Faithless Brewing MTG: Modern and Pioneer for the Spike Rogue

The Complete History of Waste Not (ft. Dylan_MTG)

Season 10, Episode 30: Q&A with Dylan Kruse
 
Some cards you spend a lifetime chasing. Deck after deck, brew after brew, always searching for that new tech or perfect configuration to finally break through. These are the cards that get into your blood.
Dylan Kruse knows a thing or two about Waste Not. He has brewed literally hundreds of Waste Not decks over the course of six years. But his brewing range is much wider, including spice like the Calibrated Blast list that is currently rocking the Modern leagues. We sit down with Dylan to learn about his history with discard combo, tips and tricks for piloting Calibrated Blast, and listener questions from the Brewer's Mailbag.
