Thanks, but I haven't even added a sideboard yet!

If milling is a bigger concern than going down via life points I'd suggest sideboarding a Psychic Spiral turn that close call into a mill-out for your opponent.

Oh man, this looks like a crazy fun deck. Heck, it's mana-unspecific enough to not need any Steam Vents . One thing though: Hypersonic Dragon . Have you considered it for your maindeck since you have so many sorceries? the Dragon + Melek would be pretty solid.

As for sideboard, maybe Frostburn Weird or Anger of the Gods for Hexproof creatures.

Also, I absolutely love your deck name.

Best deck name ever!

I don't think you need Skullcrack . Lightning Strike might be more versatile?

I strongly suggest keeping Skullcrack. You don't want an Ordeal of Heliod or Sphinx's Revelation putting a game out of reach.

+1 to sideboarding four Anger of the Gods

It's a mill deck so it doesn't matter how much life they have. I'd add a Cyclonic Rift to deal with non-creatures and big board states.

Spellheart Chimera would be a wincon in this deck. I would definitely think about fitting in 3 of them.

I just noticed that the color cost is completely symmetrical. Why not the mana base?

...I dunno... Never thought about it....

@Eldersage Ooh that's a cool idea, he would be huge!

If your goal is to win through damage, cut the mill for, say, Guttersnipe or Young Pyromancer and bump up to 4 chimeras. The idea of self mill into a big chimera is cute, but that's all it really is. Magma jet is a lot better in this than shocks, so I'd bump that up to 4 and cut shock entirely. Dissolve is really good too.

My goal isn't to win through damage, the lifegain in standard right now is through the roof. I never mill myself. Ever.

I hear what you are saying about Shock , Thanks!

Never say never - It's a desperate move but those Psychic Spirals can really turn a game around after a bit of self milling. If you have the Psychic Spiral in hand keep self mill open as an option, using Traumatize on yourself then Psychic Spiral can win a hopeless situation in two turns or less depending on your mana situation.

Ha! Didn't even consider that. It is desperate, but ''zany-wincons" is my middle name!

The problem with the mill in here is that you're losing out on important control elements. Tome Scour , against an aggro deck that can win on turn 5 or 6, is basically a dead card, where you'd be much better served with an Anger of the Gods to stop the 5 weenies attacking you dead in their tracks. And Psychic Spiral + Spellheart Chimera is a pretty horrible nonbo

Anger of the Gods is already in my sideboard for Aggro match-ups, and you guessed what is coming out for it... Tome Scour .

Thanks for the feedback! Keep posting!
