Ive made really awesome Mill/ Discard deck. However, am having a issue with choosing the color. Should I keep it Dimir deck. Like I originally plan or to turn into a mono-black deck. Please, take a look at it and tell me. Which way you think I should take the deck.

Well according to tapped out, you would need to replace Snuff Out to keep it modern. Other than that, would you concider making a seperate deck for each?

Yeah, I found that out. When I put up the deck. However, at moment i don't have a Doom Blade to replace it.

and normally, I would agree with you seperate deck into two one for mill and one discard. However, with card like Horrifying Revelation , Liliana's Caress and Mindcrank . you can pull off a nice mill discard. Which leaves me kinda stuck.

So, this deck will either be mono-black or Dimir. am not going to separate away it into two decks.

Not sure if it is considered mill but one of my favorite cards for black is Sadistic Sacrament .

Black ramp would be very helpful to kick this card, but even without kicking it it allows you to take out key cards.

Then there is Surgical Extraction , it helps if you know what playsets are in a deck prior to using this. Cards that combo well with this on turn one is Thoughtseize , Duress and Despair.

Also instead of Distress you can play Hymn to Tourach

@CChaos

am not sure, how I feel about Sadistic Sacrament am trying to work with Liliana Vess , Rise of the Dark Realms , Grimoire of the Dead . However, I'll keep as maybe

and While Distress is awesome looking card. your right I should really switch it out. I Considering switching out for Smallpox . However, I lose the reveal of the Players hand.

and the card that's hanging me up with dimir deck is Quicken . and with so many Sorcery in the deck I want to use. or find artifact or black replacement
