Johny's Mill Tokens

by Dankirk on 26 June 2013

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (51 cards)

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

The theme is zombie token mill.
Sideboard is the maybe board.

Parallel Lives seemed better than Endless Ranks of the Dead. While it might give me continous zombies regardless what happens to other the token makers, Parallel Lives gives the tokens earlier, which might be a valuable combat trick. Combination of both would be deadly, but not often too slow to be practical.

Sarcomancy was chosen for the 1cmc zombie for being a token and as such having synergy with Parallel Lives, making them viable even when drawn in late game.

Darkwater Catacombs proved great in filtering mana for Lich Lord's abilities.

Noxious Ghoul is great with the tokens and also makes Patriarch's Bidding a game finisher.

How to Play

Buy time with zombie tokens or use them for Dread Return to get something better later.

Skirk Ridge Exhumer and Cryptbreaker can discard key zombies to be returned with Dread Return. Many of the supporting cards also work from graveyard or have a madness (Circular Logic), so keeping a discarder/token maker around is always useful. You should always delay making the tokens until the last possible moment, which also helps playing Circular Logic if need be.

Quasiduplicate is a wild card. Noxious Ghoul, Grave Titan and Undead Alchemist are the prime targets. This is absurdly powerful instant when Parallel Lives is in play.

Deck discussion for Johny's Mill Tokens

Wall of blood may serve as a boost to this theme.
Use mind funeral instead of mind grind. Funeral mills 13-14 cards on average against 22 land opponents.

Mind Grind is here for multiplayer purposes. I guess I'll put the Funeral in and move Grind to the sideboard. The wall would be great if this was shifted a bit from the zombie token theme.

Thanks for input.

Yo there, just poping in to tell you that I've copied two mill-decks that've won nice places in modern, meaning mill is now doable!
