The body grows stronger under stress. The mind does not.

Mill

Hedron Crab and its new buddy Ruin Crab for one-drops that mill on landfall. Oboro, Palace in the Clouds for more landfall triggers.

Archive Trap for milling 13 cards when an opponent searches their library - Field of Ruin forces them to do so.

Fractured Sanity for milling 14 (also cycling in a pinch).

Tasha's Hideous Laughter for (exile) milling potentially a bunch of cards. A bit of a Nonbo with Visions of Beyond, but worth it.

Jace, the Perfected Mind for milling and drawing cards.

Surgical Extraction for removing problematic cards after they've been milled.

Other Spells

Spell Pierce for a counterspell.
