    How it works

    Before you start

    You have a land card in hand. You are able to play a land this turn. There are land cards in your library.

    Steps

    Play a land. When the land enters, Rydia triggers, causing you to discard Golgari Grave-Troll, and then mill six cards and return Golgari Grave-Troll from your graveyard to your hand due to its dredge ability. If you milled one or more lands this way, Hedge Shredder triggers, putting them from your graveyard onto the battlefield tapped. When the land(s) enter, Rydia triggers that many times. Resolve the first trigger, causing you to discard Golgari Grave-Troll, and then mill six cards and return Golgari Grave-Troll from your graveyard to your hand due to its dredge ability. Repeat from step 3 as able.
