Amazing Mill $5 Budget Modern

by JonahMargolis on 08 January 2014

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (36 cards)

Creatures (4)


Sorceries (4)


Artifacts (8)

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

Lightning fast, you have an unbelievably high number of draws and all low mana cards.

Add in Brain Freeze if you dont worry about it being modern. Depending on your budget you can add back in in Isochron Scepter, twincast & Jace's Phantasm and it will still be a $20 deck.

How to Play

Wight of Precinct Six become really powerful by turn 2 or 3. Hover Barrier Helps you defend and stall a turn or two for the win.

Jace's Erasure combos amazingly well with all your draw cards:
Jace's Archivist
Thought Scour
Pilfered Plans
Breaking // Entering
Mind Sculpt

A Duskmantle Guildmage means you only need to force your opponent to discard 20 cards instead of 60.

If you dont need it to be modern, you can swap in Brain Freeze, it does amazing with its storm ability.

I have a speed-mill deck in modern as well (not budget, though), and I have four Brain Freezes behind the sideboard for any time someone wants to play without modern restrictions. =P
I love that card so much.

yeah, It is really amazing in a deck with a lot of draws and low mana cards like this.

For a little extra money throw in Isochron Scepter and Twin cast and laugh.

Also, just so you know, Dream Salvage only works with discarding from the hand (i.e. Jace's Archivist effect), but not with milling from the deck. You should try instead using Visions of Beyond; it works way better in a deck like this.

Breaking // Entering works well, although I will only be using the Breaking half.
