For starters I would decide what deck you want to be, are you an aggro deck that's using mill to pump your creatures or a control deck that's milling as a win condition? You want to streamline the deck to either method and not sit awkwardly on the fence between the two like you are currently.

Other suggestions:Any card that isn't repeatable mill is really not worth running, like Mind Sculpt. While 7 sounds like a lot you've used up a whole card for it without directly effecting the game and they still have a lot of library left. You should stick with mill cards that can be used over and over. Paranoid Delusions can hit over and over, and Thought Scour at least replaces itself.

Also even if mill is plan A, you actually don't want to run that many dedicated mill cards all things considered. You need to be staying alive while you're trying to mill them out, which means you want to load up on more removal and counters in relation to cards that just mill them. Think about it this way, every time you use a card to only mill them that's one more resource that they are essentially ahead of you in their plan to simply kill you.

Well I mainly wanna mill you out. That's why I only have 2 creatures. Consuming and Invisible Stalker the Blade is to get the stalker a 5/5 or 6/6 unblockable. Sure everynow and then it grinds a land first card. For the most part though I always grind 5 or 6 and then swing with him. I agree with you though on most of your feedback. I need to take out 2 rouges and add some more mill or defense cards. I appreciate you taking time out and helping though. Thanks
