This is a modification of the Zendikar Rising Commander precon "Sneak Attack," led by Anowon, the Ruin Thief . A hybrid of rogue tribal and mill. At the moment, my goal for the deck is to start each game as a Rogue tribal deck with the typical tribal effects and anthems, but as the game progresses and Anowon enters the battlefield the deck shifts gears from the typical aggro deck to a heavy mill focus with lots of pieces that synergize with milling.

The deck doesn't run too many true combos, a lot of it is just wacky synergy with mill effects on top of mill effects on top of mill effects. Is Psychic Corrosion in play? Everyone mill 2 when I draw for turn, and another 4 from Ruin Crab and Altar of the Brood off my land for turn. Soaring Thought-Thief on the field? Everyone mills two cards when I declare attacks. Anowon, the Ruin Thief out? Everyone mills equal to the damage taken off of Anowon, and you'll all mill that many again from Mindcrank . Hit a creature with Anowon, I'll draw a card and everyone mills another 2. Whoops, forgot Kindred Discovery , I draw a card for each Rogue that ETBs and attacks, let me draw for attacks and you all mill 2 per draw. Also Bruvac the Grandiloquent is in play, so all those mill triggers are technically doubled... you can see how it gets out of hand if things go well for you, though the deck has a few definite combos:

• Duskmantle Guildmage + Mindcrank
• Bruvac the Grandiloquent + Maddening Cacophony

Still very much a WIP - any input (or support) is appreciated.
