Notes
 
This deck is going to be great, I got so many mill decks to try out with all these new tools. This is a dedicated land destruction archive trap deck. 8 cantripping LD spells that cantrip means that I'm blowing up lands all the time, running them out of basics, getting free archive traps and scheming symmetry, and finishing off with mind funeral or rolling terrain, either of which should be lethal. Cryptic command can be used as tempo LD, and looping caulties of war should be an entire KO. All the LD is basically unrestricted in this deck, and I'm going to super tax them for having few basics. I wish ashiok, dream render worked with these LD spells, it would be the perfect sideboard plan. I will be weak to graveyard hate, but I think I can figure out just playing through it.

There are basically too many cards for this shell. We have trophy and cryptic on top of the cantripping LD spells. We can play a four color version and try to fit it all in. We can play an Izzet version that uses the crab package and target our own lands to get additional triggers for crab. This version needs a lot of basics. All the cantripping is awesome, so any shell where I play all 8 is going to have a high volume hand.

There is also a Grixis Collected Conjuring version that plays hand disrupt and the usual packages.

And I just stumbled on broken deck #4. So you know what happens when you are looking at this package and find confounding conundrum? GG. First, 12 cantripping engine cards. Ok... Second, that text on conundrum is a humdinger. On it's own it makes it so our opponents can't play a fetch and pop it on their own turn without putting themselves behind on land. That's a pretty big deal. If they wait for our turn to crack, we can blow a land and still put them back a land. So fetchlands are a liability, a perfect compliment to archive trap. Further, if we have instant speed effects or double up on our turn, we force the issue. We literately can't loose against titan, that's just a buy. This is already a recipe to put our opponent on almost no lands. If you get multiples in play, they each trigger. So once that happens, our opponents are never going to get past 1 mana. We could play chalice and lock them, but that probably isn't even necessary. We can just loop archive traps for victory. What a world we live in. This is the king of midrange. Has difficulties against aggro.
