For extra opponent frustration, put the sideboard in there. The combo is an instant victory and will surely have your opponent seething with rage.

This is a solid mil deck, I would suggest a coulpe {Mirari}.  Maybe sideboard a couple {Crumbling Sanctuary} as well.

How about {Jesters Cap} or {Traumatize}? I have a deck in the Commander section called Oona's Dictatorship that has some pretty boss mill cards. ☺

It looks like this deck could be in Modern instead of Legacy.  I have a similar deck but I also have some {Tome Scours}.  If you're using Crabs, I'd recommend throwing in some {Evolving Wilds} and similar fetch lands too.  I've hit some people pretty hard with those Mind funerals too.   :D

I might agree on sideboarding {Jester's Cap}s or something like {Relic of Progenitus} or {Tormod's Crypt} in case you run into graveyard shenanigans.  Mill decks can be hosed by someone with an Eldrazi or two, so the Cap can help there.
