Start typing a card name and use the auto-complete feature to quickly select the card you're trying to add. Enter a quantity and add that card to your sideboard!
Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.
Still some small work in the progress, been looking into a blue-black mill for a couple months now. Looking for some advice!
Drop the first island you get immediately. Swamp can hold off. Drop the small creatures and start milling with any sorceries. Hold archive trap back until opponent tries to search and shuffle. Draw Ashiok? Hold until you control three other creatures and opponent has minimum of 15 cards in graveyard. That graveyard is going to give you a small advantage. Keep up the protection and keep hammering down his throat with your mill/soft exile.

Best mil I've seen in a long time. I don't think you need Phenax, though. He doesn't mil as much as your other cards, and for five mana, you could be playing something a lot better.

Dude, he has both Wight of Precinct Six and Consuming Aberration. If you drop a Phenax after those are out, you can literally mill their entire deck on the spot. I know because I have a mill deck that has those cards in it, along with walls for the defense and specifically because of Phenax. Also, Breaking // Entering is basically the same as Glimpse, just right card instead of ten. Might be worth finding room for
Thank you both for your interaction and comments! I've considered what you both said to a high extent!
With the high number of fetch lands in Modern, you should be running 4 Archive Trap. You're also missing the best mill artifact in the format: Mesmeric Orb. Shelldock Isle is also great in mill decks, and Surgical Extraction gets rid of most annoying shuffle back effects like Tentacruel, the Aeons Torn.
I have mesmeric orb in side board because I'm not sure yet how well it will fit in with this. I wanted to get the deck and play around with it for better results. I haven't heard of shelldock isles however? And surgical extraction is too much for me to consider. Also, isn't tentacruel that squid Pokemon?
I strongly recommend trying the Orb mainboard for a while. This is Tentacruel:http://www.deviantart.com/art/Emrakul-185836474
I see what you mean...now! Wow! Scary resemblance really.
