Soon after the ban announcement, I started to play against Dredge decks that looked exactly like the old versions that had Faithless Looting, but instead of the now-banned card they were running Insolent Neonate and more Forgotten Caves. You need to find an untapped blue source for turn one you need to make sure that any two-land hand can cast Life from the Loam you want all your lands to produce red mana There are too many notes to hit for a fragile combo deck that doesn't draw any cards from the top of the library except for the opening hand. While Tome Scour offers a powerful effect for Dredge strategies, I believe it is too much to ask from the deck's already greedy mana base. On a nice side effect, Tome Scour itself also triggers any copies of Narcomoeba and Creeping Chill it hits. If there happens to be a card featuring the keyword dredge among them, you can skip your draw step from here on and dredge cards for the rest of the game to fill the graveyard. While this doesn't let you discard cards from your hand, it essentially skips the first and complicated part of Dredge's game plan and directly puts five cards from the top of your library into your graveyard. A first list tried to incorporate blue into its mana base to cast Tome Scour on the first turn of the game, targeting the Dredge player itself.
