Wolf hunters quiver. It has too high equipment cost.
Also leech bonder which can only be used trice one time.
Having 8 untap creatures is enough.

This gives you 6 cards.

You could use laboratory maniac + mesmeric though it would cost you in speed.
Don't know about the prices.

Muddle the mixture and perplex will not only find the combo, but will give you counterspells.

Hmm!
Infinite with thrasher means he can go mesmeric orb and that thassa's merfolkthingy that wins the game if he has 0 library. He has to be good at timing it though ;)

If he goes away from ping to self mill glint-nest Crane will speed up the combo.

He can also use cards with transmute to reinforce the odds of getting the combo pieces.

Muddle the mixture and perplexity springs to mind

Me too!

Splintertwin matters!

"No more" we cry, no more.

One format!
No bans!
No restrictions!
No more only 4 of each!

Back to magic as it was intented to be.

Formats used to be so simple.
Now we got format specific sets all over the place.

I hate that jumpstart isn't in modern. It's called modern because the cards were supposed to be designed in modern day, compared to the past.

The concept of pioneer is sort of the same. Take the newest of the newest.

It makes no sense not to include a new set.

I simply hate it...

Magic is fun, but formats are getting annoying...

I've got a death and taxes moon deck (how to: test at crush depth) that I use to train my manabase on for my mill-decks.
Perhaps you can have some ideas from it or can see an improvement.

So...

Why not stream of thought?
It will be gold with mission briefing, as it can reshuffle mission briefing and mission briefing can get it back, which means you got a loop going that enables you to replay just about everything.
I've mentioned that it's great as a killcard in a deck where your have infinite mana.

I wonder if there might be a doomsday combo with it.

Anyways, I'm currently playing it in my own speed-mill and have listed 8 reasons to play the card already.

You might adapt it too if you try it out long enough :)

If it's anything like your agrelemental deck it will be hard to split.

Could also be there are more readers in here that you would think ;)
We might not get upvotes or comments, but we get views.
I have made statements in the past before where it looks like someone reacted to them.

It might just be my paranoia, but I get stuff right frequently, and it's not unusual that a millcard gets printed that I'm the only one to exploit, because it seems to fit my mill, and my mill is usually unique.

I have a friend that says my brain is tuned in on the most unlikely reason for things.
I think he is right, which makes it an unlikely explanation on its own :)

When do you think your competitive halfdeck will hit the meta?
Any ideas on what sort of halves you will be building ?

Zmunkeyxz is back with uro-mill.
With a 22 place. Oddly with no changes in the list.

L.u.c.a

Last universal common ancestor.

I hope we learn enough about it's DNA to recreate it.

In a way were all just one gigantic organism that learned to split up into specified parts.

Perhaps we were originally an alien drone whose programming went wrong on earth for some reason.

No problems :)
Just don't put paperstrips down on valuable cards, over time it's like sandpapering them. Use something of no value

Seems like they are called king crabs.
Russian king crabs seem to thrive in cold areas only, but I turned to Google and found that Australia had their own private species of king crabs. Might be distant relatives :)

Then you could test all 4 cards at the same time by using paperstrips.
Take out the cards you want to test of their sleeves. Replace them with lands or rules cards that you don't mind get worn out.

Then cut out some paperstrips large enough to fill the sleeves.
Write all 4 cardnames down on each paperstrip then start playing. Each time you play one of these cards, you can play them as anything your want them to be, write a small sign close to the names you needed it to be.

If you play 10 times against each deck you should be able to see your total preference with ease. If you are able to play twenty times against each deck the results will be extremely accurate.

After the games you simply pick the cards that got the highest score individually.

I call it the paperstrip method and it works like a statistical computer. Search on the tag paperstrip for manuals on how to use this in advanced ways, and search for the tag evolutionbuilt to see some decks that were made 100% from this method. They are decks made by this statistical tool, not me. I may have given the method the cards to focus on, but it built the decks by itself.

Currently I've had it building two mill decks, with the tags speed-mill and ld-mill

Without this method I would never have learned how sweet chancellor of the spire is. My paperstrips always end up favouring it.
It is a secondary wincon on it's own.

Probably the Russian crab. Very invasive. Might reach denmark one day.
Or could have been a palm thief. Notorious for their land based lifestyle.

Can't beat that, but I have done crab-hunting in Ecuador. They were big, but not so big that I couldn't catch them with my hands. :)

I've seen such gatherings in film though where they stopped the traffic.
