Deck discussion for Wall of Phenax

This deck would be gross to play against. Maybe drop 2 walls and throw in some consuming aberrations. Consuming Ab is an exponential mill combo with Phenax.

Ex. lets just say you do some milling and play Consuming Ab as a 10/10. Tap him and Opponent mills 10. Next turn you tap him and opponent mills 20. then the turn after that 40, good game. 70 card mill in 3 turns. Thats not including your walls you may have on the field already, throw those into the mix and it could be game over in 2 turns.

It might be worth running 4 Consuming Aberration.

i was thinking about consuming swageration but he seems kinda awkwards, being that i want to pump out the walls then take like 2 turns to to mill it feels like his 5cmc kinda gets in the way, tho he stilll does combo very well with the phenax

I think play testing is gonna be the only real way to figure it out. I love the idea of Consuming Aberration, but I can't figure out if he is truly needed. Phanex and Jace might be all you need.

But then again, jace is a five drop as well and results in 10 mill every turn. By comparison, the Consuming Ab/ Phenax combo is faster. Maybe? Consuming Ab couldn't begin tapping until the fallowing turn while Jace gets to work right away.

Could focus on just getting walls out while instant and sorcery milling, then all at once tap all walls for a turn 7 win? Depending on the amount of walls.

Either way, Deck looks awesome man. If I pull some Phenax, I will probably make something like this for some kitchen table fun.
