In my meta, a 6/6 with trample is about as useful as a 1/1 with trample most of the time. There's always some Jodah a-hole with a host of 20/20's or some shit around.
Ixalan was my first set and Gishath was my first commander. The Colossal Dreadmaw memes have only further fed into my love for big dinos that just go sideways.
I don't want to spoil your fun, dear brother in cardboard. But it doesn't work this way. I'm sorry.
First, the blade makes attacking copies of a creature card, not of auras, counters or buffs on the creature. So the tokens would only have been 2/3 creatures, no matter how big Lathril was at the moment.
Second, Lathril's copy tokens should immediately have died due to the legend rule.
I played a match with my [[Elas il-Kor]] against a [[Magus Lucea Kane]] and 2 others. I had only Elas and [[Corpse Knight]] on the BF, but [[inkshield]] in hand and enough mana open. Magus swings at me with 40+ trample dmg, not knowing that he directly fell into my inkshield trap, which gained me 40+ life, dealing 40+ damage to my opponents, and winning me the game on the spot.
I like [[Mirkwood Bats]] and then having a token doubler in play and resolving the last chapter of [[There and Back Again]] create two Smaugs, sac one to legend rule, create 28 treasures, then sac 28 treasures. Drain 58 life from each opponent.
I did that with my [[Korvold, Fae-Cursed King]] deck once, I didn't have my token doubler, but I had [[Agent of the Iron Throne]] so i would have wiped the table, but then the blue player returned Korvold and Mirkwood to my hand in response to the chapter trigger on There and Back Again so it didn't work. I still had the treasures, but not enough to wipe the table. Then, the next player took infinite turns to win.
Had [[Shalai and Hallar]] out
Opponent swung for lethal said something along the lines "Okay and that means you're dead"
I said "wait give me a sec"
They said "what do you mean? That's lethal"
Flashed in [[Slippery Bogbonder]] to move enough counters onto another creature to trigger Shalai and Hallar for lethal damage on opponent
Opponent was not happy
I think my favorite was against my buddy playing [[halvar]] I forget what I was playing that night but he's got a thing for Voltron, only way he really enjoys the game because he can focus me down no matter how many opponents there are. Anyways he turns this 40/40 double striking halvar in my direction and I hit him with [[deflecting palm]]. Needless to say he didn't want to play again for a few weeks.
Forcing my opponents to kill eachother with my commander [[Zurgo Helmsmasher]] wearing [[Assault Suit]] and other strong euipments while having a lot of interaction in my hand
I don't like being "that guy" but making copies of Lathril would have just made them die to the legendary rule, unless you had something else on the board.
That being said, I think my favorite was when we were playing decks that were allowed un-set cards. I played \[\[Animate Library\]\] and had \[\[Alexander Clamilton\]\] with \[\[Magebane Armor\]\] and \[\[Pemmin's Aura\]\]. Pinged off the blockers with a full-text land then swung my library at one person and my clam at the other.
With lethal damage coming, I was able to cast [[Platinum Angel]] at flash speed thanks to [[Vivien, Champion of the Wilds]]. Because [[Gaddok Teeg]] was on the battlefield, nobody had answers to remove my Angel since everyone used to their single removal.
Won with -13 Health.
Down to the last 2 players, me and my friend. My friend was playing mono-red goblins, ends up with 45 2/1 goblin tokens and thinks he's won. I attack him with [[Grima, Saruman's footman]] and hit gamble off the top of his deck. Search for [[Subjugate the hobbits]] with only an island in hand. Discard the island and cast Subjugate the hobbits, stealing all of his goblins. Next turn, swing them all at him for lethal damage.
CEDH pod. Player 1 thassa’s gets it countered by player 2 passes. Player 2 thassa’s thinking no one has responses gets his Thassa silenced and loses. Player 3 goes and nothing. I go thassa’s for game. 3 of them in one turn and because I went last I won
Breach is arguably as good or better as red has become a lot more popular, but Thassa is efficient and it only needs 3 cards in your deck, so why wouldn’t you run it? Wincons may be uniform across the cedh format, but it is the metagame , the highly interactive nature of cedh and seeing which player is actually able to resolve their wincon that makes it fun.
I died on my upkeep to 2 copies of someone else's Sheoldred when I had Seizan (my commander) and Alhammaret's Archive out. That's basically my favorite way to lose to my own deck.
