I've been thinking about building a mill deck that could play against all the Azorius and Esper control deck in my local metagame for a quite long time. Now here it is. I would be very thankful for any piece of advice that could make this deck better.

GAME PLANThe game plan is to control the field for the first few turns preventing the opponent from making too much board presence and occasionally mill him.The real milling starts when you cast your Jace, Memory Adept or Consuming Aberration. You either mill your opponent to death or kill him with Consuming Aberration fed by your opponent's graveyard.

Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver and Nightveil Specter are also very helpful. They may not mill much, but stealing opponent's cards is very useful. You may often find yourself winning the match by playing your opponent's deck against him.

After being crushed by aggros at last FNM few changes have been made in this deck. -added AEtherize - great way to deal with a massive creature assault + kills attacking tokens -added Crypt Incursion - works really good against creature heavy decks which surprisingly started to flow into my local metagame, especially good after a turn 5 Traumatize
