Welcome to the most functional Manaless Dredge deck you will ever see in EDH!

Each card serves its own purpose in which I'll describe a few different categories:

Dredgers:

If you aren't familiar with Legacy Manaless Dredge, you get a card with the Dredge ability into your graveyard by drawing on your first turn then moving to discard due to having 8 cards in hand. Now you will almost never draw another card as you replace your future draws with the Dredge ability and continuing to discard it every turn. Soon, you will fill your graveyard with some useful cards and your future finisher...

Cards That Do Shit In Your Graveyard:

Any card that has some sort of ability that triggers while it's in the graveyard belongs in this category. These are cards like Vengeful Pharaoh , Firemane Angel , Creeping Chill , and so forth.

Cards That Do Shit In Your Hand:

Any card that can be cast from the hand for either a free or alternative cost goes in this category. These are cards like Misdirection , Unmask , Contagion , and so forth.

Free Creatures:

I've only selected free creatures that survive the battlefield (having more than 0 toughness) because of our finisher. Cards like Kobolds or Kher Keep, Memnite , Ornithopter , and so forth are free creatures.

The Finisher And Other Cards For It:

Dread Return is the one card you absolutely NEED to win the game. Yes, you can beat down with creatures like Hogaak, Arisen Necropolis , Narcomoeba , and Ichorid , but that's not too likely. Instead, sacrifice 3 free creatures and/or creatures that come back from the graveyard for free to reanimate either Scholar of the Lost Trove , Goblin Dark-Dwellers , Rot Hulk , and a couple others. Using their ETB effect, cast Eerie Ultimatum or any other reanimation spell that can target two or more permanents. Here you can reanimate a couple different things. Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker with Felidar Guardian , Thassa's Oracle if your deck is empty, or everything using a mass reanimation spell and hope you have enough power to beat down next turn.

The Commander:

I went from Jodah, Archmage Eternal to The Ur-Dragon for the SOLE PURPOSE of making Universal Automaton an additional Memnite in the deck. You don't NEED the Ur-Dragon as your commander but that one little interaction might do something sometime!

Lands:

Yes a manaless deck can play lands! The only ones we play are Maze of Ith and Dakmor Salvage . These don't produce mana but are free ways of keeping yourself alive and preventing your opponents from wanting to attack you.

Anyways that's all for the deck! Give it a +1 if you like it, and I'm always open to suggestions!
