Hi everyone, i was going up against a friend the other night with my deck Millville and he dropped a witchbane orb and while i eventually won the match i was powerless to mill him directly due the orb being in play, im looking for a sidedeck recommendation to take care of this problem. All feedback is greatly appreciated

If you're running white/esper .... Sundering Growth is your best option. If not,counter it before it hits the ground or Cyclonic Rift it back and counter it when you know they will play it again if just playing U/B (dimir).

oki, sorry didn't check, the last options are your best bets. Though I do suggest going esper for the mill decks.

gufymike Thanks for the input, i think cyclonic rift is just what i need. this next question may seem silly but im not up on my MTG terms, what exactly is "esper"

esper is a name given to W/U/B decks because of the shards of alara block, which had tri-color shards as a main point of their story line.

I played mill for a while and you have two options, if you know its gonna happen save mana to counter or throw 4 glacial fortress in your sideboard and sundering growth or shattering blow
