JPODS0717 read comments #317- #318

Oh sorry. I didnt want to read 320 comments lol but he hasn't changed it so i assumed it wasmt said

Yeah, that makes sense. I think your presentation came off a little too "WTTFFFFF?? Deltas over Mistys DUH!" It compelled me to reply lol.

'Sall good

@JPODS0717 - Yeah I haven't had much free time lately. There are a few changes I have been meaning to make.

I like it +1

Haha, thanx

With Hedron Crab in the list, shouldn't you be running extra fetches? It makes the landfall so much better

@Paradoxical - There is. Watery Grave & Polluted Delta are the best ones and I run 4's of each. The rest of the lands serve good purpose elsewhere. Only one I would swap is 1 Shelldock Isle . I'd like to keep at least one...suppose Their could be some slight arranging, but not much. I like where my lands are at.

Any specific suggests along those lines? I'm always glad to hear suggestions

considering you are running Hedron Crab , and relying on land drops to do alot of milling early, would it not be an idea to include more fetchlands (for 2 procs a turn) and maybe Altar of the Brood ?

@Pyroshade - What would you swap out for more fetches, cuz everything is serving a purpose. and it's an interesting idea of AotB... I'll have to think about that.

This deck seems very strong. You get a +1 from me. I took a different approach for my mill. Take a look and see if you can give me any suggestions. Not The Mill Thanks

HeroFallenVillain what do you do when you face someone with Leyline of Sanctity? I'm trying to finish up my mill deck, and that's probably the only card that really screws up mill aside from a counter heavy deck.

I'd suggest splashing green for enchantment/artifact hate out of the board.

Have you considered Relic of Progenitus in case you mill an Emrakul, the Aeons Torn or they have some other way to shuffle their GY into their library?

HeroFallenVillain Because I haven't seen anyone offer, I would be more than willing to test decks with you (Using Untap I assume). I would love to help test for a mill deck, mill is a baby to me. If you want to add me on either here or Untap, my name on Untap is the same.

you could also run [mirko vosk, mind drinker]

While horrible against agro, Sadistic Sacrament is great for dismantling combo or control.

I'm running a deck similar to this and I'd say that 2-3x Leyline of the Void is an absolute necessity sideboard. If you run up against Dredgevine, or an Emrakul, or any kind of shuffle back triggers you need an answer. Surgical Extraction is great, but more of an SB combo hate card than a main deck answer, IMO.

I'm running a similar deck, but 2 Snaps and 3 Hedron Crab to make room for 3x Spell Snare and 4x Mana Leak.

I don't see the need for Darkslick Shores in your deck. Late game it's far too slow, and your only first turn plays are Thought Scour and Hedron Crab so I'd say drop the Darkslick for Drowned Catacomb. If anything, you're going to want to try scouring them EOT and then pay 2 life to extract something important if you get lucky. All that is to say, you're better off just playing an island first turn or paying the 2 for a grave if you really want the black.

Have you had much success with Shelldock Isle What are you tucking under there that is worth the tapped land + paying "for free" when you could just cast a Glimpse the Unthinkable or Breaking for the same cost?

As another mill player i have a question how are your dealing with Leyline of Sanctity with a blue black mill. I'm looking for a sideboard card for this.

@Smeltz45 Echoing Truth or Retraction Helix. I prefer Truth only because it can hit multiple instances of big threats on the board (allowing you to Surgical Extraction them from hand as well. Helix is a good option because you can, T2, spend to Helix Leyline then drop your second crab. Regardless, you're eating up some mana without forcing them to mill the first few turns (which can be very important to our strategy.

Thanks, I appreciate the help. Its so weird that both colors don't have a destroy effect.

Kiora's Dismissal may be a better choice than Retraction Helix imho, since you don't need to have a creature in play, although it hits only enchants which is a downside.

Opinions on Recoil While it costs a few more mana they won't pick Leyline of Sanctity this could force them to get rid of something they need for a good start and remove Leyline of Sanctity
