{"ops":[{"insert":"This is a Mill deck designed around forcing your opponents to deck out before they have a chance to build up enough of a board to swing out and trample over you.\n\nFor turns 1-3 you should be trying to ramp up to get 5-6 mana.

This is generally a two step process. first, mill everyone's library to half. then use an effect to dump the rest of their library in there. This can also be done passively but its better done as part of a combo. Mill cards are split into 2 categories: 50% Mill and Finisher mill. The 50% cards mill half a persons library, and the finisher mill causes them to mill cards equal to the amount of cards in their graveyard, thus killing them on their draw step unless they have an effect that prevents them from losing or lets them choose to not draw cards.

Theses too little creatures to block with so you'll often just eat damage. You'll also struggle against cards that shuffle graveyards back into libraries, more so if it triggers when they are milled. You will also need to tiptoe around graveyard decks as milling them is often a bad idea.\n\nUpgrades: I don't know many other upgrade options besides generally really strong (and expensive) black tutors and blue card draw.
