The goal is to be rude as hell, using cards that steal, copy or mill the opponents cards.

WIN CONDITIONS

The usual win condition is just deal enough damage needed to win through stealing their cards and using them to attack their owners. Mill is not really required to win but in many situations can be used to secure victory. The mill is mostly there to buff certain creatures and cards. Aside from just getting rid of cards they have, mill benefits: Psychic Intrusion , Wrexial, the Risen Deep, Consuming Aberration, Dimir Doppelganger and more.

COMMANDER OPTIONS

While I find Dragonlord Silumgar to be one of the better commanders in one on one games, Lazav, Dimir Mastermind is a much stronger choice in group games when you can Traumatize and pick up an eldrazi. (not to mention Lazav also has hexproof) If you can't win by stealing cards, winning by mill becomes much easier when your commander is Szadek, Lord of Secrets , Phenax, God of Deception, or Mirko Vosk, Mind Drinker .

COMBOS

Hinder or Spell Crumple + Tunnel Vision = auto-mill

Vessel of Endless Rest + Tunnel Vision = auto-mill

Tunnel Vision + Telemin Performance = poor man's Bribery with bonus mill

Sadistic Sacrament on their lands in library + Big Mind Grind = Mill out

Dimir Doppelganger + Milled Ezdrazi Titan = Using Doppleganger's ability with the titan re-shuffle on the stack, you can exile the titan to prevent more graveyard shuffles from happening and have your own Eldrazi on your side of the field

Note that the Maybeboard consists of cards that I have either yet to acquire and need an opening for, or are cards that I am just unsure about.
