Notes
 
DECK
====
The point of this deck is to combo [[Axebane Guardian]] and [[Galvanic Alchemist]].  Wall up until you have three other defenders in addition to [[Axebane Guardian]], giving you infinite mana.  This is not a new combo, but my twist on it is to then use [[Enter the Infinite]], providing me about as much card advantage as I could possibly want.  [[Tracker's Instincts]] and [[Forbidden Alchemy]] are in there so I can quickly get the cards I need from my deck.  [[Cackling Counterpart]] is there so I can efficiently copy whatever I need at the time, most likely [[Axebane Guardian]] or [[Galvanic Alchemist]], but copying a [[Fog Bank]] has helped during playtesting too.

Once [[Enter the Infinite]] is out, there are multiple win conditions.  The main one is [[Increasing Confusion]], which can be played from the hand (whole deck), or from the graveyard.  The next one is [[Sands of Delirium]].  Another one is [[Volcanic Geyser]], and finally, [[Doorkeeper]].  [[Doorkeeper]] is kind of a last resort win condition though since he would need to be paired with a [[Galvanic Alchemist]] like the [[Axebane Guardian]].  A nice thing is that even if I can't get infinite mana and [[Enter the Infinite]] out, I can do some nasty mills between [[Increasing Confusion]] and [[Sands of Delirium]], so that's  another potential win condition.

The title comes from nagging your opponent to mill their deck for a gazillion cards.

SIDEBOARD
=========
I haven't completed the sideboard yet, and am open to suggestions.  I thought about throwing in a few more [[Elixir of Immortality]].  [[Uncovered Clues]] might be a good replacement for [[Forbidden Alchemy]], but I dislike the fact that it is for instants/sorceries and also having to show the opponent the cards I pick.  I've also thought about [[Mizzium Skin]] as that could help against control/burn a lot, it's just tough for me to figure out what I would sub out.  [[Sheltering Word]] would be great against burn.
