I have a discard deck, and I love playing with Shriekhorn , of which I have two in the deck for. However, I would like to know if anyone knows of an artifact card that does something similar (it has to discard opponents' cards to the graveyard - exile will do as well), and that can also be regenerated - much like a Trigon of Infestation does.

Anybody got any ideas for me?

Discarding means moving a card from a player's hand to their graveyard (although it may end up somewhere else ).

Moving cards from a player's library to their graveyard has no official name in terms of the game rules, but most players refer to it as " milling ".

As for milling artifacts:

Millstone
Grindstone (particularly effective when paired with Painter's Servant )
Grinding Station (commonly used with Myr Retriever s)
Grindclock
Sands of Delirium
Ghoulcaller's Bell
Cellar Door

Those are the ones off the top of my head. I'm sure there's plenty more that I'm less familiar with.

Uh, this isn't discard. Discard is stuff like Mind Rot , what you're talking about is referred to as milling (named after Millstone ). As for repeatable milling artifacts, off the top of my head:
Millstone
Grindstone
Keening Stone
Thought Extractor
Codex Shredder
Sands of Delirium

That's all that comes to mind right now, you might have better luck checking the gatherer.

Okay, I didn't realise it was called milling, but hey, you learn something new every day.

Thanks for all the replies. I will try and get some of the ones I don't have. I like the idea of the Painter's Servant, it would go well in my Scarecrow Commander deck with Reaper King.

Painter's Servant is on the official Commander Banned List.

Sword of Body and Mind . With Bloodchief Ascension , it turns one of your dudes into Phage (for all intents and purposes).

Wow, I've just checked, you're right. Not that I disbelieved you, either. It's OK if I use it in Commander when I play casual with my mates, but I won't be able to use it in Tourney conditions.

I still want to get this card though. Regardless, I can put it in to one of my many decks I use.

Also, mill in EDH is usually The Mimeoplasm , so you can exploit the graveyard as well.
