Mill often connotes getting to the bottom of your opponents' libraries, but does that connotation keep us from looking at some of its other uses? Kyle guides a conversation with Andy into exploring a brief history of how mill came to be a part of the game and takes a look at the many ways decks and commander design are hooking into what mill can provide. Maybe next time you're up to other mechanical things with a deck, you can show off that you're into mill too, leaving your delighted friends to say, "Imagine that."
