Deck Description

Yes, I know that a "Mill" deck without blue seems counterintuitive, but give it a look.

I'm recently back in the game, and this might properly be called an "Extraction" deck, rather than a traditional "Mill" deck, but it doesn't include the discard element that "Extraction" seems to favor. The goal is to seek and destroy first the pivotal cards in my opponent's deck, then everything else.

Noxious Revival and Reclaim combine to allow for up to 16 total Memoricide/Surgical Extraction's, with Charmbreaker Devil's making their reuse unlimited. Noxious Revival also means being able to stack my opponent's next draw with something I've got a card in hand to deal with.

Suggestions, anyone?

If I had Liliana, I'd use her, definitely. I pulled one in pre-release and promptly traded her for the two Karn's and the Garruk you see in this deck. I can bring myself to buy the occasional low-dollar cards for the sake of a deck, but with the cost of Liliana (and most of the Planeswalkers) I feel like I'd get more consistent victories by throwing the money at my opponent rather than buying the card(s). Nobody seems to want to trade Liliana away. The Memoricides (and the repeated casting of them) are pivotal for the deck as it stands.

Thanks for the feedback!

Good catch! That was supposed to be 6 Swamps and 6 Forests. Might think about making one of those Forests a mountain, just so I've got at least one basic land for each of my colors. I'm worried about having too many duals that require a basic to come into play untapped. I can ill afford to have my first three lands come into play tapped.

in that case i would: -1 dragonskull summit -2 forest; +1 mountain +2 ghostquarter/shimmering grotto

ghost quarter can help you with those pesky moorland hunts/kessig lands, aswell as function as a fetchland for you, that also trims your library...
