How do you deal with someone that has 12 fog-like effects as well as a mix of supreme verdicts and terminus?
I sideboarded 3 Nevermore and 2 Witchbane Orb. Called Nevermore on Supreme Verdict then Wtichbaned.
His strategy was to boardclear and x12 fog while drawing his entire board with some artifact. Meanwhile, he'd try and shut me down with 3-4 mill jaces and some tamiyos. If his deck got low he would elixir of immortality.
This crushed my token deck (Though they were very long games and we almost ran out of time on game 2). He would eventually mill me out.
Even when I used witchbane orb to counter jace, his mill artifact got me. We would both draw(not targeted) = to the counters on it, he would get fogs, then counter my whole board every turn till I was milled out.
issnt the mill artifact a target thing like all other mill effects? if so doesnt Witchbane Orb just stop its entire mill?

also bwfore he uses elixir its an option to use a card:Tormod's Crypt or an other form of removing graveyard.

I think he may be talking about Otherworld Atlas , based on the provided description of the card.
Not all mill or draw effects are targeted.

You wait for GTC, then play Skullcrack .
Supreme Verdict isn't really easy to deal with. Rootborn Defenses is the only solution I can think of, and it doesn't seem worth it.
Your question would be easier to answer if you could approximate the decklist. However, the deck concept is familiar to me. I don't know how you get around it, really. It wins against aggro and tempo until unpreventable damage becomes more prevalent.
