Deck Description

Relatively standard Mefolk Mill Deck, but with a "Trap" Based spin.

This deck has a very fun and unique play style: Build your Merfolk army while tapping it to Mill Cards, Create Tokens, and Gain Life. You often will win without attacking a single time.

* Deck Strategy *

--- During Your Turn ---

1. Use Drowner of Secrets to Tap Merfolk Cards and Mill Opponents Deck

2. Tap Judge of Currents to gain life for every Merfolk Tapped

3. Tap Stonybrook Schoolmaster to create Merfolk Tokens, which you can then use to either block with, or tap to Mill more cards and Gain more Life.

4. Use Merrow Commerce to Untap all of your Merfolk at the end of the turn.

--- During Opponents Turn ---

1. Use your Traps, Counters, and Instants on opponent.

2. Wait for opponent to use spell, Use Lullmage Mentor's Ability to tap 7 Merfolk and counter opponents spell. ( Don't forget to Gain Life, and Mill Opponents Deck for every Merfolk card tapped this way )

3. At end of Opponents Second Main Phase use "Drowner of Secrets" to Tap all untapped Merfolk.
Mill your opponents deck, gain life and create tokens, during his turn.

*** Fun Things To Know ***

1. Every time you use "Drowner of Secrets" to tap Grimoire Thief" Mill one card for Drowner's ability, and three more cards for Grimoire's ability, Resulting in a total of 4 cards milled.

2. Multiple Merrow Commerce do stack.
You can do the Drowner of Secrets Tap / Merrow Commerce Untap Combo as many times equal to the number of Merrow Commerce enchantments you have on the field.

I have a buddy with this same deck strategy. And it is a sickening deck. Stands up well to pretty much whatever is thrown on the field.
