dredging your own connive?
Asked by koylucumert 1 year ago
lets say I have a Golgari Grave-Troll on the battlefield with 3 black creatures. I cast Lethal Scheme by convoking with my 4 creatures, and targetting the troll. when it dies, can I replace its own connive with it dredging itself?

Yes that works. The detailed rules for the Connive ability don't specifically require the creature to still be on the battlefield in order to work and also include a specific rule to address what to do if the creature goes missing:
701.47c If a permanent changes zones before an effect causes it to connive, its last known information is used to determine which object connived and who controlled it.
