[James]

this needs grim discoveries.

[Fryza]

What's card do again?

[Kaalia]

There's no reason for it. Getting creatures back isn't going to help out much.

Only thing I might suggest is Cathartic Adepts over Lurking Informants, solely because they cost less to play.

[Fryza]

Yeah, the Informants are more for space then anything. I'll look that card up, thank you.

[DjJoe]

Where art thou Mine Funeral?

Your deck SCREAMS Mind Funeral.

Mind Funeral 1UB
Sorcery
Target opponent reveals cards from the top of his or her library until four land cards are revealed. That player puts all cards revealed this way into his or her graveyard.

[Fryza]

What set and rarity is this?! This sounds fantastic.

It's an uncommon from Alara Reborn.

There's also a few other cards you can look into, consider these:

Memory Erosion 1UU
Rare, Shard of Alara
Enchantment
Whenever an opponent casts a spell, that player puts the top two cards of his or her library into his or her graveyard.


Hedron Crab U
Uncommon- Zendikar
Creature- Crab
Landfall — Whenever a land enters the battlefield under your control, target player puts the top three cards of his or her library into his or her graveyard.
0/2

And some non-standard cards:

Sanity Grinding UUU
Rare- Eventide
Sorcery
Chroma — Reveal the top ten cards of your library. For each blue mana symbol in the mana costs of the revealed cards, target opponent puts the top card of his or her library into his or her graveyard. Then put the cards you revealed this way on the bottom of your library in any order.

Memory Sluice (U/B)
Uncommon- Shadowmoor
Sorcery
Target player puts the top four cards of his or her library into his or her graveyard.
Conspire (As you cast this spell, you may tap two untapped creatures you control that share a color with it. When you do, copy it and you may choose a new target for the copy.)

[Fryza]

I'll take a look into these.

[Fryza]

Bump. Changes made:

-Rise from Grave
-Rite of Replication
-Clone
-Lurking Informant
-Fill with Fright
-Wall of Frost

+Jace, the Mind Sculptor
+Hedron Crab
+Hedron Crab
+Hedron Crab
+Hedron Crab
+Diabolic Tutor

Edit: Also, looking for something more effective than Lurking Informant. Not necessarily a creature, just something that would be more efficient in the deck.

I run blue/black mill as well, and a must is Archive Trap.
It's from Zendikar, its an instant, it cost 3 and 2 blue and they mill 13, but if they search their library, you can play it for free.
I would also drop 3 Swamps and 3 Islands and put in 4 Drowned Catacombs and 2 Terramorphic Expanses.
Liliana is good but she doesn't fit this play style, you should drop her, Lurking Informant, and Szadek for 3 No Mercy.
It's an old enchantment that says if a monster does damage to you, it's destroyed.
And Szadek is sick but he's really expensive, and really easy to get rid of.
Also, Get rid of the brainbites, fact or fiction, and ponder for 4 Mind Funerals.
Mind Funeral is one of the best control/mill cards ever made.
It get's rid of 4 lands plus usually at least 8 cards, I've milled up to 25 off of only one, so you can imagine what 4 could do.
I would also sideboard some Twincast, Howling Mine, and Font of Mythos.
Twincast can do extra milling and also be used as a counterspell, and the mines and mythos are draw power and also work as mill towards your opponent.

[Fryza]

Yeah, most of those changes have already been made, I just haven't updated. When I get the chance, I will add in the changes.

Probably make the side deck with more Type 2 cards.

Thank you for the input regardless.
