I might steal your idea on the Basalt Monolith - that's a great infinite mill. If I were you, I'd cut down your average CMC a little. Muldrotha combo is incredibly potent, so the faster you can make your deck the better. There's more than enough room to combo off without eldrazi, primordials, or praetors.

If you're interested, here's my list: Milldrotha, the Gravetide. The description isn't updated, but the main combos are Lazav, the Multifarious + Mirror-Mad Phantasm or Mirror-Mad Phantasm + Necrotic Ooze into Laboratory Maniac ; or Grand Architect + Pili-Pala / Deadeye Navigator + Peregrine Drake for infinite mana into either Torment of Hailfire or repeatedly saccing Muldrotha to Altar of Dementia .

I just want to be clear on this before I test it in my midrange deck. Mirror-Mad Phantasm + Necrotic Ooze works just like 0% basic hermit druid in that it dumps everything in the graveyard off one activation?

Also, have you considered Eternal Scourge + Food Chain ? I know your more graveyard based than me, but I feel the combo is (almost) strictly better than Basalt Monolith + Mesmeric Orb .

Thank you so much for sharing your deck and knowledge! I have been looking into making my first EDH deck and love the idea of self-mill, so I am really glad I found this. I apologize for my long, and probably dumb, comment.

Would you mind explaining how Mirror-Mad Phantasm + Necrotic Ooze works and why it is effective? I would have thought that ability would fizzle once Ooze left the battlefield. Regardless, it seems to me less effective than the Basalt Monolith + Mesmeric Orb combo, due to having to cast 1U mana for the ability each time and up to luck on how much it mills/where it ends up in the deck.

How does it typically play out with building up your mana?/ Do you play more land from your graveyard or from your library? Maybe Splendid Reclamation would work well?

Do you have any problems with draw power?
