Also, I prefer blue-black and enjoy difficult tactical challenges. (Personally I think da Rosa is underrating Cipher a little in limited, but in the evasion-heavy Gatecrash sealed environment he's right.) | |

(Consuming Aberration is the obvious bomb for a Dimir mill deck, but I can't tutor it, can't count on drawing it and can't protect it much against removal.) So: mill if I get lucky and have strong support, otherwise provide control support for an extort or flyer evolve deck. | |
