The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.
A basic mill deck with typical mill mechanics, but adding a twist. To resolve the problem of underpopulated creature forces usually present in mill decks, I added defenders. With the effect of Doorkeeper, the defenders not only fend off attacks, but also assist in the milling process while remaining untapped
In beginning play, get defenders out quickly, while waiting to play creatures like Consuming Aberration and Jace's Phantasm( They are susceptible when your opponent has few cards in his/her graveyard). Other than that, play as you normally would, with caution towards your Doorkeepers. Don't under-utilize their ability, but don't tap them just to mill a few cards from a still-substantial library, especially when your opponent has an attacking force.

Personally I would focus more on milling than I would the defenders, also I would refine the deck a bit more as you have no fetch cards. Instead of having loads of single cards why not have x4 of particular cards such as Thought scour and Memory Sluice, Chronic flooding is good but only early game as you have 1 it almost seems pointless unless you get 4. http://www.mtgvault.com/belakor/decks/millage/ This is my mill deck check it out and see what you think and hopefully you might get a couple of ideas from it :)
thanks! About the thought scour(I am in no way degrading your comment. I really am curious). Why choose it over mind sculpt or other mill options? Although it does have you draw a card, it has little mill for for the price. Would it be more effective to add more card draw with other mill cards? Nice deck by the way.
Also, thanks for the tip-off on memory sluice. Such great card!
If your deck is cheap (1-3 mana max) drawing a card is invaluable as you will basically be guaranteed to be able to play whatever you draw that turn or next, it also helps get land down quicker, chuck Jace's Erasure in and each time you draw they mill, thats why I have 3 different ways of drawing cards in my mill deck, thought scour, temple bell and curiosity that I enchant to a hexproof unblockable so its guaranteed to do 1 damage and draw and mill
Very nice. I substituted a paranoid delusions for divination, but without compromising the effectiveness of my deck, there is not much else I can do fetch-wise. After I give it a few tries, I might be able to sub in some other cards. I am also trying to find room for a Painter's servant-grindstone combo.
