Deck Description

Cipher on an unblockable creature is fun. Giving the same creature double strike is even more fun.

How to Play

The idea is to get a Cipher card encoded onto an unblockable creature, preferably Paranoid Delusions on Invisible Stalker. Fireshrieker just doubles the speed of the mill.

Dimir Infiltrator is both a creature that is unblockable and a tutor for one of the two Cipher cards.

With 25 Instants and Sorceries, how could I not include Delver of Secrets?

While Paranoid Delusions is the key Cipher card, Hands of binding can be used to lock down troublesome creatures indefinitely.

Sleight of Hand and Serum Visions help find an unblockable creature and / or a Cipher spell.

Mizzium Skin helps protect Dimir Infiltrator or Delver of Secrets from targeted removal.

Deck discussion for Cipher of the Mindless

Why not throw in a Trepanation Blade? If you are looking to do some Mill, it would both add to that, and your damage.

If I where to include another mill effect, I'd prefer Sword of Body and Mind as it'll double mill with the double strike from Fireshrieker. If I did include the Sword; I'd probably remove Hands of Binding for it.

Also just had an idea. Picture this: Hands of Binding encoded onto Frost Titan >:)

That would be a nice control combo. Hidden strings would also be really mean, or really useful for untapping your lands etc.
