A deck designed to hurt in multiple ways based on how the "box" is solved. It is both a Mill deck and a life drain deck. It can kill a deck or kill a player using blue and black to control the board and kill off creatures.

Milling for the deck is based on using Jace's Erasure along with with Mind Grind and Mind Funeral as the big hitters. Thought Scour and Tome Scour are in the deck for the quick mill which if Jace's Erasure is out then Thought Scour has a bit of extra benefit to the drawing.

Life drain of the deck is based heavily on Underworld Dreams with Killing Wave to help. The object here is a bit of control if their life is low with Wave or hit them early with it and drop Underworld to clean out the rest.

Artifact support is found in some good old stand bys. Aether Spellbomb works as control with a bounce or a draw which can help for the deck and mill. Howling Mine is always a classic and can bring the hurt with mill and life drain. Teferi's Puzzle Box though is the star of the show and deck. With Underworld it drains, with Erasure it mills and with bounce control it can get rid of cards to the bottom of the deck.

The control of the deck is in Spellbombs, the Remand and the Unsummon with the ability to bounce the cards and keep them off the table or gone with Teferi's. Killing Wave also works as a nice creature control based on my mana at the time.

The sideboard has more creature destruction with Doom Blade and Smother if I come against a more aggro heavy deck I cannot stall well. It also can throw out Ensnaring Bridge to stop creatures if needed. It then runs Temple Bell to increase the draw mill/life drain as well as help draw into what I need. For a finale it runs Crypt Incursion which I can get big fast, shut down digger decks and have a decent blocker / swinger if needed.
