Deck Description

An Aggro/Combo deck for Modern that utilizes the graveyard to repeatedly reanimate creatures into play. Can be very explosive, but can also be susceptible to variance. Sometimes you just don't see any Vengevines, even when you've milled half your deck.

How to Play

First you want to use Faithless Looting, Glimpse the Unthinkable, Hedron Crab, and Lotleth Troll to get your deck into your grave. You can also use Stinkweed Imp and Dredging to help get cards in the bin.

You're trying to get Vengvines, Gravecrawlers, and Bloodghasts into the grave so you can bring a bunch of guys into play at once. Vengevine is the namesake of the deck, and most of the time you want to end up with at least 2 in the grave and coming back. But sometimes you can end up with 3-4 as early as turn 2.

You can use the Fatestitcher unearth to start the Gravecrawler chain. He has a few other tricks too; You can unearth him, and then untap the land you used for the unearth, then use it again for Gravecrawler. So with a Fatestitcher and 2 Gravecrawlers in the grave, you can bring back Vengevines for just 2 mana. He's also awesome at tapping down blockers when you go for the kill.

Deck discussion for Modern DredgeVine

I like the glimpse the unthinkable in this build, How have you found gnaw to the bone in the burn matchup? I have been using Feed the clan recently and find it always gives more more life, no flashback though so there are pros and cons to both :)

I actually really like Gnaw. My build is a lot more focused on getting a ton of cards in the grave as fast as possible, so being able to mill a bunch of creatures and flashback Gnaw is great.

Burn is a tough match though. I'll bring in Spellskites and Gnaw, and the only hope is to either draw hot into an explosive start, or manage to gain 10+ life off Gnaw. Although there have been games where i've gained 20+
