Information

This deck started as a mill deck which has slowly evolved into a feln variant with mill as a possible win condition. The general game plan is to use nightfall effects to cycle through your cards while your Deathcaps discard as much of your opponents deck as they can, while you use removal and small Vara to stay alive. Rejection and In Cold Blood serve as possible four-for-ones that also fuel your Solitude win condition.

Notable Matchups:

Rakano Aggro: If they get a good draw you will have trouble (as always), but you have the tools to deal with them. As a bonus, discard mechanics will often catch their units buffed by warcry and discard them before they are able to be played.

Jennev: This deck struggles with strong midrange decks that can play multiple large threats in a row. This seems to be the worst matchup.

The deck is really really funny to play with. But it lacks some interaction. Feln is not the best option for big sweepers like HR or EoS, so we need to rely on our few options. I think Eremot is a bit clunky because it's hard to get an empty board. So maybe reducing one Eremot, adding one more devastating seatback main deck or at the market (removing azindel, because it's really easy to deal with with a lot of bore, passage, disjunction and etc.). Vara and Jotun lacks synergy too, which is a bit frustrating. Rejection is a really good card but a bit expensive, so cutting one seems ok too.
Again, the concept and the deck itself is amazing. I am trying to make some* changes to improve it. Thank you for posting.

I'm glad to hear you're having fun with it!

Originally this deck was actually in blue-black-green, but meeting all the influence requirements ended up being difficult (as well as making In Cold Blood a bad idea). Hailstorm and Devestating Setback can usually work well enough for most circumstances. Sometimes its better to hold onto it until they merchant, though.

Eremot is a bit clunky, I agree, but he works well against certain control decks and temporal. I'm also not sure what you'd replace him with. I've been looking at Nametaker, but it's even clunkier, so probably not.

I'm not sure I agree with removing Azindel's Gift - the prevalence of relic hate due to Chains being a thing does mean its a lot weaker, but a lot of decks keep their relic hate in the market, so if they can't answer it on the spot you usually win.

Vara-Jotun antisynergy is unfortunate, The deck needs the draw though, and Jotun is the best card for the job. It doesn't bite me in the ass too often

If Mill wasn't a consideration I'd probably cut rejection and run either Unseal or Rindra's Choice. 4 mana is a lot of mana to try to keep open.

I appreciate the feedback. The things you brought up are definitely things I've considered.

You made me spend a whole day looking at my PC screen because I got addicted to the enemy player discarding cards effect hahaha
When two of these mushroom guys sits on the board, it feels so pleasant to use a sigil. hahaha

Not just giving me something fresh and funny to play with, you are a very polite person. Some people feel mad when others give their decks some feedbacks and in some cases I agree because there are some disrespectful feedback around. This community is in need of more players like you. Keep the good work and thanks again.

Oh, sure, I agree with everything you said in your reply.

I have tried this deck out and have found your iteration with several silver bullets to be the most effective so far. Love the deck man and am having a blast playing this take on feln control.

I'm glad you're enjoying it. Normally I'd feel bad for the people you're milling to death, but honestly if they're playing chains they deserve it. Have fun!

Yeah same here. Now I have gotten wins against a variety of decks, usually aggro with Vara's and lifesteal. Awesome deck an thanks for the write up
