Deck Description

Ok so I'm trying a new style of deck building, mill. The deck idea behind the deck is to stall until you can start milling massive amounts of cards from your opponents libraries. I Evan figured out how to mill multiple players, but I feel there could be a few tweaks that might make it better.

Deck discussion for Dimir test

Small problem with Illusionist's Bracers here. The only ability it can copy with what you have in here is the tap mill effect granted by Phenax. The Bracers can only copy activated abilities, not triggerd abilities.

The way it reads I could also use it on mirko vosk.

Nope, that's a triggered effect.

From Gatherer:
An activated ability is written in the form “Cost: Effect.”

So, the only other creature in here it can affect is Returned Phalanx, but copying that ability is redundant.

Nope, that's also a triggered ability, not activated.

An activated ability has a cost cost* followed by ":" then an effect. (cost: effect).

*A cost is normally one of these:
Paying mana
Tapping the card itself and / or something else
Sacrificing something
A combination of the above

A triggered ability is an ability that doesn't have an active cost, but is rather trigger by something happening.

Illusionist's Bracers can only copy activated abilities.

What you would be looking for would be "Strionic Resonator "
