strange mana peak... will see the game, where you have the time to wait for your Fleet swallowers.
How want to protect your Jace, Wielder of Mysteries? SPecial against flying is nothing.
And if he is dead, your selfmill before will be contraproductive....

If i will build a modern mill deck, i will use black and blue spells. Glimpse the Unthinkable is a must have, Mind Grind and/or Mind Funeral isn't so bad at a 60card-deck.
Think about using no creatures. Yes, at the one hand there is no one, who can protect you.
But on the other hand all removals at your opponent's side are useless.
I think, it would work if you play not against three or more opponents.
There are many counter spells, which also mills the opponent a little bit.
If you use no creatures, either you need 8 till 12 counterspells (Psychic Strike, Induce Paranoia) or the better way: use mass-removol (like "destroy all creatures") or better for beginng: cards, which say: each player sacrifaces a creature (there are another cards, which say "each opponent").
think the best option is, to use counter and removal.
Maybe you should bring something in like Propaganda or Meekstone or Embargo.
Use cheap mill enchantments like Fraying Sanity,  Memory Erosion.

there some mill lands too (not the best mill, but better than nothing): Duskmantle, House of Shadow and Nephalia Drownyard
Use colorless ramp like "sol ring" or a land ramp like "dimir aqueduct".

Maybe, if you want to use your jace with the win con you can use "Psychic Corrosion" or/and "Jace's Erasure" and draw a lot of cards and milling the same times the opponents.

Mill Decks has to be very fast to win...

Last advance: it's better not to use only mill spells.... "Windfall" is powerful to and mills the cards of the oppent's to. ("Whispering Madness" too)
You will not play it 4x times, because you want to play it, if you have only these last hand card and other player has more...or you want to recycle a hand with only lands and have enough at the board.
i prefer to add some cheap draw spells cmc<=2 to get my mill cards and the other needed cards fast.
if you want to do this, you can self mill you with these options to, but much faster...

should not wait to mill cards till phenax is on the board.

My deck is in the same price range like your's.


Maybe another option to mill is to use kess, the dessident mage and empty your creature slots.
the adventage is, that the creature removales of your oppenent's are mostly  useless at the deck, but it will be very difficult to win against three opponent's.
at this scenario you can use card's which mill 5 or 7 card's because you can play it twice.

plan  to  do something simulary.
Had a deck online ... here:
https://deckstats.net/decks/104826/1528123-2020-01-20-phenax-mill/de

You miss good mill cards like Traumatize .
Then you play mostly Walls, which not can attack.
I dont know what is your favourite play formate, but things like Steel Wall don't bring any effect to you.
Mill 4 cards ? really?

I think it would be better, if you copy  a creature from an opponent (Clone, Dimir Doppelganger etc)

With the Dimir Doppelganger (and other in my deck) you can use their creatures against them.
I think only to mill and to win is very difficult.
Try to found a good coexistenz between mill, steal things from other graveyards and things like wight of the precint sixt .

tree of perdetion is a must have to.
You have a defender with 13 toughness, can swap this to your life and mill a lot of cards.
together with illisionist's bracer's you can mill him 26 cards at a minimum

the  a endless combo with the bracer's and eater of the dead - can mill 8 cards.
Maybe there is one card between these 8 cards... if not, another players have graveyard's too.....

The difficulty will be to come into the midgame without losing to much live.
I will try todo this with some punishments when they attack me.
Propaganda,  dissipation field, curse of verbosity, Wall of Frost,  Wall of Tears.


Most of your walls has no good ability.
Your creatures has to bring you an advantage and i thin it will be better if you will not only use mill.

Many of the mill card's (instants, sorcerys) aren't very good at playing commander. Mill 4 cards? from 100? will never win this game at the right time.
Therefor i added to my deck many card draw options (and a little bit mill if i draw a card....)
Use multifunction cards where you can choice what you do.

Disrupt isn't a good counter at commander. Mostly your oppenent has this one mana.

Use something like disdainful strike or some counter, which use the mill strategy too, like didn't say please or other's like these

Fleet Swallow is a Traumatize as a creature. to protect him you should use your counter cards and to attack utility land's like rougue's passage.

you're instant's and sorceries aren't good at all.
nearly zero cards which helps your mill theme.
You shouldn't draw your deck earlier empty than your opponent's

Miss removal.
Read often that you should have 4-6 removal at a edh deck.

Maybe it helps.
Creatures is a little bit difficult with phenax.
Search for multi-useable creatures (with mana-abilities or other helpfull abilities like mill at enter the battlefield).
creatures which should attack for the effekt should have flying for easier attack.

and if you don't find anymore, then use creatures with high toughness.
The lifes longer and mill more...

Traumatize is in my Sideboard, but i'm not sure if it will work god.
Plan is to mill all opponents about the Codexshredder or Grindclock
In Combination with Illusionist's Bracers and the creatures to untap Permanents (and the tutor's)
the other Mill Mechanics are nice to have, but not the really target.
Maybe i will replace some cards for a little bit more card draw
