Mill may not be competitive in EDH but it can be good fun. This is firmly a casual deck so many of the usual infinite combos have been purposely avoided.

Using Phenax, God of Deception to tap creatures for mill is obviously the deck's primary win condition. Minamo, School at Water's Edge and Pemmin's Aura provide untap effects to speed up this process. Guiltfeeder, Duskmantle Guildmage, and Bloodchief Ascension can all turn mill into life loss.

Bitter Ordeal and Sadistic Sacrament can remove key cards from an opponent's library before they become a threat, or take out as many lands as possible to set up a brutal Mind Grind.