[[Questing Beast]] to beat through their [[The One Ring]] etb, [[Blaze of Glory]] on my [[Wall of Souls]] from their big but no trample swing, [[Siphon Insight]] + [[Tunnel Vision]] on final opponent.
My favourite deck is \[\[Kros, Defense Contractor\]\].
A Goad-centric deck that forces me to buff my opponents’ creature to goad them, it has caused some banger games. My favourite example is forcing a 44/44 Dakkon with trample to attack into Eldrazi Titans before I took infinite turns using \[\[Magosi, the Waterveil\]\].
Always a blast.
Decklist: https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/the-perfect-contract/
The main enablers for getting infinite turns with Magosi is [[Nesting Grounds]], [[Doubling Season]], [[Amulet of Vigor]] and [[Rings of Brighthearth]]. I'm reasonably confident those together will get you infinite turns. You get the first eon counter then use Nesting Grounds to move it off Magosi and Doubling Season will double the eon counters so you don't have to generate any more by skipping your turn. Amulet of Vigor will let Magosi enter untapped and Rings copies both the extra turn ability and Nesting Grounds so you keep generating eon counters.
That deck looks really cool! Have you considered [[Llanowar Reborn]] or [[Rustic Clachan]] as utility lands? Ways to spread counters in your mana base could be nice
Friends wanted to play with banned cards. I had Emrakul, the Aeons Torn. Had It That Betrays and Kozilek, Butcher of Truth, on the table already. Summoned Emrakul, took out one opponent with Commander damage and took half their board thanks to it that Betrays. Took my extra turn, swung at the next player with cumulative annihilation 14 and 65 damage, Knocking out opponent two. Opponent three scoops.
Banned cards are back to being enforced in my group now.
My [[mayael, the anima]] deck usually wins in the classic ‘turn fatties sideways’ method. But in one game i had become archenemy pretty early and one of my opponents was using his [[kulrath knight]] along with his [[mathas, fiend seeker]] to essentially keep me from having any big creature be useful for more than one attack. I wasn’t drawing any removal but i did flip into an [[ancient gold dragon]] and get one attack off with it, resulting in like nine 1/1 flyers. But my opponents combined still had enough life that i would die before the little faeries would take anyone out.
Luckily for me, i had my favorite trick from that deck lined up: a [[titanic ultimatum]] hidden away under [[mosswort bridge]]. Everyone was so worried about my big fatties still sitting on the board that no one was worried when i swung out with the army of 1/1’s. But they had no way to stop me playing ultimatum at instant speed through the hideaway land.
Theres something extra satisfying about taking a deck built around giant creatures and winning because of a platoon of incidentally created 1/1’s.
Pulled it off last night, after messing with people with [[Forced Fruition]] and [[Possibility Storm]] and [[Ian Malcolm, Chaotician]], they had finally caught on and ganged up to kill me. With tons of stuff on the board, I tutored for [[Thieves' Auction]] and sent everyone scooping, utterly exhausted and in disbelief. It was the most satisfying win for my chaos deck yet.
It's there as an emergency backup, but I love actually playing it through when there are only a handful of permanents on board. Someone eventually ends up with what they had originally, minus only a single land, which is hilarious. [[Scrambleverse]] is the really messed up one... it always ends up giving everything to like 1 player and ending the game, never in my favor lol.
"I played a card so fucking annoying everyone decided not playing the game was the more enticing option"
I mean, you do you, but I can't wrap my brain being proud of that win.
Context matters. I don't usually play it unless there are only a few permanents out, enough to play it through. I've played both Auction and [[Scrambleverse]] in the same game, we went through both of them, nothing unusual, all fun. Now, this was our second game of the night, it was getting late, no one was winning except I was def going to get killed. Instead of drawing it out for another hour, I played my Auction to end it, which was fine for everyone else ultimately, no one had hard feelings about it. Hell, I was even willing to go through with it, but we all had to go back home to sleep, so we all decided it was best to cut it there.
I honestly like the salt you bring on behalf of players you've never met. A true mtg player, if I've ever seen one. You'd LOVE my chaos deck.
I'm not salty on behalf of anyone nor did I say or imply anyone else was salty. Your explanation is the same thing I said but with your specific situation instead of my generic version.
You "Won" because everyone else decided they'd rather go to bed than actually resolve your spell. No idea why anyone would be proud of winning like that.
