The Mindskinner - Control & Mill

💀 The Mindskinner – Mono-Blue Mill & Control Commander Deck (EDH, 100 Cards, Ready to Play!) 💀
Welcome to the mind maze. This Mono-Blue Commander deck features The Mindskinner as its terrifying centerpiece—a master of memory theft and mind unraveling. With a blend of mill, control, and clever tempo plays, this 100-card brew is perfect for players who love disrupting plans, denying resources, and watching opponents spiral into madness one card at a time.

🧠 Strategy Overview
The Mindskinner exiles opponents’ libraries one chunk at a time, gaining you free value and choking their options. This deck supports that plan with:
Relentless Mill: Drowned Secrets, Fraying Sanity, Teferi’s Tutelage, and Cut Your Losses snowball your mill engine fast—especially in multiplayer pods.
Control the Chaos: With counters like Didn't Say Please, Thought Collapse, and Aetherspouts, you hold the line while your opponents beg for mercy.
Steal Their Best Stuff: Cards like Diluvian Primordial, Reenact the Crime, and The Mindskinner itself turn their own decks against them.
Grind It Out: You’re not in a rush. With Midnight Clock, Brass Knuckles, and Psychic Spiral, you win the long game—over and over.
