Mill is usually a slow, dedicated plan: a deck that trades early tempo for the promise of decking an opponent over a dozen turns. This bolts that clock onto a body that would rather be attacking anyway. A 6/4 Juggernaut pressures a life total on its own, and the attack trigger lops off half of whatever library remains each swing. The halving is a percentage, not a fixed amount, so the raw card counts taper: a big first bite, then progressively smaller ones, and no single attack finishes a full deck. That is the honest tension in the design. Against most opponents the six-power body ends the game the ordinary way before the library ever empties; the mill is less a win condition than a hedge, a second axis that punishes decks built to grind or gain life past a normal beatdown clock. The unearth cost is the other piece of the discipline. Returning it from the graveyard buys one more haste-enabled attack and its trigger, but the return exiles at end of turn, so each unearth is exactly one swing and no more. That single-use clause keeps a recurring 6/4 with a library-halving trigger from spiraling, and it turns the card into ammunition to be spent rather than a permanent to protect, asking you to stock the graveyard on purpose so there is fuel for a second bite. The two mechanics share the same attack step: the swing that threatens lethal is the same swing thinning the deck underneath it.
