Deck Description

So how does it feel like to be Maniacal, Insane, Not-a-care-in-the-world-of-personal-safety?

Play test this deck with its Opening Draw to see how things go for you!

Madness be with you, ALWAYS!

(Edits)

Mirror-mad Phantasm as suggested by Lanceofzolong; it's a good card for a suicide deck! But I have one worry, would it mill cards that I need?

How to Play

HOW DO YOU WIN?

Normal people defeat their opponents. But as the wise saying goes 'The toughest enemy is yourself'

So what's the winning condition? DEFEAT YOURSELF! (Opponents may help)

ARTIFACT

Codex Shredder - I love the name, it's a 1 drop artifact that allows {T}: Mill one . You can also sacrifice it with 5 mana to bring back a card from your graveyard to your hand.


CREATURES!!!!

Deranged Assistant - 2 drop, tap it, mill yourself for one, add 1 colourless mana!

Drift of Phantasm - Worried about evasive birdies pecking on your head? Yeah, so do I; 3 drop for this flying crew. Able to Transmute!

EXPLANATION ON TRANSMUTE:
Discard this card after paying its transmute cost, search your library for another card that shares the same Mana Cost, put it in your hand.

Gloom Surgeon - 2 drop for an awesome blocker! 2/1 and doesn't take combat damage, actually he does, but you have to mill a card per damage he took. Good for the star of the deck!!

Kathari Remnant - 4 drop for flying and {B}: Regen, good defender and can take as many hits as possible, a 4 drop that Cascades!

Laboratory Maniac - All spotlights on the madman please! Yeah! Here is the man who will lead your to your victory and demise simultaneously! 3 drop, don't care about his power and toughness. All you have to know is that the moment your library is emptied and an attempt to draw is carried out, you win the game!

Leveler - The oddball from Mirrodin heard my plea, so it rolled to the deck and gave Laboratory Maniac a high five. With an attempt to draw, you win.


ENCHANTMENT

Colfenor's Plan - Weird ASS Card~~!! 4 drop, exile the top 7 cards of your library, you can look at them without revealing them to other players, you may play them as if they are in your hand. YOU HAVE NO MORE DRAW STEP! And You're restricted to play one spell per turn.

TIPS TO PLAY Colfenor's Plan; MAKE SURE you have a way to draw cards WITHOUT your draw step, or in any way, run your library dry. Cascade is used to play this effect out. Same goes for Spoils of the Vault; Transmute allows you to search cards with your library after transacting the required mana. Amass the Components, an underrated card that can save your ass!
Key note: Just make sure you don't get JAMMED by this tricky enchantment.


INSTANTS!!!

Forbidden Alchemy - Sure lives up to its name, has flashback too. 3 drop, look at the top 4 cards of your library (don't need to reveal them), put one in hand and the rest into graveyard. (Flashback = 7 drop)

Perplex - Has transmute, 3 drop counter spell UNLESS opponent discards their hand.

Spoils of the Vault - Name a card, reveal your deck till you reveal that card. Put that named card into your hand if you made it there! Then all the revealed cards earlier on are exiled.... Oh, you lose 1 life for each wasted card.


SORCERY!!

Amass the Components - Combo with Spoils of the Vault if you are confident of pulling it off! Just draw your cards, return ONE card to the bottom, then name it with Spoils of the Vault, You'll empty your deck that deck. BUT! Make sure you can take all the life lost.

Deny Reality - Mostly for the Almighty cascade, it can return Colfenor's Plan so that you don't have to suffer the penalties.

Diabolic Tutor - When you want to get a specific card and not have it Mill-ed by your crazy play style.

Dimir Machinations - Can be used to screw your opponent's next few turns or simply alter your next few draws. 3 drop with Transmute.
