Information

This is a list I have come up with based on a deck I saw on an ETS soon after the release of Memory Dredger this deck has since gotten some new tools that I believe have pushed it into a good ladder/competitive deck. The basic early game is simple stick a deadly unit (preferably Ripknife Assassin), and abuse Xenan Initiation to clear threats from the board and recur those Deadly + Killer units with the name sake Memory Dredger.

Notable inclusions:

Colony Matron - provides you with consistent units to sac to Dizo, Cabal Chairman and Direwood Prowler.

Venom Rider - another form of killer + deadly removal and just an all round solid card.

Dizo, Cabal Chairman - nets you some extra value that Direwood Prowler sometimes cannot.

Auric Interrogator - synergies well with Xenan Obelisk, Dark Return, and Xenan Initiation.

The rest of the deck is just solid removal and other good cards. I strongly recommend trying this deck out. It is insanely fun to play. I welcome any suggestions.

been putting this through its paces a bit, and the one thing that's sticking out to me so far is that there are a LOT of 4's in this deck. been dying a lot with Sewers / Obelisks clogging up my hand. i get the reason for including the sewers in the abstract but i think they're likely too slow. gonna experiment with lowering the curve a bit.

I agree still playing with the numbers a bit I do believe some number of Argenport Sewers is correct, I'm currently trying out a couple of Dark Return. Let me know what changes you made. Like I said completely open to suggestions.

Yeah I added a couple Dark Return and one more Vara's Favor and I think one more power as well.

Man I like the look of this deck, and thanks for sharing it with all of us here! I need to craft three cards to play the deck (two more copies of Ayan and one Banish), and I want to start playing lists with Ayan a lot more. I think Ayan is a safe craft, and I will give the list a try on the ladder.

I updated the list a bit seems a bit more consistent on getting to 4 power on time, and having relevant plays later and earlier in the game. Hope your having fun playing the deck.

I have been having a blast playing this deck, and I love how it feels, and the theme of the deck a lot! I'm happy I gave it a try, and please keep the list updated if you can.

I'm going to grind the ladder with your deck, and I will see well it performs for me over all :)

Thanks, and I will give your updates a try for sure! :)
