Cheza...red mill? okaaay...DonJonson...you have a 50% starting (decreases as the game goes on) chance of getting rid of thier elixer's. There's always a reason for traumatize.

I dont like to rely on mill too much as a win condition (doesn't feel right to me), but being able to sabotage my opponent's library like this in addition to countering spells and knocking cards out of their hands with black sorceries makes me feel good. At the end of the day I still want plenty of creatures in my deck, but with mill I can remove a significant number of threats -possibly even the biggest ones- and I can also use things like Rise From The Grave to snatch up a useful creature from my opponent. Haunting Echoes is also in the deck of course, so milling for the win is indeed possible and very fun on occasion.

4 of this, keening stone and haunting echoes, nemesis of reason and maybe some tutors to find them... milling is such a different way to play, I love it.
Another tactic, use this with living death or liliana Vess... oh yeah!

An awesome decking card. Ten years ago, this card was probably overpowered and overused. Now, with a lot of graveyard recursion options, this card is reasonable. Plus, Tarmogoyf/Knight of the Reliquary decks could use this card as a self-decking option to blow it up.

I feel like this card is helpful but that it's far better (and easier) to mill with other strategies. I keep one of these and some tutors around for huge decks or that odd point where I have too much mana, but frankly I've pulled off MASSIVE Brain Freezes and such by T4 with nothing but commons/uncommons. No need for this other than a safety or convenience.
In standard mill decks (maybe with creatures) I recommend 2 and only 2. Getting 2-3 of these in your hand is GG, but not for you...

This card has always been kind of awkward, since if you want to play this before all the Tome Scours because that's when the "one half" comes to the most cards. But if it weren't for this awkwardness (weakening straight mill decks), this probably would have frustrated many players.
