Posting again cause of exactly the same person as my original happily ever after deck hooray. Learn from me kids: block em the first time. Or, like, tapped out could make the ability to delete comments on decks.

Edited Breakdown and goal because Consuming Abby just wasn't quite doing it.

The Mill Cards

Breaking / Entering, Drowned Secrets, Fraying Sanity, and Tome Scour all exist in this deck for no reason other than to mill the opponent as quickly as possible.

Merfolk Secretkeeper and Overwhelmed Apprentice mill while providing bodies to throw between me and my opponent.

The Control Cards

Mill is slow. You're taking your opponent's life total and changing it from 20 to 57. So, the only thing to do if you're planning on sticking to mill is to slow them down as much as possible. That's where Drown in the Loch, Engulf the Shore, Censor and Thought Erasure come in. Keep the opponent from doing what little they can with most of their library in the graveyard, and /keep milling/.

Opt and Censor have the bonus of helping draw cards, which helps keep you from running out of gas. Just keep casting spells until your opponent is out of cards!

Thassa and Consuming Abby were proving to be the weakest cards in this deck, despite being my main goal previously. I’ve tweaked it to run a playset of Breaking / Entering and three Sphinx's Tutelage. Hopefully this will speed me up enough to keep up with the faster local meta.
