Dear dender, I have been through almost every milling card in existance, testing them against both goldfishes and live decks.The worst card ever in any test I have performed is chronic flooding.If your deck does not involve tapping, then It's vital that you remove it from any kind of millingdeck.

I see your point with chronic flooding; so I have replaced them with Dream Twist, another Hedron crab, and a Catharctic Adept. Thank you for the advice. :)
If your format allows it, also replace curse of the bloody tome with mesmeric orb.I have been playing mesmeric orb in so many decks, and it's very reliable.I personally decktest a lot against legacy, and even against decks with artifact hatred the mesmeric orb is wild enough to mill 5-6 cards against the worst matchups and about 12-13 cards against the best matchups.Or you can start testing the cards yourself.In general assume that your opponents kill you with creatures at turn 4 in modern, and turn 5 in legacy.Consider every turn and what would happen if you played a card at either the beginning or just before you die.For example cathartic adept would mill 4 cards if played at your turn 1, while it would mill 0 cards if you played it the turn before you die (Consider it to be turn 4-5 depending on format)so the adept mills 4, 3, 2, 1, and 0 cards if it's play is measured over all 5 turns. Divide by total turns (5) and you get the average number of cards it would theoretically mill (2 cards)Then consider if another card mills more for the same mana (Tome scour = 5 cards for U)It's best if you play against live decks, and put coins on a card for each card a card mills, that way you can add all scores of the individual card and divide it with the times it milled anything, or 0.You will get a fairly accurate number in about 20-30 measures. I have lists on how fast almost all milling cards work, so post any questions about cards you consider, and I'll deliver the data. (Except cards from ravnica revisited and gatecrash, I'm not done with all mill in those) Take a look at my page (Click my name) to see my versions of mill in modern and legacy.
My "current legacy mill" was at a large tournament this weekend! I ranked as number 29 out of 84 players. At my usual gamingstore I rank as the 16th at having earned most points during the month. I'm getting closer to my goals ;)
