I feel that this painter's servant deck can be countered easily. Leyline of Sanctity, Extirpate, Cranial Extraction. Even normal discards cards would ruin it.

Lands have no color. Even if you assume a mono-color weenie deck with 20 lands, without any other effects supporting it, these are the most likely scenarios:

Land, Card, **** (mill 2)
Card, Land, **** (mill 2)
Card, Card, Land (mill 4)

average milled = 2.67 cards for 3 mana. Of course you can assume mana clumps so maybe it will be more like 3. 3 cards for 3 mana. Millstone = 2 cards for 2 mana. Same deal. Why on earth is this card $25? 3-turn kill combos like Painter's Servant -- OK, well then why is Painter's Servant $2? Availability?

I dunno, but I'm glad I sold my Grindstones for $25, and I would have happily traded them for things like Forces of Will or dual lands, LOL.

It tears up mono white decks, I would know.

I went against a mono-black once. By fifth turn I decked him with this. I thought he was going to come across the table and tear the card up. XD

Scalpelexis has an even more brutal effect, but the high casting cost on that card, and the fact that it has to deal combat damage to work, places it a step below this gem.

Sigh... Cheapest combo ever... This card had better cost five million dollars a piece or something.