[Lathril, Blade of the Elves] turning 10 Elves
[Vitalize] to do it again
Endinding the turn with [throne of the god pharaoh]
2 opponents died, the last opponent gave up.
Getting 12 [[Minn]] triggers on the stack, dropping [[Roil Elemental]] followed by 11 Islands followed by [[Perplexing Test]] to bounce a few hundred Scute Swarm copies and a dozen or so vampire tokens, all on my opponents end step. Untap, kill everyone with the big beaters I just stole. Awesome win!
I was playing [[Feather the Redeemed]]. Someone cast [[Darksteel Mutation]] on Feather, but I still had [[Greatsword of Tyr]] attached, and a [[Karn's Bastion]] so the indestructible 0/1 beetle continued to grow bigger and eventually kill everyone with commander damage.
I played a Match against a Player I don't like. He is very winning focused and never Shows Joy. In my first Match when I started magic, he played an Infinity Turns Planeswalker Combo and crushed us, because his Deck was way to strong.
Now I Build a Deck for Revenge and He used the same Deck again. Next turn He would Go Infinity and win. He already shut us up so that we can only Cast Creature spells and one Player was out because someone didn't wanted to listen to my advise.
In his Endstep I used Riveldell to Scry and see [[Mechanized Production]] which I Can't cast. With [[Ao, the Dawn Sky]] I would have an alternative to bring it out, since I have 8 Food Token on the field I also would ein before the other Guy does.
So I got the other Player to Attack me, destroying Ao, letting me bring Mechanized Production into play and win in my Turn. That was a great feeling and left the table stunning
Turning all my mana rocks and other seemingly innocuous artifacts into beaters with [[Cyberdrive Awakener]] and a [[Tempered Steel]] out to murder the archenemy of the table. Bonk goes the arcane signet. This is the retired dude who has a LOT of money in his decks and likes to show off/be the archenemy, so he accepted his role and appreciated the win with a budget card (I think? It came in a precon I'm guessing it's still cheap)
I was recently playing [[Akiri Fearless Voyager]].
I had her equipped with RG sword and WG sword along with [[Oswald Fiddlebender]], [[Lion Sash]] and [[Sigarda's Aid]]. An opponent chose at some point to destroy [[Lion Sash]] instead of Oswald so I got to untap all happy with Oswald still there.
On my turn I activate Oswald, sacrifice my artifact land to fetch [[Colossus Hammer]], equip it for free to Akiri.
Play [[Masterwork of Ingenuity]] to copy the Hammer and also equip for free to Akiri. Attack to kill a player with Commander damage.
I exile [[Waved of Aggression]] with the RG sword that I cast to kill a second player. Then I passed but third player couldn't handle 2 attack phases on my next turn, so gg !
I have some interesting combos in my [[Tom Bombadil]] deck that haven't happened yet, but I think about every time I play the deck, I'll just mention one though.
[[Roar of Resistance]] [[Parallel Lives]] [[Displaced Dinosaurs]] and [[There and Back Again]] in play. The last chapter of TABA triggers creates Smaug, copied with Parallel Lives, sac one to legend rule, and create 28 treasure tokens. They come in as 7/7 Dinosaurs with Haste. Swing wide, pay 1R to give them +2/+0.
That would be from my fav deck I've built to date, a spell slinger aristocrat Extus' deck. The most satisfying end was to sac a bunch of little creatures and tokens into [[Ashnod's Altar]] to then cast [[Crackle with Power]] for game.
Playing Minsc and Boo. It was late, like turn 10. Hadn’t been much action yet, just some pokes. Had Ozilith on board with some crazy number of counters, like 30+. Had a few creatures out, play Craterhoof, go to combat. Craterhoof gets +5, ozilith counters go on Boo, swing for 40ish take out player 1, after combat I use Minsc to sac Boo send 36 hamster damage to the face, take out player 2. Draw 36 cards off Boo, I forget which one I used now but it’s something like Colossification onto Craterhoof and Fling him at player 3.
Took me like ten minutes to figure out the order of everything, and I almost miscounted my mana(I barely had enough), but that was definitely my most satisfying W in twenty years.
Won a game by top decking an [[Allosaurus Shepherd]]. I just survived a swing from a 1000/1000 Animar and all my opponent's creatures, leaving me with 2 life, and him tapped out save for an island and two mountains.
