This is Fantasy Games, right? Used to play there several years back. Ah, memories...

Well, nobody likes to lose. The reason/particulars are often irrelevant. I remember back in the days of TPS how masturbatory (non-interactive) it seemed to me, and later similarly with 13-sphere Stax. Orchard + mox = Oath wasn't much better. Winning vintage designs have for a long time been all about making your deck as non-interactive as possible. These were definitely beatable, however, so the question with Dredge should be, "Can any necessary metagame adjustments be made by the players while maintaining a healthy diversity?"

As for games being decided by eking out a gradual advantage through strategically outmaneuvering your opponent: those are the best games of Magic.

Welcome aboard, skipper!

Clearly you need this with Brand (for the final swing).

Nam is the only TS name I recognize in this thread. What of yangtime? What of hazard? of Trogg? of Twaun? of Randall the Red? Where are all the old-school bustas, I ask thee?

I like this deck! Drawing more cards than your opponent is always fun.

I wonder, could you cut one of the Squee's? Since you have Intuitions to find them. Also, the sideboard seems soft against Dredge, are the Surgical's enough?

Yeah, the fact I'm running E.F. main is the only thing keeping me from trying out Tezz 3.0 in my current build.
