Draw 1 card, Draw 1 card, draw etc., and definitely NOT Draw/dredge 7 cards all at once. I thought Grisel was able to be activated instantly in response to removal provided I pay the 7 life immediately.Īnd I thought each draw/dredge was essentially a separate action, ie. My opponent crys foul and calls the judge.Ī> Grisel can't be activated until next turn due to summoning sicknessī> I can only dredge from the initial 10 cards in the graveyard, not from any cards put in there from activating Grisel in the first place!! Then I continue to pull dredger's from the yard I've recently found with the Troll to keep drawing/dredging the full 7 cards from Grisel. I pull the Troll from the 'yard, and drop six cards off the library into the yard. Now, bear in mind I only have one dredger in the yard. My opponent pulls instant removal ( Swords to Plowshares) on Grisel, but I pay 7 life in response, and delcare I'm going to draw/dredge seven cards. I pull Dread Return out of the GY by sacrificing my three creatures, and pop Grisel into play. I also have an Ichorid & two zombie token's in play at the beginning of my first main phase. My turn 3, I have about 10 cards or so in the graveyard, one dredger ( Golgari Grave-Troll), a Dread Return & a Griselbrand. So I've been playing Dredge lately, and I got ruled against by a judge - for doing something I thought was legal.Ĭould you all help me out to understand the rule about what I can legally dredge etc., and what I'm not allowed to do?