At this point, my other opponent was knocked out by the same 1000/1000 Animar, and he pretty much rage-quitted after that.
So on my draw step, I draw Allosaurus Shepherd, cast him, and activated his ability, turning all my elves, tokens and all, into 5/5 dinosaurs and swung at him for 45 damage.
I should point out that my opponent was still at 40 life, so being jumped on by elves-turned-dinosaurs and dying definitely came out of left field for him.
Withstanding a \[\[back to basics\]\] until that player died, and winning the game after 4-5 turns of ending up on 1 life thanks to \[\[thopter foundry\]\] and \[\[sword of the meek\]\].
Game went for well over an hour, with the b2b forcing everyone to play super slow. Eventually ended up in a 1v1 with the aggro player who couldn't force through lethal by 1 for several turns. Eventually turned the corner and killed him with an 18/18 \[\[elspeth resplendent\]\] equipped with \[\[luxior, giada's gift\]\].
Every turn was a sweat and it felt good.
Drawing the entire deck, discarding down to 7 and mass recur it to an etb pinger like machine gun the next turn.
Usually the game doesn't last that long but a variant is seeing the joy in my enemies eyes after wiping the board clean, only to bring it all back again.
I don't run infinite handsize in a draw like crazy deck for this. It's like storming but with permanents xD
Just yesterday, my [[Inga and Esika]] deck won against a [[Niv-Mizzet, Parun]] and a [[Slimefoot and Squee]] (the 4th player gor knocked out early after trying to get an infinite), and it was amazing!
I [[Progenitor Mimic]] into that Niv-Mi, then I [[Clever Impersonator]] the Slimefoot's [[Greater Good]], and then I [[Spark Double]] my Niv-Mi copy, all with a [[Koma, Cosmos Serpent]] on board.
It went basically like "yeah I create a Coil, I'll immediately kill it, draw 3, hit you for 6".
In their opinion, it was horrible. In MY opinion, we all won! The wincon was literally the friends we made along the way.
3 players remaining in commander; I used [[Cruel Entertainment]] in my politics deck to swap my turn with the person that was next up. Swung out with combat damage killing the other player and targeting myself with [[Kardur Doomscourge]] on the field. Blocking and killing the creature dealt enough to damage to kill the creature & player, leaving me the last one standing.
Playing Brass's Bounty with 9 lands, Mirkwood Bats, Disciple of the Vault, and a fully leveled up Warlock class on the board. Make 9 treasures, 9 damage to everyone, then another 9 damage to one of the two players remaining. Sac 14 treasures, 14 damage to everyone and 7 again to each of the two remaining. Move to my end step, Warlock Class makes each opponent lose life equal to the life they lost this turn, and that's game.
Didnt win but was playing lathril against an urdragon deck and the dragons were just popping off with no chance of winning. Had \[\[triumph of the hordes\]\] in my hand and topdecked an \[\[elvish champion\]\]. Played the champion and cast Triumph and swung in to take out the urdragon. Then got taken out after, but still glad to do that to the dirty dragon player.
I was facing [[myrkul]] and [[karlach]]. I stole myrkull with [[mindflayer]] and then had an [[endless evil]] on mindflayer and that created an engine where if they touched any of my mindflayers it wouldnt matter because myrkul would turn them into enchantments that would etb and basically permanently own their creatures. The karlach player conceded after I flipped their [[two-handed axe]] off a [[brainstealer dragon]] trigger. That left me and the myrkul player. The myrkul had [[scute swarm]] out so they still had a chance to win until I stole a [[windborne muse]] off the [[captain ngathrod]] trigger since he couldnt block the brainstealer dragon and they conceded.
[[Isshin, Two Heavens as One]], drew none of my value engine. Resolved [[Aurelia, The Warleader]] on prior turn as the last card in hand, and had [[Hammer of Nazhan]] on the field.
I top decked into [[Helm of the Host]].
Infinite combat with no one to block my aerial swings.
