Not a huge deal, but I think you meant revenge not revenge. I could be wrong. Cool deck needs more Walking Ballista.

Thanks. I played the last version of this deck almost exclusively till rotation. Made for a simple transition without some key cards.
It's all the same. Since Aetherflow is a cumulative effect and also stacks you gain the 30 life required pretty fast. Since the deck is non interactive opposing decks have few main deck answers to pull off a win game one. For example a board state with two Aetherflow can gain 20 life with 4 spells in one turn. This is not only possible but I've done it already on multiple occasions. Thing in the Ice and Curious Homunculus are just effective cheap spells which happens to have secondary effects to the same goal. It truly is something to behold in slow plodding decks. Makes Emurakul's trigger look and feel silly. I will say this though. When I revisit the composition of this deck I will most likely use white and then put in Authority of the Consuls to reach the goal of 50 life much quicker. Thanks for the look.
I could see cutting one for another spell, maybe Silumgar's Command. But this sucker is a great asset to the deck. It allows you to self mill and grab a creature already in the graveyard. Hello Den Protector buy back or when you are ready to cast an Ishkanah.
I will say this. I like my chances against Bant Company and GW tokens lol. If they stick this has a legit shot at effing them up.
Yeah, just put it on paper so to speak. I have no real idea of how well it works or if Jar is even needed for it. To be honest I don't think it does. It's kinda taking up four spots when I could play a couple Transgress the mind and Pick the Brain.
I'm not seeing Ayli, Eternal Pilgrim. Seems like reaching 30 life is a real thing for this deck.
You can detect a dead serious comment though right? If so then my comment was on the lighter side of those mentioned, I made a reply based around a Jello jingle for making room. Made zero justification besides my unhealthy love of milling people to death. Just saying.
Jesus folks reread the comment it was about a serious as learning your moral code from the Kardashians. To each their own I guess.
http://www.mtgvault.com/mcflyguy/decks/tutelage-mill/ Made it awhile ago after rotation.
Yeah, Ive updated in real life. Not on here. Need to go through my tags and update them as well
Sure there is. If there is always room for Jello then there has to be room for Mindcrank. lol
Could always splash white for those must need enchantment removal spells plus Boros Charm arguably the best burn spell outside of Lightning Bolt. Of course splashing requires fetch and shock lands which is pricey, buuuuuuuut worth the results.
Sooooooooo Mindcrank? I'm a sucker for mill don't mind me.
No doubt there is room for improvement in the SB. Although for control it usually comes down to accurate SB strategies towards the meta to be successful. I was not wanting to play any Planar Outburst, but the two in the main were a concession to the fact the format requires the board be reset from time to time. I do wish there were some better drawing mechanics in standard. There are times were the deck runs out of gas and never recovers.
I suppose. If those 4 cards are the main factor for smoothing out your mana development then good cause having more spells is always an advantage.
I'm not mad at anything you said. Do remember board chats are impossible to emulate emotion. I try to read everything as though Eugene Levy from Clear Eyes is speaking lol. I'll never stop trolling!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Troll life!!!!!!!!
Drowner of Hope is a great stalling mechanism not to mention it triggers on ETB which would give you value from the graveyard unlike many of the most powerful Eldrazi which triggers upon casting and is a 5/5 with 2 1/1's. In my experience with graveyard strategies you want to have as many ETB effects to maximize the impact of putting things in your yard. I will say only having 20 lands is usually problematic considering you are trying to get to 5 mana in play which is a quarter of all your available lands. Since you are putting things in your yard with Scheming you'll no doubt end up putting lands in the yard which would hinder your mana development. If it hasn't happened yet good, but numbers suggest 20 is not enough. With that being said Shrine will not be good if you stay at 20 lands but otherwise it's a free mana once you get to 7. It's tempting to cut mana for more spells, but you really do have to make sure you hit your mana every turn for five turns to maintain a certain level of consistency. Just my two cents on the matter of mana.
Ah Jace. I remember back when folks were hellbent on saying Nissa was better. The moment I saw Jace there was a minor heart mummer and a shock ensued in disbelief that WotC would print a powerhouse like this after the many years of lowering the power level of cards. It has almost no downside in any deck which likes to draw/filter cards and then reuse said cards. Just an a-maze-za-zing card (name the movie).
As of right now Eldrazi Ramp makes up 4% of all aggro decks. Aggro makes up about 63% of all decks right now. If you go to mtgtop8.com you'll see the deck has a shell and that is green. From that shell it can take any form to tackle the 'meta' making it a top deck in standard when played and prepped for the field. I would say it's win share percentage is better than Jeskai and Abazan, of course I didn't do any calculations to prove this, but on just visuals alone it surpasses both those decks in consistency. If you are insulted by facts and hard questions then go look in the mirror and ask yourself why. I've not called you a single name nor have I insulted your intelligence. Go ahead and show me one thing I've said to incite such a reaction by you or anyone of your followers. If you can't come to grips with a little criticism then quit replying. Otherwise deal with it. I personally don't care for baby gloves when discussing anything so bring it.
