Modern Dredge Finally Has a Real 1-Drop! Moonshadow First Test | Full League

Modern Dredge finally has a real 1-drop — and its name is Moonshadow!
In this video, I test the brand-new card from Lorwyn Eclipsed in a full Modern League, exploring its potential as the first true 1-mana threat the archetype has ever had.
Dredge has always relied on powerful graveyard synergies, but it never had a natural 1-drop creature that could grow alongside the deck’s core game plan. Moonshadow changes that, growing passively as permanents hit the graveyard, exactly what Dredge wants to do every game.
This league features real gameplay situations and honest analysis, as it is the first test with a brand-new card. Alongside Moonshadow, I’m also running Psychic Frog, Life from the Loam, and Cephalid Coliseum, pushing the deck into a slightly different direction and exploring new lines of play.
The goal here is simple: find out if Moonshadow truly deserves a slot in Modern Dredge, or if it’s just early hype.
Please let me know in the comments what you think of this first version of the list and how you would improve it.
