge N” means “As long as you have at least N cards in your library, if you would draw a card, you may instead put N cards from the top of your library into your graveyard and return this card from your graveyard to your hand.” 702.51a Dredge is a static ability that functions only while the card with dredge is in a player’s graveyard.Outside Ravnica, Dredge has only been printed in Future Sight's Dakmor Salvage. With this the card can fuel other cards such as Solitary Confinement, Seismic Assault or Retrace cards such as Raven's Crime. However, the most popular Dredge card is Life from the Loam which itself can refuel easily expendable land cards such as Cycling Lands or Fetchlands and put more of those lands into the graveyard using Dredge. With the ability to mill the own deck, this mechanic has become highly popular various tournament formats enabling decks with Ichorid, Bridge from Below and Psychatog. If a player draws a card and a card with Dredge is in the graveyard, the player may choose to instead put the top X cards from his or her library into his or her graveyard and return the card with Dredge to his or her hand.

It is the ability of the Golgari Guild in Ravnica: City of Guilds and usually worded as 'Dredge '.