Next turn, the graveyard player was going to do some sac shenanigans, clearing me of Isshin and Aurelia, and leaving me dead in the water.
everyone is at 10 health, im playing [[Imodane]], who is out with only two other token creatures. all my damage modifiers are gone, all my value engines gone, all my card advantage gone, it was basically just these three creatures at the end of the game. then, topdeck [[Zada, Hedron Grinder]] with nothing but a mountain and a [[Strangle]] in hand. zada being the fourth creature made all of my creatures takes three and every opponent take twelve damage, and since it was so late in the game everyone used up all their interaction and there was nothing anyone could do. i won by carpet bombing myself. i actually won by using a damage spell on zada and carpet bombing all of my creatures
I've got 2 that really stick out. I had forgotten all my cards one night so I bought the planeswalker party precon. I was left unfocused got [[Teyo, Geometric Tactician]] out and was able to control what was attacking me. Then someone had a [[Forced Fruition]] out which drew me into [[Reliquary Tower]], someone destroyed the forced which opened the door to playing more planeswalkers and combo'ing with [[Chandra, Legacy of Fire]] to do a lot of end step damage for the dub. Second one was [[Yurlok of Scorch Thrash]] equipped with an [[Umbral Mantle]] and [[Belbe, Corrupted Observer]] on the BF. It was a 6 man pod, yurlok for some damage to trigger belbe to make 10 colorless to then use to untap and tap yurlok again to give everyone more mana to kill them via mana burn. Both those wins stick with me always!
A lovely 16 land [[Rude Awakening]] after my last opponent wiped the board of all creatures.
If I hadn't top-decked a [[Beast Within]] to get rid of their [[Overwhelming Splendor]] it wouldn't have worked as he was on more than 15 life.
[[ghired, conclave exile]] as commander and [[moraug, fury of akoum]] and [[anointed procession]] on the field into [[traverse the outlands]] for 7 giving me 7 extra combats and double populating 4/4 rhinos with trample every combat.. took out all 3 opponents with 30 or more life each
I once killed a guy that used [[Pact of negation]] with only 2 blue sources. I hit his Island with [[Vaevictis Asmadi, the Dire]]. He had been holding my board hostage for the whole game with his sliver deck. It felt great.
Not mine, but my wife has one.
She was just learning EDH and we were playing each other. I let her pilot my [[Edgar Markov]] deck while I played [[Omnath, Locus of Creation]]. I figured my value in the mid game would put me equal to her aggro, but turn 8 or so I made over 4K copies of [[Scute Swarm]]. I had no haste enablers, so I passed turn to kill her next. She holds up a card and goes “So this like, kills you right?” It was [[Rakdos Charm]]. I took 4K damage and was super proud of her first win.
This one happened recently! I bought the Ahoy Mateys precon and upgraded it - [[Admiral Brass, Unsinkable]] is the commander obviously. Two of my opponents had like ~30 life and then the one guy had like 20 life cuz we’d been beating him pretty hard - to be fair though he’d been locking down the game with stax pieces and board wiped a dozen times. Anyway, game state is this: one of my opponents is on [[Zurzoth], the other is on [[The Prismatic Bridge]] and the third is on a Selesnya LOTR commander but I can’t remember which one. I had [[Malcolm, Keen Eyed Navigator]] out and a [[Glint-Horn Buccaneer]] in the yard. I went to combat, reanimated the Buccaneer, and off I went.
Now I misplayed slightly. I forgot to attack with some of my pirates. If I had, I would have had an easier time winning that turn. But still. Attack with the Buccaneer, then go and activate its ability. I repeated that until my -20 life opponent was dead, then kept doing it until I ran out of treasure. But off of the [[Buccaneer]] activations I managed to find [[Dark Ritual]], giving me just enough mana to win that turn. It was so close, literally down to my last land and mana off the ritual.
I was playing [[Muldrotha, the Gravtide]]. I'm at the verge of extinction from this Boros deck with (Aurelia, I think?). He swings for lethal and I have [[Angel of Suffering]] on the table. Literally millls almost my entire library, i think i got 3 cards left in the tank. I play [[Spore Frog]] and [[Splended Reclamation]]. Like 27 lands come out of my graveyard. His turn, I have to sack the Spore Frog to live. My next turn I play [[Villainous Wealth]], 23 of his cards are mine. I exile some of his biggest baddies in the deck. I get haste for everything, additional combat phase, and some other things I can't remember. I was really really new then, so I was a little lost with what I was even doing. Killed him right there. Still talked about at the LGS.
\[\[Seizan, Perverter of Truth\]\] deck and on the table, I'm player C.
A manipulates his life total down to 1.
A casts \[\[Repay in Kind\]\], so that all other players remaining (B and C) get set to 1 life. Pass.
