Damn gurl!
I wanted to make a mill deck but my inexperience led me to want to include green so I could ramp the heck out of it, so I found
Damia, Sage of Stone
. This EDH deck will provide constant annoyances as I will ALWAYS begin each upkeep with 7 cards in hand while milling opponents, sometimes all at the same time.

Win-cons and Fun-cons,
Altar of Dementia
+
Chasm Skulker
= mill + repopulate board with 1/1s which I can use for defense or re-mill
Altar of Dementia
+
Chasm Skulker
-> repopulate board with many 1/1s.
Poison-Tip Archer
+
Mindcrank
is on the field. Sacrifice the 1/1s to Altar again for more lolz.
Altar of Dementia
+
Traumatize
+
Consuming Aberration
Altar of Dementia
+
Consuming Aberration
(late game) can be a quick win. Do it multiple times with
Reanimate
,
Animate Dead
,
Noxious Revival
, and
Eternal Witness
Altar of Dementia
+
Rampaging Baloths
triggers
Altar of Dementia
+ responding to any discriminatory board wipes
Altar of Dementia
+
Vulturous Zombie
Fraying Sanity
+
Traumatize
= One dead player (if their deck is an even amount. If not they'll still have a single card library, LOL).
Mid to late game,
Damia, Sage of Stone
is allowing me to draw so many cards each upkeep that I can really abuse landfall triggers with
Rampaging Baloths
or
Roil Elemental
with
Burgeoning
in play.
Rampaging Baloths
or
Roil Elemental
with several fetch lands = V A L U E. Basically two lands will be hitting per turn and the triggering will double, ex:
Bloodstained Mire
,
Evolving Wilds
,
Flooded Strand
,
Marsh Flats
,
Misty Rainforest
,
Myriad Landscape
,
Polluted Delta
,
Scalding Tarn
,
Terramorphic Expanse
,
Verdant Catacombs
,
Windswept Heath
,
Wooded Foothills
. (Note, I can use all these fetch lands in EDH because they simply have the text of "plains" or "mountain," not the actual mana symbol.
After land(s) for turn are played I can be even more annoying and cause more triggers with
Cultivate
,
Kodama's Reach
,
Skyshroud Claim
,
Scapeshift
and
Tempt with Discovery
. With
Skyshroud Claim
I can look for any two forests which include
Bayou
,
Tropical Island
,
Breeding Pool
, and
Overgrown Tomb
. With
Scapeshift
I can search just for fetch lands, Ma-ma-ma-MAXIMUM VALUE!! I can also search my library for
Reliquary Tower
using
Scapeshift
since I'll be having so much card draw. In addition, if
Burgeoning
is on the field with a landfall d00d that means more 4/4 Beast tokens and more stolen creatures on my side of the field during an opponent's turn.

Altar of Dementia

Fraying Sanity
(starting to see the gears all working together yet?)
People may say this is "unoptimized," but even paying for a hard cast of
Rite of Replication
on
Consecrated Sphinx
with
Psychic Corrosion
,
Sphinx's Tutelage
, or
Fraying Sanity
in place is really going to screw with people's plans.
Tooth and Nail
or
Defense of the Heart
->
Roil Elemental
+
Rune-Scarred Demon
--> Any Fetch Land, play Fetch Land, gain control of dumb op creature opponent has, trigger Fetch Land, gain control of dumb op creature opponent has again +
Altar of Dementia
If
Rune-Scarred Demon
is dead for any reason I can replace him with
Eternal Witness
in the combo to grab a fetch land in main phase before playing land for turn.
Backup strat is
Tooth and Nail
or
Defense of the Heart
->
Surrak, the Hunt Caller
+
Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre
. Do this in first Main Phase. Go to combat. Ulamog is now hasted.
Recently added and tested for token decks,
Tooth and Nail
or
Defense of the Heart
->
Sheoldred, Whispering One
+
Massacre Wurm
. Massacre Wurm will mop up all baby tokens, dealing damage 2x to the amount of creatures destroyed to their owner, and Sheoldred will be out to ideally clean up the big general/token producer.
If there's any disruption of win-con I can use some sort of amalgamation of
Eternal Witness
,
Rune-Scarred Demon
,
Venser, Shaper Savant
,
Reanimate
,
Animate Dead
,
Mystical Tutor
,
Demonic Tutor
,
Grim Tutor
,
Vampiric Tutor
and
Noxious Revival
to try and fix things.

Any and all suggestions are welcome. First criticism I'll give myself is that I think that my creatures can be tinkered with a bit.
Thanks!
