Strategy

The Mono Blue Mill deck in Modern is a control-based strategy that focuses on milling the opponent's deck, which means forcing the opponent to move cards from their library to their graveyard until they run out of cards and lose the game due to drawing from an empty library. The deck employs cards like Ruin Crab, Hedron Crab, and Archive Trap to mill the opponent's deck quickly. The good points of the deck include its ability to disrupt the opponent's game plan by forcing them to lose key cards from their library. It can be a strong matchup against certain combo or control decks that rely on specific cards to win. The deck also has some powerful mill cards like Fractured Sanity and Field of Ruin, which can help accelerate the milling process. However, the deck also has some weaknesses. It can struggle against aggressive decks that aim to win quickly before the mill strategy takes effect. Additionally, the deck can be vulnerable to graveyard hate cards like Leyline of the Void or Tormod's Crypt, which can disrupt the milling strategy by removing cards from the graveyard. Overall, the Mono Blue Mill deck can be a fun and unique deck to play in Modern, offering a different playstyle compared to traditional strategies. It requires careful sequencing and decision-making to effectively mill the opponent's deck while protecting your own resources.
