This card is really good in a mill deck with a few mill cards before it.
i use a Eater of the Dead together with this to simply purge my opponents deck using his/hers own creatures

Not a bad investment in a token deck. People forget that even if you dont mill someone to death in one turn, you still just denied them a good part of their deck, milling is still obnoxious outside of dedicated mill. Not to mention you can tap out your creatures at any time for this effect and nobody can counter it. Ruin someone's scry or tutor effects or punish them whenever you block a creature. I'd put one of these in a token deck any day.

@ Kelrath I fully agree with you on the flavour. Masterfully done. As to the card's actual utility however... I am afraid I must refute you here. Creature dependent mill suffers from some problems as an archetype in general and the Koto exemplifies this issue. Mixing creature-win stratagems and mill-win stratagems is inefficient. Note I am not saying the likes of Hedron Crab or Nemesis of Reason are bad. I count them as "pure mill" cards. I.E cards (regardless of type. Artifact, creature, whatever) that exists solely to mill someone. One would not put Hedron Crab in a beatdown deck, for instance. The Koto relies on having a large amount of creatures on the field. Using it with a crab or two would be...less-than-effective. Now here's the kicker: token makers are not mill cards, such the aforementioned mycoloth. As a lover of saprolings, I can tell you Mycoloth can win the game if it sticks around a turn and it will do it w... (see all)
