Notes:
A deck I threw together for very cheap, 20 minutes before round 1. Little did I know it would go 8-0 and winner 1st place in FNM. This is the deck list I won with. It was a blast to play with and I'm going I continue playing with it. Any ideas on what I should add in?

Yeah, that was my thoughts as well, but there isn't much in standard or in the meta that my store was playing that could get passed a 0/6 flyer. Let alone fog banks. Jund zombies brough me down to 12 because of messenger. But couldn't ever swing, all games ended with mill. I popped off infinite combo three times of the 8. But Jund, U/R delver, some rakdos aggro deck, Humans, some kind of a spirit deck, G/W flicker is what I played, plus a couple more I can't remember. But yeah, it's true. This deck bested the top decks at my store. Honestly it was rather unbelievable

Basically all I did was play big defenders early, usually had 4-5 out. And hold off attacks until I either hit my infinite mill combo pieces, doorkeepered the hell out of them, or undead alchemist and over ran them with 2/2 zombie tokens that mill them for each damage they would of dealt, and then even more zombies come out. But humans had out numbered my defenders but all I was taking was 2-3 a turn. Casted a fog during that game which allowed me to survive enough to finish off the milling. I was astonished that this deck performed unlike anyone expected. I just threw it together because I wanted to make a deck using axebane. And it was pretty successful

I think you just you answered my "I want to make a mill deck but can't find a way to make it interesting" conundrum. I hope you don't mind if I make this and try it out! It looks fun!

I do not mind at all. The best part about it to me is I have been playing magic for a decade, and I have never come across a standard deck that is so inexpensive as this one. To succeed in standard a $200 deck is generally a must. I traded a snap caster Mage for this entire deck basically. Digging through the commons and uncommons standard box's at my store. Literatly built it 20 minutes before round 1 of FNM. I built it just to satisfy my want for an axebane deck. But by all means give it a try and enjoy. I call the deck, DDW. Defender Deck Wins.

I've been putting one together too! Thanks for showing me that it can actually be done :)

8-0 with 18 Land?

With such a low mana curve and and axebane shenanigans, I can see it happening. He only needs 3 on the field.

This deck was mostly what I was going to use for a door to nothingness deck, and you may have answered what else needed to be in it haha..
