I want this deck to be able to mill consistent with any hand. I do not run any tutors because I want to keep the power level a bit lower and keep my games fun and diverse. Still, I added a collection of the combo's as they can be very useful. Some are infinite, some are almost infinite depending on how much creatures you hit with mill and some are just decent combo's that not instantly win you the game but can get you pretty close!

• Phenax, God of Deception + Undead Alchemist + Thousand-Year Elixir = usually infinite if the decks are creature heavy enough.
• Phenax, God of Deception + Undead Alchemist + Intruder Alarm = usually infinite if the decks are creature heavy enough.
• Phenax, God of Deception + Intruder Alarm + 1 or more X/X creatures. Makes your opponents think twice about playing a creature. Easily wins you the game in 2 turns or less.
• Phenax, God of Deception + Pemmin's Aura + Tree of Perdition mill 40 for each blue mana.
• Phenax, God of Deception + Pemmin's Aura + The Haunt of Hightower grows exponentially, with 5 blue mana and no other mill effects it mills for 3-6-12-24-48 for a total of 93 cards milled. Easily milling one person out of the game.

• Fraying Sanity + Traumatize = mill someones entire library.

• Mindcrank + Duskmantle Guildmage + mill trigger = infinite.
• Mindcrank + Syr Konrad, the Grim + a couple mill triggers = infinite.
