[[Oona's prowler]] can replace or support eye collector by moving creatures from hand to the graveyard.
[[Faerie macabre]] can also be considered.

There are actually a couple of tools on the web that can calculate the odds for you, but my own reason for knowing this, is that I both have a past in simulations and have designed countless mill decks where I wanted to hardcast archive trap.

Frank karsten has some old pages on the topic of mana.

I'd say you only need 26 lands in this, you have serum powder which can be used for mana.
You should be able to hit 5 mana reliably with just 26 lands, regardless of the powder, so 28 is too many.

Lol...

I traumatize the entire community for one troll, when back in 2013 there were hoardes of them...

One sign that you are interacting with a troll is usually that they have a low reputation.
Maybe that's why trolls downvotes others, to blend in.

The number of posts is also something to keep track of.

Few posts AND a low reputation means it's either a troll or someone new.

Go ahead and + me.
Half a year ago I went to war on the troll, making his life pretty difficult, but at the same time I had to be trollish myself, and was asked to stop it.
Ever since the troll has being down voting everything I say.

I do tend to be more busy than the troll so my reputation has been much lower, which means the troll is sort of giving up on pawning me. He must be realising how much time he is wasting on someone who doesn't bother.

Nah, more list of honorable but shy community pillars.

I myself is Danish, but my curiosity for languages keeps me skilled.

If you want skills too, the best way is to practice.

Write long and hard, and into the night, and one day you will find yourself to be as ancient and ornamental scribe, as I am. I live to have fun with wordplay.

There isn't many pro's in here either, so you will probably have to search a bit for people with skills.

My own focus is mill and creating communities.

I'm best at milling :)

Writ of Passage doesn't need to be cast, so over time you will probably feel 4 are too many. I'd say 3.

Split curiosity into 2 of those and 2 keen sense to protect against effects like surgical extraction.

There is a bunch, but they don't show often :)
One day I'll make a list :)

No problem :)

And I got to admit that lingering Souls, ob nixilis and settle the Wreckage does look swell together.
But, consider having both lingering Souls and glorious anthem :)

Elesh born is kinda hard to cast so it might become anthem instead.

Anthem could protect ob nixilis while it's small.

I could see vinylcraft use [[settle the Wreckage]] instead of wrath of god, which would be a good way not to kill abyssal gatekeeper until he is ready. Settle the Wreckage has some synergy with ob nixilis. If he attacks with some creatures and the opponent is going to kill or bounce them, he might as well prosper from it :)

He could replace honor of the pure with [[Glorious anthem]]
I think he intended it to boost mirran Crusader and elesh norn.

Welcome back othagiri,
This place is a mess at the moment, but many old faces are reappearing.

You should know that the place has become like Facebook, a lot of people put out a lot of stuff to be liked, but since they are the navel of the universe, they don't need to like the stuff of others.

Looking down your decklists I can see you are used to many likes, but these days likes are extremely rare.
Hitting three likes will be a reason for rejoice, and 10+ is a downright biblical miracle.

Just wanted you to know so you can be prepared for a different kind of place.

Theres also some troll who seems to attempt to fill up the "memory" of this place, he doesn't seem to know how it works these days, so he's basically fighting infinity, but he IS trying. Usually he uses several different accounts copying his own decks.

I agree with muktol.

Counterspells proliferate is a cool way of trying infect out.

Counterspells are an interesting way to deal with the meta, but will fail against BURN, due to the fact that they will be able to overwhelm you because most bolts cost 1 and the majority of your countering costs 2.
Past designs of infect have had 1 spellskite mainboard and 1 in sideboard to deal with that.

I'd like to see inkmoth nexus in the design as it's one of the hardest infect creatures to remove because it usually won't be "targetable" before you are ready to activate it.

Based on my long past with the game I'd say you could cut 2 of the ghost form, and the two cystbearer.

I'd also cut forced adaption and inexorable tide.

Consider [[keen sense]] or [[curiosity]] instead.

Also, if you encounter mill frequently, consider [[become immense]]

I'm a lot into the "numbers" of the game, but let's save that for another day...

There are two ways of copying decks :)
You either type in all the cards and their amounts, which is usually how a deck is created.
That process registers some views for some reason as if the system counts you as a viewer several times.

Then there is the "clone this deck" button which makes a copy of a deck, but does not create views.

Since you had the same deck posted twice and they had the same number of views, I assume you entered each card manually rather that just cloning your deck.

I've always enjoyed similar strategies.
If I were you, I'd get ingot chewer into the mainboard.
You don't need to cast it if there is no reason to do it, but since both dredge and workshop is your weakness you should have it mainboard just to have it.

If your opponent doesn't play moxen or stuff like that it will still be usefull.
You shouldn't have a problem in playing it for it's full castingcost, gaining a 3/3 at the cost of one of your own artisfacts as well.

Against dredge I believe bridge from below is still played ?
Evoke the chewer and lose an artifact to crack the bridge.

I guess if dredge still uses bridge, you could look through a list of all evoke creatures to find the one that would hurt yourself the least and dredge the most.

Not being familiar with the format I gotta ask, is there no reanimate/show and tell style of decks ?

I've started to link to that in my posts
:)

Giving people a voluntary choice seem to work better.
I've tried the idea of taking frequent contact with new people, but most of the time it turns out it's one of the trolls many accounts.

I believe if we can get people to link to each other, awareness will spread out in a different way.
