Deck Challenge: Millgro

A friend came up with a fun idea that I think could become competitive, a blue agro deck based off mill by using cards like Mindshrieker and Trepanation Blade. My challenge to you is to make a strait blue "Millgro" deck that is standard legal.

Rules:
1) Have fun
2) Must be a standard Millgro deck (agro + mill)
3) Must be blue and only blue

PS. Don't forget that Undead Alchemist's second ability can provide a mill deck with an army of Zombies :p

I've been toying with this idea for a while. Ever since Zendikar I've made drafts of this deck, improving it with every iteration. Now we see my latest draft, my own personal Millgro. It's got the aggro to win, but enough control to use its mill as its main win condition.

Also, fun fact to consider: although Grand Architect can't use its ability to activate Mindshrieker's ability, it can activate the ability of a Phyrexian Metamorph copying Mindshrieker.

I broke the rules...

It's U/G, and slightly different than what you asked for, but I think with some tweaking this could be pretty awesome.

I kinda ran with your idea, also threw in liquimetal coating to try and get the combo off as quickly as possible. This could be a really quick killer, though it's kind of weak right now. Reminds me a little of Kiln Fiend decks.

I like it as a mill deck, but (and I should have explained this earlier) what I'm looking for is a deck that looks like a mill deck, but is in fact using that mill as a form of pump for the aggroness of the deck. Agro is what I want as the key win condition :p
