my mill deck

Main Deck (64 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

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.

Also Haunting Echoes will seal a game if played soon after Traumatize! Been playing mill for a while and thewuest has listed what you need for the most part.Although, Twincasting a Glimpse is really fun!

thewuest has already mentioned this, but you REALLY need 4x mind funerals. I can't tell you how great it is to pay three mana and watch half your opponents deck fall into the graveyard.... Also, Twincast with ANY mill spell is absolutely FANTASTIC. I've took game off of Mind Funeral + Twincast I can't tell you how many times. Also, though this is a very slow card, if you think on ways to utilize it quickly it could be interesting: Cast through Time. As noted it's a really high cost, but maybe something can come of it. ~ Enjoy.

You might like to try Millies, the creatures you are currently running don't have much of an impact in terms of mill, you don't have anything to stop an aggro deck running over you (and your Jace Bell).

Look up decks with Halimar Excavator in them for examples of Millies. Fun mill deck, can go off pretty fast for a mill deck, and unlike most mill decks you will have a field of creatures to help stave off the aggro. The best Millies decks I've seen are Blue/White.

If you're going to stay blue/black, you really need some creature control and fatter creatures. You'll want to use spells to mill them and creatures to keep you alive, the only creature you're running right now that is fine is the Hedron crab because you get the mill 3 effect from playing a land. That's not too terrible and it leaves your mana open for spells.

I wish I had a mill deck uploaded but I stopped playing mill when the Eldrazi Titans came out, boy oh boy those just make me mad.

BTW, Bojuka Bog all day erry day.

Allies that are built for milling.

The main card is Halimar Excavator, and the Jwari Shapeshifter is used to copy it. Now that it's not type 2 you could run Dance of the Many, Clone, Rite of Replication and other clone spells too. It's a really fun mill deck and if you get a bad draw at least you have some good blockers. Just look for decks with Halimar Excavator in them to see some examples.

This just in, I made a mill deck for a challenge. It's not a typical mill deck but maybe it will give you some inspiration.

You might also consider a keening stone or two. They're a bit expensive, but great in late game, when you've already milled your opponent down a bit.

Something I liked to do when I had a standard mill was run Hedron Crab. Mainly because I thought it was hilarious to see my opponents face when I played a land. And also the have to waste a burn spell to kill it.
