Decision Paralysis
Instant
Tap up to two target creatures. Those creatures don't untap during their controller's next untap step.

:facepalm: I knew I missed a cycle somewhere! Yeah, totally my fault that I skipped the Confluences. But in my defense, the article was already on the long side.
And yeah, no excuse at all for missing Decision Paralysis. None at all.

Typically fun and interesting read as ever berryjon.
I am firmly in the camp of loving 'modal' spells and am usually happy to 'overpay' mana for the privilege. Kicker seemed to me to be a great mechanic with so much design room especially in mixing colours. I'm not surprised it's found similar homes in disguise as other mechanics but it's a shame it hasn't come back just 'as is' yet.
I wanted to ask your thoughts on the Confluence Cycle and how you like that you can choose an option more than once? Fiery Confluence, Mystic Confluence, Righteous Confluence, Verdant Confluence, Wretched Confluence
...Also I feel like you could have linked Decision Paralysis for that last section too!

It looks like you've found all the playable mill cards in standard right now. Unfortunately, black doesn't have much to offer, so it might not be worth including. It provides some removal options, but since you only really need to slow down your opponent, blue will probably be good enough on its own.
I'm not sure how good counterspells will end up being. Things like Engulf the Shore will probably work better just because counterspells require you to leave mana unused "just in case" but you're going to want to play your mill cards.
If you want the deck legal in standard, Battle for Zendikar and Shadows Over Innistrad will be rotating out once Ixalan comes out. On the bright side, Ixalan features Fleet Swallower and Navigator's Ruin.
Some cards suggestions: Desert of the Mindful, Decision Paralysis, Galestrike, Imaginary Threats, Select for Inspection
