Deck discussion for Standard blue mill

I'd take a look at chronic flooding, it enchants target land with tap, mill three. It really mess with your opponent psychologically, they get worried about milling. Otherwise, you are doing it right.

I had them in for a while, but they would just drop more mana and play around that mana. I might put them back in though,

I would suggest a few other options regarding strait mill cards. I would take out both of those plainswalkers and replace them with Jace Beleren. Also some powerful mill cards that would go nicely with some of your other cards are Jace's Erasure, Archive Trap, Grindclock and Traumatize.

I'm not sure if you would really need some of those cards to send creatures back to the owners library unless you could team it with a low cost mill card like dream twist. other than that I think this is a great start to a blue mill.

you can look on my page for what I have in my mill deck to get an idea what I was talking about.

and look into hedron crab!!

Im keepin it standard so I can't use a lot of those cards.

I usually hold those cards till I have the low drop mill spells/curse of the bloody tome to get rid of specific creatures. Thanks for the input though, always nice for another opinion.

I just think he is wasting some space in his deck with cards like codex shredder and the plainswalkers

I would say Jace Beleren, but I don't know what cards can be played in standard or not

Consuming Aberration is nice, really strong if opponent is already milled which he should be by the time you cast him. Also does a little milling himself. A Duskmantle Guildmage would play nicely with some of your cards; especially mind sculpt. There are a couple more fun Gatecrash cards that do well with milling decks.

Look into adding some black into the deck, Gatecrash came with some good stuff for Mill decks (Consuming Aberration & Mind Grind are really overpowered in my opinion for Mill decks) and if you don't mind spending some money on the Deck, i would suggest at least 2x Snapcaster Mage ( Wouldn't hurt to use Mind Sculpt or anything else again )... And even though some people would disagree with me but i would put more Dream Twist... And for Standard i think your good with thous 2 Planeswalkers, its that or play with 2x Jace, Memory Adept.

I'll take it all into consideration. I might do that. Just not sure what or how I would go about changing it. Thanks though.

drop 2x codex shredder, 1 griptide, 1x dream twist 1 grasp of phantoms .drop 2x stern mentor, drop Ludevic's Test Subject (i cant imagine you getting this flipped and it surviving all that often), 3x think twice 2x cyclonic rift 1x psychic spiral , 2x sage's row denizen. maybe possibly adding Jace, architect of thought, or increasing confusion.