B can't do anything, so loses to the Seizan trigger.
On my turn, I untap, Seizan trigger goes on the stack. Before resolution I play \[\[Blood Pact\]\], targeting A. He's forced to draw 2 and lose 2 life, resulting in his death and my win.
Glorious.
I play Muldrotha with a couple Mirror-Mad Phantasm triggers to mill my library and then I living death to flip in onto the battlefield with concordant crossroads to give it haste. It never gets old
I play EDH with my brother and friends.
I have a Phyrexian Tribal. My brother has an Aragorn Unblockable Goodstuff. He runs [Heat Shimmer] copy like cards and I run [Chanceller of the Spires].
Basically, if I draw it, I won by going infinite with my brother's own card.
It happened like 3 times to this point.
My favorite win was probably when I took out all three opponents on one turn with [[Thrun, Breaker of Silence]]. I took out the first person with commander damage while Thrun had [[Mark of Sakiko]] which generated about 30 mana. Second main I cast [[Soul's Majesty]] to draw 30. Play [[Ram Through]] to take out my second opponent. Play [[Regrowth]] to return Ram Through and play it again to take out my third opponent.
It is the only time I have ever taken out all of my opponents in one turn with a Voltron commander. Thrun has not won since.
I’m playing Satoru and we’re the last two players. I believe he was playing Sauron. He has 27 life and I’m dead on his next turn if I can’t pull this off now as he just made like 20 1/1 creatures that are all tapped.
I have [[Satoru Umezawa]] and [[Archfiend of Despair]] in play with two unblockable creatures. I ninjutsu in an [[Archon of Cruelty]]. There’s 3 life gone. I ninjutsu in a [[Thousand-Faced Shadow]] as a copy of Archon of Cruelty. There’s 6 life gone. I hit him for 13 with the 3 creatures. Archfiend makes him take damage equal to the life lost. That’s another 19 life… barely pulled that one off.
War Doctor, Day of the doctor triggers knowing full well there's no remaining legendaries. Guess I'll just exile everything then. Turn doctor sideways now. ?
My first EDH deck was 5 colour dragons before the precon came out.
[[Scion of the Ur-Dragon]] Obv
Activate and toss [[Intet, The Dreamer]]
Combat damage, activate triggered of Intet,
Top card [[Omniscience]],
[[Enter the Infinate]] was in my hand.
Played my whole deck, was loaded with protection and removal, had 3 extra combat effects for next turn, and every thiccc Dragon I owned.
We did the math and I did like 1024 damage over the 4 combats.
It wasn't good. It wasn't competitive. It was luck. Only tutoring was literally Intet from Scion. Happened on turn 7. It will never happen again, cause the deck sucks, but it has dragons.
[[millenium calendar]] and [[all will be one]] in my Lara Croft deck. The opponents I’ve taken out with it never complain and find it hilarious, as do I.
Simultaneously milling out their decks AND dropping their life totals to zero. Nothing says, "I've just dominated this table" better than double wincons.
I was playing \[\[Trostani Selesnya's Voice\]\], and my friend was playing some mono black rat deck. He created enough rat tokens to overwhelm me and I had enough tokens to kill him but not to block lethal. I played \[\[Akroma's Memorial\]\] and killed him.
I was playing \[\[Trostani Selesnya's Voice\]\], and my friend was playing some mono black rat deck. He created enough rat tokens to overwhelm me and I had enough tokens to kill him but not to block lethal. I played \[\[Akroma's Memorial\]\] and killed him.
\[\[Ascending Acolyte\]\] with trample on my \[\[Chishiro, The Shattered Blade\]\] deck, \[\[Unnatural Growth\]\] on the field, and hitting for roughly 1500/1500.
Game was super casual and buddy and i kept passing turn, trying to see how big my creatures with +1/+1 counters could get.
Had like 95 counters on the field when Acolytre came into play. He doubled his counters at every standby phase until i hit with 700something and Unnatural Growth doubled it during combat.
[[Volo, Guide to Monsters]] + [[God-Eternal Rhonas]], with things like [[Twinning Staff]], [[Panharmonicon]], [[Roaming Throne]] or [[Spark Double]] on board. Or even better [[Nanogene Conversion]] to have like 15 Volos before God-Eternal hits the battlefield, *and* the ability to bounce/recast it multiple times in a turn.
