The power of heavy white aggro combined with some blue tricks.
--- end description ---
Mana Base:
Academy Ruins
Flagstones of Trokair
Azorious Chancery x 4
Calciform Pools x 4
Hallowed Fountain x 4
Plains x 3
Azorius Signet x 4
Blue- :
Screeching Sliver x 4
Traumatize x 4
Gigadrowse x 4
Remand x 4
White- :
Benalish Commander x 3
Field Marshall x 4
Revered Dead x 4
Honor Guard x 4
Mobilization x 3
To Arms x 4
Colorless:
Hivestone x 4
The point of the deck is to get a bunch of creatures out via Mobilization and Benalish Commander, then slap down a Hivestone and a Screeching Sliver. Your soldiers can become pretty buff with Field Marshall, but you try to hose them a couple times with Gigadrowse.
Once you grab a Traumatize, they lose half their deck. Tap all your creatures to make them discard a bunch of stuff, and then here’s the beauty of it. Slap down To Arms, untap them all, and repeat. Got another To Arms? Have another go!
One thing you may be asking is, where on earth is Howling Mine? The answer is...I just couldn’t work it in.  Oops. But if I can figure out what to cut from here, that’s the first thing going in. |

 Add the popcorn smiley to your sig, help it achieve world domination.
What if the hokey pokey really IS what its all about? 
As I lay in bed staring at the stars last night, I thought to myself, "where the heck is the ceiling?"

You need to work in, in order:
Gigadrowse x4
Wrath of God x4 (possibly, or Teleckinetic Sliver, you need more ways to stop aggros)
Condemn x4 (might be good to stop aggros)
Howling Mine x4
Calciform Pools x3 (at least)
Tolaria West x1
Adarkar Wastes x4
Twincast x2
Azorius Signet x4
Although I`d make it UB, to abuse Infernal Tutor and Glimpse the Unthinkable, as well as Extirpate. |

The way to stop aggro, of course, is to build my own aggro. This is a mill/aggro deck. Gigadrowse shuts down enough creatures so they can’t attack, and my first strike soldiers shut down their weak creatures so fast it ain’t even funny. Yeah, I know I need 4 Gigadrowse, but what do I cut?
Then you draw a To Arms and decide they get to lose a bunch of cards. Or a Gigadrowse.
Anyway, the reason I pack Cancel is to counter Wrath of God. Running it myself is somewhat counterproductive...I prefer Gigadrowse.
Or I’ll just cut the Gigadrowse altogether and go with Telekinetic Sliver?
What do you recommend I cut?
And Tolaria West? What? I run no 0-mana cards.
EDIT: Made a few changes. Any other ideas? |

Not really, I’m kinda stuck. I can’t think a milling deck revolving around creatures...  |
