The Mind Can Only Expand So Far (Fevered Tutelage)

Standard Mill UR (Izzet)

...Before it flies apart.

This is my first Standard deck, mostly revolving around Fevered Visions + Sphinx's Tutelage and as much card draw as I can cram in there. Each turn I can expect probably 6 or 7 more cards in my hand, if the deck is actually giving me draw spells.

I love mill a lot, and considering Sphinx's Tutelage is still in Standard, well, I figured let's make a competent standard deck!

I'm looking for critiques, suggestions, and whatever lands are good to put in. I've never done much of Standard before, so I'd appreciate as much help as possible.

Here we are again, with a new problem the deck can't handle: Superfriends.

I played against two Superfriends decks last FNM, Naya and Esper, and predictably, I got stomped. Even boarding in Disperse and Negate, things that should, theoretically have been able to deal with Walkers, I still got destroyed.

Problem one: Those were 3 color decks. I missed with the Tutelage almost every single time.

Solution: Add a full set of Startled Awake  Flip.

Problem two: I can't get rid of the walkers at all. I don't have enough damage anywhere to kill a Jace, Unraveler of Secrets, let alone a near-ult Narset Transcendent.

Solution: Unclear as of now. As far as I know, Fevered Visions can have it's damage redirected to walkers, but still, it's just not fast enough.

Speaking of Fevered Visions, holy cow, it's an amazing card! No joke, even without Tutelage, that one enchantment won me a game, and the match, against a Triskaidekaphobia deck. I'm definitely running the full set mainboard from now on. It's just so good.

Anyway, that's all. See you back next week.
