This Cephalid Illusionist card would be beneficial in a mill deck that aims to deplete the opponent's library quickly. However, for a more competitive option, Hedron Crab is a better choice as it consistently mills cards every time a land enters the battlefield. While Cephalid Illusionist has its niche uses, it may not see much play in more optimized decks due to its limited utility outside of specific strategies.
