Deck discussion for Destructive Mill

You could run Jace's Phantasm over the Minister of Inquiries to have a nice big blocker. I also don't like the Shriekhorn, but I've only played Mill once, so I don't know how good or bad it actually would be in the deck.

Minister of Inquiries actually helps towards the Mill plan. While a good alternative, Jace's Phantasm only benefits from the Mill, it doesn't advance it. Minister is also a one mana mill 6 (over two turns) and any removed allows another to use its energy. Aether Hub also supplies more mill energy.

Similarly, Shriekhorn is a 1 mana Mill 6 (over three turns).

And all that is excluding the boost from Fraying Sanity.

If you can afford it / already have it, Damnation might be better in sideboard than Bile Blight. Languish is a cheaper substitute to Damnation. Too bad there's not enough Swamps to make Mutilate good. Lastly, Bontu's Last Reckoning is worth considering too, especially if you get Fraying Sanity out.
