Notes:
This is my first mill deck. I will be playing w this in FNM tournaments tomorrow night . I have many many Standard cards that could go in this so any suggestions will e really helpful. The only limits are that I'm maxed on my Jaces(only the 2) and only have 3 Fog Banks currently. Otherwise, I most likely have any cards that get suggested. I was thinking to use defenders like the Fog Bank to buy time as I work the mill. Very unsure of what I've made so, again, all advice appreciated, thanks.

Which ones would you bump to 4 and which would u remove for them? I can bump up all except for the Mindcrushers, the jace's, the fog banks, Trepanation blades. The rest I have play sets of :)
And thanks

I would take out the mindcrushers
And use {invisible stalker} instead, quicker and he is awesome equipped with a trep blade.

Whoa cool. And yeah that would def lower the MC and make the deck faster
-2 codex shredders, + 4 {mind sculpt}...
You need to run some control
You are gonan get stomped fast by just about everyone because you aren't thinking about preserving your life total or survivability
{think twice} is a must, you need draw, and it's really hard to run mono blue mill because you need certain cards like {safe passage} or {fog} to last out some turns
{devastation tide} would be nice to help you stall until they arenmilled
Cool thanks for the ideas guys.
I'm going to the store to see if they have any Devasation Tides or 1 Jace the Mind Sculptor, plus one more Fog Bank.
I added 4 { Unsummon} and 1 {Sleep} as I only had the 1 sleep to help w buying time. I figure in combination with my creature defenses and if I can get a few {Devastation Tide} that I should have enough defense. Think so?
Bought some cards and made changes with what I have, posted above.
{mind shrieker} over shriekgeist. 1-2 more on the increasing confusion & sands of delirium.

Good call! I ordered 4 Mind Shriekers, 3 increasing confusions, and one Sands of Delirium today. :) idk what to replace though. I also grabbed one more { Crosstown Courier}, 4 { mind sculpt}, 4 { Think Twice} and 4 {Devastation Tide} . Any ideas which of these I should use(seems like I should use all, but not sure what to take out to make room for them. Thanks!
Also 4 {Dream Twist} on the way and 2 {Dread Waters}
Some of this mill looks mana heavy you sure you don't want to splash green for ramp?
I was wondering if I should. It is hard to tell what to take out to put in the splash though. You are right though the MC jumps from the 1-2 drops all the way to the 4 drops +
