Traumatize and Fraying Sanity

Asked by 9-lives 4 years ago

If I cast Fraying Sanity, then Traumatize, would that mill their entire deck?

Without help from any other effects or events, yes, but only if their deck has an even number of cards in it.

If the deck has an even number of cards - say 2N where N is a whole number - then Traumatize will mill N of them and Fraying Sanity will mill the other N.

However, if the deck has an odd number - 2N + 1 - then Traumatize will mill N and Fraying Sanity will mill N, leaving 1 card left over. If you can make another card go into their graveyard before or after casting Traumatize then this will work the way you want it to.

WOAH!!!! This is the best mill strategy EVER! It doesn't matter if there's one card left; when the player draws it, game over.

Note that the player won’t lose from drawing that final card, it’s only when they draw from an empty library do they lose.
