Deck discussion for Ally Mill(help)

1. Take out Bala Ged Thief and out in Agadeem Occulist. It comes out a turn earlier and whatever your opponent mills you can take.

2. Take out either Hada Freeblade or Ondu Cleric for Kazanduu Blademaster. If it were really up to me, i would take out white altogether, you only have eight white cards. If you do take out white, then put in either Lich lord of Unx, Traumatize, Keening Stone, Cancel/Negate, Clone/Rite of Replication (preferably rite of replication) or Archive Trap.

3. If you are going to have Hedron Crab then try to put some Fetch lands in your deck. If you can't afford fetch lands then Teramorphic Expanse will do.

4. Personally if you like to draw, take out seagate loremaster for Hive Mine or See Beyond. If you want him to be an ally, go for Umara Raptor which has flying.

I recently made a deck similar to this. This deck ONLY works well with two colours. I would take out white, personally, but you can take out black. You want 4 Excavators, 4 Shapeshifters, and 6 total of Clone and RIte of Replication. Sea Gate Loremaster is really good, and mind funeral is excellent, but I would also put in some control and ways to protect the Excavators. I use whispersilk, spreading seas/convincing mirage, cancel, negate and dispel. Jace Beleren and Liliana Vess are also good options in a deck like this, and I like running Time Warp, too.
Hedron Crab = Bad

Don't listen to this dudes last comment. Trust me when i say that Hedron Crabs = One of the best cards in a standard mill deck. Sea gate lore is ok but i would hat to have him bolted after spending five mana on him; that is why i prefer Umara Raptor, because after a turn or two it can take a hit.

Personally I would take out the crab n a deck like this. I don't think its a bad card but it doesnt fit in a ally mill deck. You'll have way better results if you replace the 4 crabs with 4 Rit of replications. I have an ally mill deck and trust me it works. You'll be amazed at what a RoR can do in an ally deck.