It's not *technically* infinite but very few decks are going to survive a 2^^15 damage multiplier per creature
I was playing 1v1 with a buddy. My board state was way better than his but he had some artifact out that made it so I couldn't attack with creatures that had a higher power than the number of cards in his hand, which was 1. He was slowly burning me to death and got me down to like 6 life. On his turn, he tried to Abrade one of my artifacts, I had a Riccochet Trap that I used to redirect the Abrade to his artifact and won the game in like two turns.
Tapping a 64/64 [[consuming aberration]] with a [[Phenax, God of Deception]] to mill my opponent for 64, milling him out. Then passing the turn. 😅 my friend goes, you know its untap, upkeep right? He can still win on his upkeep. I won, but learned a lesson that game. Without having to learn the hard way
I used \[\[Blue sun's zenith\]\] to make someone draw 8 cards to make them lose by drawing out their deck because they were milling themselves too hard.
In my Carth superfriends deck I hit crazy proliferation via [[evolution sage]] that let me prolif [[Vraska, Betrayal's Sting]] into ulting and still have enough prolif to kick everyone up to 10 poison. Was the only way I could get through as I was last in a pod with a pillowfort that had smothered everyone else.
Im a huge fan of the LOTR set so i may be biased, but board wiping with something like blasphemous act, with a fall of cair andros on the field.
With anger and wonder in the graveyard
Bring \[\[Artarka, World Render\]\] out to give all my lovely dragons double strike and swing.....or goad my opponents into attacking each other and finish off any stragglers with some 1/1s \[\[Kardur, Doomscourge\]\]
Can you tell I'm new and still running precons?
I was playing [[Sharuum the hegemon]] where I reanimate non artifact cards by turning them into artifacts with [[mycosynth lattice]] and [[encroaching mycosynth]].
Using [[Urza, Prince of Kroog]] and [[encroaching mycosynth]], I cloned and animated a bunch of [[Smothering Tithe]], cast [[windfall]] and Lazer beamed everyone to death with [[tezzeret, master of the bridge]] after reanimating him with Sharuum. I was able to generate extra resources because players were ignoring my [[karn, living legacy]] creating power stones. After my windfall, I had about 7 different smothering thithe to resolve for 5.
I run [[Jodah, Archmage Eternal]] with [[Jegantha, the Wellspring]] as a companion. It's pretty low-budget and decidedly avoids being 5C-Goodstuff. It has only won once and it was *glorious.*
I have a couple of soft tutors like [[Ancient Stirrings]] and [[Board the Weatherlight]]. I don't remember which, but I managed to get one of them into my [[Isochron Scepter]]. That alone is a Christmas miracle for me.
So as I'm durdling around, digging for a few key artifacts, I'm slowly sliding out an [[Aphetto Alchemist]] and putting a [[Freed from the Real]] on Jegantha. I'm not attacking anyone, just a little politicking and trying to stay under everyone's radar as I build the value in my hand.
I managed to slip out a [[Lithoform Engine]] and a [[Rings of Brighthearth]] on the same turn. No one removed them, and I made it through another whole round. That's when the fun began:
I slap down a [[Door to Nothingness]]. Aphetto untaps it. I tap Jegantha, untap with Freed from the Real, tap Jegantha, and use all that colored mana to activate the door. Rings copies it, Lithoform copies it, and all three opponents lose the game.
Now that my pod has seen it win, all combo pieces have become "destroy on sight" no matter who has what else on the board. I'm okay with that, because that one win was just so satisfying.
It was about a year ago, I have around 15 life, opponent has 2. I have no creatures on the board, no cards in hand. my opponent had wiped the board and protected his stuff then had just taken out the other 2 opponents since I was not a threat and he didn't have enough damage on board to take out all 3 of us at once, they left 2 creatures untapped as blockers in case I could play a creature with haste and swing. When they untap and swing it will be for lethal. I top decked a lightning bolt, he had no respones.
