Twenty score and four-thousand views ago I created on this site, an awesome deck, conceived in Dimir colors, and dedicated to the proposition that mill is the most fun deck style.

This is my most fun deck to play, in my opinion that is. If you prefer playing Commander/EDH with friends rather than competitively then you probably know that games can involve lots of diplomacy. Lets just say blue/black is great in diplomatic situations, for example: "Oh you want to play that? Is everyone else okay with that? No? Oh sorry but the tribe has spoken, Counterspell ."

Along with being a fun deck in terms of diplomacy, mill is also one of the most entertaining ways to win a game. Sorry to all you aggro and/or creature decks out there, but you guys are just boring and not fun (with the exception of various gimmick decks).

Okay time to talk about how the deck plays. The idea of this deck is to play diplomatically by not being a threat until you know you can win. You just sit there dropping some not too threatening creatures and getting on everyone's good side with some well timed spot removal and control to stop other players from killing everyone. The best strategy is to play Oona, Queen of the Fae and spread out her mill to get some tokens without picking on any one player. Then, late game, you drop one of the power combos listed below or a powerful mill card to shift from no-big-deal to about-to-win.

This deck is definitely for Johnnys as it has almost no cards that are just straight up powerful I win cards and it is not a competitive deck. Instead it is based off of using a few power combos and a lot of trickery/diplomacy to win.

Thanks for all of the upvotes and advice, please keep it coming.
