Maybeboard


This deck is $25 if you don't include the commander as of the typing of this sentence.

(If you want to make it truly under $25, take out Sphinx's Tutelage, and add in something from the Maybeboard.)

How this deck works:

Mill isn't the cheapest strategy, so it's not really the best in mono blue on a budget. But hug falls into the same boat, so we're just gonna throw both archetypes together and hope it works.

Sorry Sphinx's Tutelage, you are no longer the best mill enchantment for this... Psychic Corrosion is the new king of mill. (In terms of milling everyone at once, Sphinx's Tutelage is strictly better if you need to mill out one person)

All this deck does is ramp, hug, drops psychic-connection on someone and then hopefully one-shot mills everyone.

To ramp we have: Wayfarer's Bauble, Mind Stone, Star Compass, Worn Powerstone, Ur-Golem's Eye, Sisay's Ring, Hedron Archive, Dreamstone Hedron, and Unstable Obelisk. Also Blinkmoth Urn but I more consider that a hug card.

Then to facilitate card draw we have: Vision Skeins, Words of Wisdom, Dictate of Kruphix, Otherworld Atlas, Howling Golem, and Runed Servitor. It's nice that we don't actually worry too much on that front cuz our commander comes down T2 and hugs everyone.

Then we have some of the usual suspects for mill decks: Jace's Erasure, Drowned Secrets, Sphinx's Tutelage, and the All Star (and All Star jr): Psychic Corrosion and Dreamborn Muse. Both of them get out of hand really, really fast.

Game Winning Shit:

We only have one way really. Have someone enchanted with Psychic Possession, and have out Psychic Corrosion out. If we can pump 10 into Fascination, Prosperity, or Skyscribing it drops 50 cards from each opponent in one turn. Also to a lesser extent we have Temporal Cascade. With all the incremental card draw and mill up to that point, it hopefully is enough.

Everything else:

Now, I'm a realist. I don't believe that strat will work every time so there's ways to cover it, or just win by regular damage. We can try and slow everyone down with the Archetype of Imagination + Stormtide Leviathan lock. Just counter (7), mass bounce/exile/tap (6), or spot remove (3) everything til we can single target mill or kill with damage.

-Wait, we can kill with damage?-

Well, we can punish everyone for drawing so many cards with Psychosis Crawler, Black Vise, and Viseling to try and kill people the regular way. Then beatdown with Soramaro, First to Dream or Aeon Chronicler.

The damage route is A LOT more farfetched, but it should be possible.

Final Thoughts:

This deck seems like kind of a mess, and is only a deck I put together online. I haven't played it yet. I'll have more info on it once I sleeve it up. At the very least it's not a big financial investment, and it at least looks fun. Enjoy!
