Hey nice mill deck. I would defiantly remove a few chancellors if i were you. They might have a good initial effect but it wont be until turn 7 at the least you will be able to play him. So 2 of them should be fine, but four is just asking for dead draws. I love dissipation field. The only problem with it is that you still get damaged form the creature before its returned to there hand. I would sideboard it, because its really only useful against decks that use a lot of enchanting auras. So i find myself getting ride of it from every blue deck i build(but i still start out with 2 in every deck haha).
I like that you have surgical extraction in here, maybe you could add 2 more in place of 2 spires and maybe add either another jace, memory adept, psychrosis crawler, or venser's journal in place of dissipation field.
Haha sorry about the long winded comment, i just got done making 2 mill decks myself.

It might have been where I played it but dissipation field wasn't working enough to even make it sideboard quality. It was intended to fill their hand size for Archivist but it wasn't happening.

Another card I was surprised was mostly a dead draw was the elixirs but those need to be at least sideboard.

I'm mostly running into mid game problems where I was having lack of responses, redirect was the worst offender of that. I keep putting in and taking out these sphinxes as mid game blockers.

I'm pushing it heavier to control at the moment. The chancellors I'm still unsure of, if I mill a key card and extraction it, that can turn the game huge in the first upkeep. Not that it's happened much either, heh.
