well, my thought would be more than one milling card, since it's a mill deck and all.

need black for glimpse, removal (last gasp, edict maybe, etc.) cranial sideboard even... but even with that said, this wont be competitive

Do you wanna play a league match w/ that? J/k .. BLACK is a must. Mono-U only works w/ 30 islands and 30 boomerangs.

I really dont see how this deck has a chance of winning a game.

You have nothing to stop a resolved creature, except for bouncing it. One you run out of counters and bounce, youre basically dead.

I understand what you're trying to accomplish here. It's really hard to make a draw-go deck in this format, I've made several attempts. Traumatize/Glimpse/Twincast/Muddle the Mixture is probably the best way to go about doing what you're trying to do. Maybe black for Last Gasp/Edict/Hideous Laughter. It's imperitive that the deck dosn't miss a land drop, so you have to play pick-up lands. Compulsive research sucks ass. I hate tapping out for it. Court Hussar is really good if you wanna play white, too. That's what you need is a shit-load of cantrips. Side in like Flash Counter and Remove Soul or Exhaustion. Maybe you can play Izzet Guildmage if you play red. I guarantee you'll never make this a tier-one deck, but if you know your deck and you're matchups and what you have to do against every deck, you yourself can win with it. Good luck.
