Milling 3 cards translates the same as dealing 1 damage.  Do you see people designing decks around {shivan gorge} as a win con?

Math behind logic is below.
3÷60=.05
.05×20= 1
Well that would be true if your opponent never drew cards. They draw 1 per turn plus their opening (probably 6-7 but maybe lower). Not saying it's good just saying it's not as bad as gorge
you are technically correct.  And it is worse than gorge because you have creatures to help with damage yet they do not help with mill.  2 strategies = bad :P

Just look at Gerads list. It's pretty darn good.

The point of this deck isn't to be amazing. It's to win with drownyard and play spells that cost UUU and BB in the same deck

I'm really no expert with modern but I think all the fetches, T-seizes, and shocks will damage you too much. {Urborg tomb of yawgmoth} is good with fetches (you can still get mana for them) and I might run a couple of basics, too. 4 drownyards seems like a lot, since you need 4 lands to use it and it only taps for gray.

I would do:
-1 drownyard
-1 verdant catacombs
-1 Polluted Delta
+1 Urborg
+1 Island
+1 Forest

Also, out of curiosity, how playable do you think Ashiok will be modern?
I think pretty playable. She steals some pretty sick stuff, rhino, goyf, tasi if you can get the loyalty up all the way. Sadly I might cut her or SB her because she's REALLY bad against twin and affinity.

SB sounds good. I was mostly asking about him because I have two and I am wondering if his price will do the same thing another certain 3 cmc walker did when it rotated out of standard

Also, in modern people generally pay at least 3 life a game, which translates to 9 cards milled.
