Have you considered Duskmantle Guildmage ? It's trigger would be lethal combo'd with several of your mill sorceries and Jace.

Idk if Sol Ring is modern legal because running that with Mind Grind is very effective! Turn 3-4 um mill until you hit 4 lands also another card thats nice to use is Tome Scour ts a simply one drop that has plenty to give for you

Best. Deck name. Ever.

No Mirko Vosk, Mind Drinker ? the Sword of Body and Mind is also a terrifying card to combo with Mirko.

• "You know the thing about chaos, it's beer"

I wish I could +1 for the name and +1 for the deck too.

-1x Thought Scour +1x Surgical Extraction

Sideboard 4x Jace's Phantasm ?

This is legit. So, I'm assuming you're trying to play Modern competitively?

If you're looking to just fuck people who play with "play-sets" then you'll definitely need

Extirpate

Surgical Extraction

and

Haunting Echoes

However.... If you're looking to play Mill and essentially shut down the opponent's deck by removing their playsets then I'd recommend you take a look at my modern mill deck. Semi similar to yours.

+1 for you! Good start, keep working at it.

Also, you need fetchlands. They proc your Crabs twice.

Love it!

Snapcaster Mage and some Darkness would be a great addition

+1 for name :)

Tome Scour instead of Thought Scour

After playtesting a few times, your land base seems way too high, I always seem to flood which slows the kill by 2 to 3 turns. Personally i would trim 2-4 lands and add a few defenders, like Fog Bank , because I'm not seeing it competing with agro decks for 4th turn or prior kills. That said, I love the deck, and think it will do well against many decks.

Trim 3 lands, go up to a playset of Archive Trap and Surgical Extraction , Peronally, I would run Inquisition of Kozilek instead of Thoughtsieze but that's based on your meta.

I think moving Damnation and Go for the Throat to the sb would be a good call. That way you can focus on what you want to have your deck actually do. And allow those to recover you if you NEED them.

Also one of my favorite combos ever. Turn 1. Ghost Quarter tap and sac to destroy opponents land. Then they search for basic. Archive Trap can then be played for 0. #sweet

Or you can Ghost Quarter tap sac to destroy and then Shadow of Doubt for other shenanigans.

Love the deck. Just think it needs to be more focused on Mill and less on Mill/Control.

Think about adding Grindclock to this deck. Its a pretty great mill card.

Personally I wouldn't, you need to have won before Grindclock would become useful.

TheMercadian Good call. I actually took your advice on this one. Otherwise they would just be dead pulls.Also the Ghost Quarter trick on t1 sounds pretty fun xD

sas3197 I agree that Grindclock is a pretty good mill card. It's just too slow for what this deck needs.

Lord007 I can see where Inquisition of Kozilek has it's merits over Thoughtsieze. Shut down their early game, and not have to lose the 2 life.

kululu00 i can see where Tome Scour is nice, but at the same time an empty hand is never a good thing for a deck like this. I'd rather mill them for 3 less on the 1-drop and be able to draw a card. Just for consistency's sake. What are your thoughts?

As far as Tome Scour and Thought Scour is concerned, I personally would go Thought Scour but it is really a personal choice.

joker ( Goblin Battle Jester ) said: "it's simple...we kill the Batman ( Vampire Nighthawk )!!"

I would like to suggest Ensnaring Bridge for a sideboard because usually you run through your hand pretty quickly.

MariosAmj Well played sir xD

tgcchallenger Good call!

Ensnaring Bridge .... a card I have continually misread until now... not a bad choice, but I personally don't like it

I was playtesting this awesome deck and I think I'd run another Watery Grave and maybe some Darkslick Shores so that you can play a turn one Inquisition and then turn two Hedron Crab BEFORE you drop you second land.
