this + Jace, the Mind Sculptor's add 2 ability = awesome. For 10 mana, you win the game (unless it was a land or he had some copies or something...).

Before there was Mind Funeral...
I reduced an opponent's deck to 12 cards.

Junktroller also works.

Haha this card is silly in EDH. Condemn attacking creature to bottom of library. Cast this. Game Over.

Use a card like Reito Lantern to put something under their library, then mill them down to 1 card ;P

Too expensive as a tutor card, not reliable for combos either.
Putting a card on the bottom does not ensure the milling unless you have skimmed your opponent's library for up to three other cards in his library with the same name.
Then again, a three-card-combo that includes this one with a converted cost of 6 is not worth the trouble, in my opinion.

This card would have been a lot more interesting for 3Blue, remember it even gives you card disadvantage since the card only goes on top, not directly into the hand.
That makes it more useful against your opponent, but as stated above it's not worth it since you either can bring up better combos instead or use single milling cards for less mana and a more efficient effect, e.g. Traumatize.

I would really like to see this banned in EDH. I'm sure there are a handful of cards that stop it from being an instant kill - most of which are just "shuffle your deck" cards, the majority of the time you just don't have them when it hits, and I think Coalition Victory is proof enough that EDH looks down on "counter this now or you lose" cards that take advantage of the format.
I mean, even if you AREN'T sure of their bottom card and trying to get an instant win, most decks these days are fairly predictable, to a degree - how hard is it to look at a general and name a staple card, and have the chance to mill anywhere from 6 to 60 cards(maybe even more or less if you're lucky)? Plus, you can Metagame like nobody's business, given that EDH is primarily intended to be kitchen-table casual, so even if you don't automatically call Sun Titan because their deck is white, you've probably seen their deck before and have a good idea of what else to guess. Know they're running an Eldrazi Titan t... (see all)

Just always choose Viashino Skeleton. If they're using it in their deck, you're probably going to win already.
