First of all:
where is the point in posting a book that is more or less similar to a great book that has been posted only some days ago? There is no new input or thought you share with the community since you say it has the same strategies aa borgs. But I guess he could explain all the theorie ideas behind it that leads to his book and you are asking for it... I don't get it.
Sorry for those direct words here, reddice!

But your main question is a valid one.
Minds eye is a support card helping you in all aspects of range and positioning. You can be in range for all spells much easier.
So basicly it can help in all strategies that need quickcasts. Curses, enchantment buffs,  conjurations, attack spells undoing or positioning.  It will absolutely  help in board control. It will not help directly you in melee attacks.

Well I actually had made this deck before I saw borg's so no I wasn't just copying. I was really suprised the books are so similar. The openings are similar bc I really like monk crystal and vamp t2 seemed like a good play in most matchups.

I didn't say that you were copying, even if I can't understand how you build a book around a card for that you ask the forum how to use it.
What I was saying is that there is not much great value in sharing a book that is nearly the same as another. I also have a book that is very close to borgs and I would not post it for that reason.

P.S. I like that you are still talking to me  8)

The book has been improved/modified by now.
I'll make a new post about it and explain the card choices/changes.

I took your book and changed a few cards and must say I like it very much! It feels very different as my one that looked pretty similar.
(Out of my head:) For my feelings I mainly added some tools for those spores: a force wave, swell, lightning bolt(?), ignite...

I am highly interested in your changes!
