Dimir Cipher Deck (thoughts?)

Main Deck (80 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

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.


How to Play

I have not played this deck and would love feed back.

Deck discussion for Dimir Cipher Deck (thoughts?)

Needs some work...

What purposes do Prophetic Prism and Realmwright serve? Mindeye Drake, Coerced Confession, Grisly Spectacle and Way of the Thief are all too high a cost for their usefulness. Are you trying to mill your opponent? Then you may want more than 1 Paranoid Delusion and some other sources of mill below 4 cost Balustrade Spies or 5 cost Aberrations. More Dimir Charm, Mind Grind, Mild Sculpt etc. Or if just awesomely ciphering your opponent to death (somehow) is the goal, strip most of your sideboard, as there ain't much focus there, and add some Voidwalk or more Last Thoughts or have a set of Shadowslice at least. What are you planning on actually dealing damage with? Just Deathcult Rogues?

hmm in this set there are many unblockable look for those they are more useful in cipher aberation is good but at the rate i see this deck going my unblockable cipher would rip it to pieces mill should be you back strategy to push through not your main one the other decks ive faced beat down mill decks before they get the chance to take off try not going over a converted mana cost of 5 for anything also put psycic strike in mainboard they are quit useful

Second on the Psychic Strike. Keep in mind that if your Duskmantle Seer gets running and your deck is more expensive overall than your opponent's, you will probably die very quickly.

You would be the very first person I've seen running without invisi stalkers in their cipher deck...... I mean if it works better for you then kudos. Just seems like the obvious card here.

Also, I don't see Coerced Confusion being better than Curiosity. Sure, you avoid Destroy enchantment effects. But for 1 mana drop vs 4 you get similar effects. Granted I'm not going to get 2 cards in that first round, but I'm not risking as much from a counterspell either.
