Here's a mill deck that was originally built to spite Phenax, because I believe he's cheap, but I ended up putting him in anyway.

Anyway, the deck is built around swinging rather than milling to death (though that is an alternative win condition). Nighthowler bestowed onto Deathcult Rogue or a sideboarded Woodlot Crawler can be especially deadly.

Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver is there just to annoy the opponent as he gets +2 and mills the opponent for 3. I've used him to cast giant creatures that my opponents controlled (like a dragon), and then bestowed Nighthowler onto it. That = Fun.

Traumatize is interesting in this deck simply because there are three different versions. A regular one, a japanese one, and a 9th edition white-bordered one. It doesn't really make the deck better, it's just fun. Though Traumatize is my favorite mill card.
