For my mill deck it has been hard to decide whether to use Nephalia Drownyard or Ipnu Rivulet.

If I had to choose between the two, I would probably go for rivulet. Drownyard can't produce colored mana and is very expensive to activate for not much benifit. I personally don't think either are nessecary, and if you are looking for upgrades there are better cards to improve your deck.

Deck seems slow, you need a lock piece. Something like a couple wraths or, if you can possibly afford it, Ensnaring Bridge is insane.

What you need is more board interaction, like Fatal Push or even just Cast Down, and some untapped duals. Choked Estuary is okay, River of Tears might help. Just lands that can ener untapped, regardless of how often, will increase this decks power by a lot.

On top of that, I'd use 4x Ipnu Rivulet and 1-2x Nephalia Drownyard. They're both okay but Rivulet is a free roll and Drownyard is a little less so.

If you want to see that deck do better look at this: Nightmare (Final Draft)
