Attempt at standard Mill

Deck Help forum

Posted on March 11, 2014, 12:07 a.m. by MadScientist

So I keep getting told that Mill doesn't work well in standard so I sought out to build a deck that can work as a mill using creatures and control to keep it going long enough for mill to be a win-con.

Let me know your thoughts and what it could use to be a little more effective.

I would strongly recommend Wall of Frost over Nighthowler . Wall of Frost provides the same amount of devotion and occupies the same mana slot but has a much greater effect on the game once Phenax, God of Deception resolves. Tapping to mill 7 is insane!

I would also recommend some additional removal. Hero's Downfall would be preferred but Doom Blade and/or Ultimate Price would work. I would drop Scourgemark and Pilfered Plans .

I like these Ideas the wall of frost does make more sense than nighthowler at this point.

Night howler is kind of a late game card once there is a bunch of creatures in the graveyard it gets pretty big.

More removal is a good idea. Scourgemark and Pilfered Plans give me card draw I am not sure that taking them out is such a good idea. Card draw is so important IMO.
