WOAAAAH RIDE THE SLIDE

This deck is just a simple mill-them-out deck I made when I bought MTGO since I wanted something cheap and I had never played a blue deck before, let alone a mill deck. And it's a lot of fun! It actually started it's life as a Brain in the Jar deck (which I may add to this site later) but eventually turned into this.

How to play Show

It's a pretty simple deck, you just have to be patient with it and not be afraid to take a small bit of damage to save your bacon later. Tap creatures with Grip of the Roil and Send to Sleep , and when their board fills up use Engulf the Shore during their pre-combat phase to stall them at least a turn, very likely 2. Prism Ring played early will keep you alive a few extra turns long enough to mill them with Sphinx's Tutelage and Startled Awake   . Don't forget that if you have some Manic Scribe s on the field before you Engulf the Shore , you can replay them for extra mill triggers!

Current issues Show

Frankly, without a means to actually kill creatures or deal damage, planeswalkers can be trouble, along with anything too big to bounce.

Recommendation are always helpful!
