I've been tinkering with Mill Rogue ever since Blackrock Mountain came out. Singlehandedly Gang Up has become my favorite card since. With the addition of Beneath the Grounds and Anub'arak in The Grand Tournament and Brann Bronzebeard in League of Explorers. What is Mill turning into? A Combo deck? or a Control deck?
It is a "mill deck" which is a fairly unique decktype. But if you really want to put it in a box, then it is more a control deck. All decks has cards that combo which each other, but "combo deck" refers to decks where the combo is the main or only win-condition.

this.
Mill is the slowest deck you can make.. sort of the most extreme logical conclusion to Control, just as Face is the exteme end of aggro. But since it's win condition is VERY differeent from control it gets its own deck type
The key is "How does this deck typically win?" Combo wins by gathering a specific combo that WILL win the game when assembled (I don't mean "very strong OMG I can't stop it." I mean "I play this and you explode"). Control wins by bleeding an opponent dry with board wipes and efficient cards, then finishing them off with forces they can no longer stop. Mill, in HS, wins by dragging you into fatigue so that you can't kill them before the fatigue damage kills you.
