Notion Rain

Sorcery

Surveil 2, then draw two card. Notion Rain deals 2 damage 2 you. (To surveil 2, look at the top two cards of your library, then put any number of them into your graveyard and the rest on top of your library in any order.)

Hey Nina26. Good questions! I would definitely play the full playset of Thought Erasure and Discovery / Dispersal, which would probably mean getting rid of 3 Unexplained Disappearance, 2 Barrier of Bones, 1 Dazzling Lights, 1 Notion Rain, and 1 land. (Discovery makes it easy to fix mana early, so you can get by with 22 lands.) I would also consider substituting Sinister Sabotage for Clout of the Dominus, although that will partly depend on what you're playing against. I haven't tested Mission Briefing before, but I could definitely see playing at least two - maybe taking out the other two Barrier of Bones.

Hey man love the adjustments! I haven't seen Soul-Guide Lantern yet. That's a good card!

One thing I'd like to point out is that you don't have enough card draw. You have 4-5 reliable sources of card draw in the deck. And their reliability is questionable. Card Draw is the most important thing in your deck. It's the backbone of all EDH decks. You need at least 10 forms of draw and ramp each.

2 card draw spells that have to be included in a deck like this is Windfall and Whispering Madness . They're incredible in a mill deck. I know as a newer player, it feels bad sometimes to see a couple cards in your hand and then discard them away, but you've got to trust your deck building skills and trust that you'll get something good. They're great for if someone just tutored so you'll make them discard it, and also if you need an answer to something on the board and you need to dig pretty deep.

Other great draw options for this deck would be Read the Bones , Morbid Curiosity , Dig Through Time WOULD BE AMAZING, Rhystic Study if your budget allows it, Phyrexian Arena , Dire Undercurrents , Jace's Archivist , Notion Rain , Night's Whisper , and theres much much more to choose from.

troca opportunity por Precognitive Perception , shrine of the forsaken gods eh ruim, dispatch precisa de um deck mais focado em artefato, 19 eh pouco pra consistentemente ter 3 no campo, callous oppressor parece horrivel kkkk, painful truths nao funciona se voce jogar de graca do yennett, troca por um Read the Bones ou Notion Rain ou Dream Cache , o resto parece bem decente, mas vou falar um monte de carta impar que eu gosto: Burnished Hart , Thief of Sanity , Prognostic Sphinx , Scheming Symmetry , Acquire , Aether Gale , Wave of Reckoning eh especialmente bom pq nao mata yennett e mata o resto, Time Wipe , Plague Wind , Generous Gift , Mortify , Gilded Lotus , Imprisoned in the Moon , Mind's Dilation

Cards like Notion Rain , Jarad's Orders , and Final Parting are great with Muldrotha, putting select cards in your hand and bin. Merciless Executioner and Fleshbag Marauder are solid removal options that don't bend your mana curve too bad. Carnage Altar is another card draw/sac outlet.

Been thinking about building dralnu with doomsday as a wincon.
I've been wondering what you think about Notion Rain as it counts to 4 by itself.
Since LED is way out of my price range i was going for a Predict pile anyways but once i saw Notion Rain i thought to myself, i just need to crack the pile with any draw one or draw two.
Then cast Notion Rain , mill Laboratory Maniac with the surveil plus the any other card if we cracked the pile with a draw one, draw Gitaxian Probe and Unearth and cast those for the win.

I feel like you could swap some of your cards for ones that would just be easier to cast.

Fumigate is one more mana but is just better than Kaya's Wrath

Stitcher's Supplier and Stinkweed Imp are both low cmc creatures that provide some self mil.

Notion Rain is a good card that draws you cards and can put stuff in your graveyard. Taigam's Scheming could also be good since you get the option to put stuff in your yard.

Perpetual Timepiece is something that goes under the radar a lot and can be good for self mil and it can snag you back some of the cards you want.

More reanimation cards are Dread Return , Blood for Bones , and a slightly more expensive one is Animate Dead

Okay so thanks for commenting Fallerup Voltaire26 so in playing mill decks obviously there is a problem of cards with when something goes to grave put it back in library and exile is needed for that issue but what i tried to do is when i go off and they have those couple cards that wont go in grave in trying to make them draw those cards into there death with Jace's Archivist Windfall Jace Beleren Forced Fruition. Now i agree with potentually dropping jace for combo pieces with Tunnel Vision. I absolutely love the thought of Bitter Ordeal in this didnt know about that card. The sadist requires 3 black sources and until I nearly hit the full kicker price would i really have the three black. Im trying to play as many blue mana sources for the Freed from the Real or Pemmin's Aura combos along with most the spells needing blue. Though dont get me wrong i understand how powerful that exile would be and ill be thinking about it for a bit. As for the rain over discovery I play against artifacts so being able to make them return like a Mycosynth Lattice (if its the biggest like it is if he's rushing me) when he tries to Hurkyl's Recall is solid. if you look at the number of three drops i really want out on turn three Notion Rain would feel like a turn set back compaired to doing it for one less card and keeping 2 life on turn 2 that has less options to play for that turn. As for the Fleet Swallower i just have no idea where to put him
