Another cheap milling card is Altar of the Brood. I originally had only one in my deck, and my friends found it very annoying. Imagine it with 4. Also, Jace, Memory Adept is a great mill card. When I first saw it, I couldn't believe that the mill 10 was it 0 ability. Within 5 turns, your opponent is dead (if they have a 60 card deck) with Jace. These two cards would be great editions to a mill deck.

Hi, I'm relatively new to magic, but maybe adding some Black aspects to the deck could help, possibly Consuming Aberration as an alternate win condition to milling, or just a huge blocker to stop your opponents big creatures

Hey fellow mono-blue miller!! I don't know if you are still working on this deck, but maybe mine can give you some ideas!

Mind Funeraland Glimpse the Unthinkable if you're going to splash black also give Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver a look+1 for mill. You can also check out my Dimir Mill mind shredder

I'd suggest splashing black for Glimpse the Unthinkable an obvious one, Mind Funeral is very underrated. Have seen it mill 14 or more several times.

I suggest adding Fraying Sanity to double the mill effect. Also, a copy or two of Fleet Swallower for more draw. It may be in high cost, but it is worth it.

i would replace Ghost Quarter with Field of Ruin. with ghost quarter they can pass on searching their deck for a land... with field of ruin they cant. so... you destroy one of their land, force them to search their deck Archive Trap AND you also get to go get you a new land thus triggering your Hedron Crab

This is kinda what I go with in mine currently. It's an all spell cast no creature....but in my physical experience...it runs way faster without creatures and I'm constantly milling my opponent one way or another

I would also drop the walkers. They're only going to slow down your milling process unless you run jace,memory adept and you have some way to keep him on the battlefield.

I know this isn’t mill, but it is reliant on having a fat graveyard of instants and sorceries and gives you an alternate win condition. I did scan the comments and learned a lot about focusing on mill and how to multiply the effects nicely, but I always like a back up plan. Rise from the Tides. Just one of course, and maybe just in the sideboard. I’m working on a mono blue control deck of my own right now that has the lightest mill using Drowned Secrets to make all blue spells mill spells. I’m only running two because I want to focus on control more than mill. Also from Guilds of Ravnica, it’s a little heavy yeah but works as a counter and helps you not deck out as well: Devious Cover-Up. My deck is also hardcore budget. It’s only 35 bucks cause I’m super poor. Mission Briefing is another card I think will be neat for blue for a long time. I’m not that good at magic or anything though, just some thoughts. And a new favorite of mine, Curious Homunculus Flip. I don’t have him but Baral, Chief of Compliance does the same thing with card draw potential. He’s probably the better card considering he’s a five dollar card and the Homonculus is 24 cents.
