Check out Nekusar Group Slugs!! I've currently got the deck tuned to kill everyone pretty much as fast as humanly possible. There are a bunch of differences. I don't think Nekusar is quite tuned to be a mill deck, so cards like Traumatize and Mind Grind feel a little out of place to me, here. I played Minds Aglow for quite some time and found it completely underperforming. It'll do that here too, especially since people are taking damage for drawing cards. I'm none too sure I like Hive Mind here. Casting Traumatize with it out seems like a really bad idea. Also! Tutors recommended. Diabolic Tutor , Diabolic Revelation , Demonic Tutor , Increasing Ambition , and Rune-Scarred Demon Good luck! Have fun [=

From what I have seen of this deck. I play the same base but Jevela on MTGO. A removing the other generals is a good play. You'd be better off with Thrax then Jevala She is best when she is being casted from the command zone multiple times. Other then that tutors are always good. Everything else is mostly what you expect in a draw deck.

You need Rewind to go with Tamiyo, the Moon Sage . When her ultimate is down, you have unlimited counterspells.

Wow you took this in a new direction from what I'm use to seeing but still managed to put almost all the best cards every one else runs into it, and without changing your deck structure not much I can suggest would work out for you maybe Winds of Change or Helm of the Ghastlord but it can be dangerous on nekuzar when you have Forced Fruition out in multi player games you can deck yourself in 1-3 turns if your opponents all decide to play a spell or 3 each turn you can draw your whole deck like (I snap my fingers) that! However there are other options that do the same thing without the "draw"backs (lol I love that pun) Elder Mastery makes them discard all they draw.....and more but no drawing for you or you can put the helm on to Fate Unraveler /Kederekt Parasite for the discard aspect of it only or you can run Psychosis Crawler so as your drawing your deck your opponents are taking damage from it. Other than that you can look at my deck for ideas Did you brain your hurt when you down fell?

@Kozelek

thanks for your input!

re: Winds of Change I used to have more wheel effects but I had to take those out to put more other stuff in, I decided to put in more board control instead of just wheeling like crazy, also I prefer those that discard rather than shuffle into library since I have a mill sub-theme going on.

re: Helm of the Ghastlord yes it's quite dangerous haha.

re: Elder Mastery I had this in my deck, but I took it out since there were quite a few cards that worked with my opponents actually holding on to all the cards they drew. You've reminded me though that it does allow me to deal damage without giving them the opportunity to draw any answers, so I might try to fit it back in.

re: Psychosis Crawler Again this was in my deck, but I found it pretty underwhelming, since I'm focused more on my opponents drawing rather than myself. Also it was pretty much kill on sight despite other cards being more threatening.

That's just my opinion though, if you could offer more analysis to the contrary I'd be happy to hear them!

Personally in Oprah Magic! I use Psychosis Crawler most effectively with Decree of Pain . Drawing 22 cards is nothing to shake a stick at.

That being said, why the lack of wipeage?

You should add Warstorm Surge to go with that Grave betrayal, that way you deal more damage when you steal their creatures, which kills MORE creatures, which basically makes an almost endless cycle each turn.

Skeakin of which, you mind giving a review of my deck: (Proliferate ALL THE COUNTERS!!!) for me?

Otherworld Atlas is a Temple Bell on coke. I feel like you're running too many lands, though. I could see you easily going down to 36 with little to no problems in between. However my less than popular opinion would be to go down a lot more to the realm of 33 and add a couple of talismans/ signets, and free up a couple more card slots. If you ever decide to go back to Windfall /Wheel and Deal techniques I would have to recommend Liliana's Caress . It also works really well with Anvil of Bogardan . Also, Tezzeret the Seeker is an absolute slam funk in decks like these. Not only can he untap two of your mana rocks, obviously, but the list of artifacts he can fetch the turn you play him is pretty damn nice. In fact, there are only two artifacts in your deck he isn't able to fetch the turn he comes down. Your deck looks a lot more sophisticated than mine, considering I've been playing this commander for all of a week, but maybe my list could offer some ideas. Razein' Hell

Have you thought about Homeward Path ? I see you've got some things to make Nekusar indestructible, and it would be a shame to have someone steal him (assuming he has lost his booties). Kind of works against animating others' creatures, but I feel like you would rather have Nekusar than whatever you revived.

Ophidian Eye Curiosity Helm of the Ghastlord or Tandem Lookout all say "you draw, I'll draw" and all combo with niv mizzet to do some serious damage. Another combos piece is Mind Over Matter but I see you already have that one. Very solid +1. Check out my list Nekusar's Perfect Storm for more card choices and advice. I'm always lookin for advice myself, and o course +1s. Lol

Just to correct a misperception by Kozelek, Forced Fruition causes whatever opponent played the spell to draw the seven cards. It means that opponents can't get their hands under seven cards by playing spells, and ends up helping deck them much much faster. Other than that, great deck. It's not in the style I usually play so I can't recommend much, but I do suggest Blue Sun's Zenith as a sort of repeatable Prosperity
