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

Whoa cool. And yeah that would def lower the MC and make the deck faster

CajunJynx

-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

RevanJJ

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?

RevanJJ

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!

RevanJJ

Also 4 {Dream Twist} on the way and 2 {Dread Waters}
