Maybeboard


A pretty run-of-the-mill deck, if you catch my drift. I've done many self-mill decks but I'm relatively new to the mill game, so any suggestions and comments are welcome. Dimir and Oona are pretty obvious choices and the new Secret Lair gave me the final push I needed to actually build the deck.

Unfortunately dimir doesn't have many options when it comes to ramp, so we're mostly running mana rocks.

Arcane Signet, Dimir Signet, Sol Ring, and Talisman of Dominance are our mana rocks.

As far as land ramp goes, we're running a classic with Wayfarer's Bauble.

Finally, any black deck wouldn't be complete without Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth with Cabal Coffers and Crypt Ghast, which are a nice way to funnel mana into Oona's activated ability

Dimir has access to some really good removal. Black is second in board wipes and blue is number one in mass bounce. In this deck I chose to run Life's Finale: a built in selective mill effect is pretty good, especially with a Geth in play. Evacuation is a nice reset button, especially in a deck running so few creatures. Curse of the Swine is flexible, allowing you to pick and chose which targets you want to yeet.

As for targeted removal, we have Ravenform and Feed the Swarm. Since neither color are great at dealing with non-creature permanents, I chose effecient, more flexible removal spells. Drown in the Loch can also stand in as removal or a counterspell.

The tokens produced by Oona are not only great chump blockers, but they can be fuel for even more milling fun. Phenax, God of Deception turns them into little milling machines, while Altar of the Brood and Thieves' Guild Enforcer has them mill on entering. Undercity Informer and Altar of Dementia can sacrifice the tokens for even more mill.