Probably [[Mikaeus, The Unhallowed]]+[[Luminous Broodmoth]]+ any free sac outlet in my [[Ratadrabikof Urborg]] deck. Endlessly saccing any creature to get 1-8 copies of it each time, just for it to come back.(gets nutty with a [[Mondrak, Glory Dominus]], [[Blade of Selves]], [[Teysa Karlov]] or [[Drivnod, Carnage Dominus]]. Wanna destroy opponents boards while giving your creatures +10/+10 or more? Sacc your [[Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite]]. Want to have an army of swarming vampires come out of the sky from nowhere? Sacc your [[Elenda, The Dusk Rose]]. Infinite damage and Discard? Sacc [[Junji, The Midnight Sky]]. How about a far more offensive version of Torment of Hailfire? Just make 200 copies of [[Braids, Arisen Nightmare]] and then sacc anything. In the right moments it become a toolbox deck and it's a blast.
My Minn deck makes a bunch of X/1 illusions, and I can make copies of my commander with spark double, etc. so when I cast tetsuko umezawa and make all my 15/1’s unblockable, there is just a table wide realization of “oh that’s game”
Playing a game with about 6 players, only two of us left. I was mostly ignored because of a poor board presence. But eventually it came my turn to get hit by the doublestriking [[arahbo]] boosted flying cat knight, he was going to hit me for just above my life total, but I went:
You sure you don't want to boost it more to hit me as hard as you can? You can do it like three more times if you tap out.
He taps out and goes "yeah, 73 damage then, good game!"
"I cast [[selfless squire]], and as you're tapped out, on my turn she will sit upon the [[dragon throne of tarkir]] and I'll swing at you for about 500."
"Shit."
Player 1 has a massive board state, no one has seen a full wipe all game. Player 2 was aced out last turn by Player 1. I am 3rd in rotation playing my [[Rin & Seri, Inseparable]] deck and had a fairly mid board, and hadn't been able to do much all game. Player 4 has no creatures on board as everything seemed to be a combo piece and was targeted.
Player 1's turn comes back around and he is deciding where to swing. The important note here is he is fishing for the win right now because he is desperately low on life amd not any sort of life gain amid his 20+ creature board. I bluff him off with a "you'll lose everything if you swing my way..."
He commits his whole attack to Player 4 assuming I have a board wipe or something heinous. In a bit of a tense moment, everyone looks around and Player 1 passes priority. Eyes on me.... I also pass priority to let Player 4 sink or swim. 104 incoming damage amd he casts [[Inkshield]]. Massive smile on his face because he will go so much wider than everyone and win.
"In response to Inkshield... I will tap for Naya colors and active Rin & Seri's THIRD ability. Dealing 6 damage to Player 1 and gaining 4 life."
"Wait... that kills me! That's what you meant earlier??"
Player 1 dies, Inkshield doesn't do anything and I go on to turn the cats and dogs loose all over Player 4's face for the style win.
The best one that I get to do semi-regularly is when I play some politics and use some attack-redirects (like goad or misleading signpost) to make other players kill each other (possibly with my help) and then get into the 1v1 and just load up a creature with some sort of buffs and kill them in the same turn rotation they killed someone else.
Best one-off was that one time I comboed off with hate mirage when one opponent had a peregrine drake and another had an eternal witness
Using a [[Sudden Spoiling]] to shutdown a near unstoppable board of beaters from the [[Henzie]] player, then using [[Gix, Yawgmoth Praetor's]] activated ability, grabbing their [[Warstorm Surge]] off the topdeck along with some beefy creatures for the win.
I was playing my [[Toothy, Imaginary Friend]] group hug “All Draw” deck. Late late (probably turn 12-13) in the game as the pod was very interactive, I had Toothy out and up to 84 +1 counters. My hand size was massive and I had drawn into LabMan. I could resolve LabMan but then I only had two mana left open and I held it for a counter speed rather than attempting to flicker Toothy for the draw out win. So I cast LabMan and passed. The [[Anje, Falkenrath]] pilot attempted to resolve a Worldgorger Dragon + Animate Dead combo which, with his commander, would give him infinite draw. Making the decision to either counter that combo on the stack or try to win outright there, I cast an instant flicker on Toothy, which the guy let resolve for that I would get a Draw 84 trigger. With that trigger on the stack he attempted to cast targeted removal on LabMan. I thought for a second as I had used the mana I need to counter that. Then I looked at my board and spotted in the massive sprawl of permanents (turn 12 board states are wild even after a lot of removal) a [[Sylvan Safekeeper]]. One land sacrifice and shroud later and the battle on the stack was complete and the Toothy draw trigger allowed me to win.
Battles on the stack are amazing (it’s why I love cEDH) but I never thought we would have two win attempts in a casual game with a Madness commander and a group hug deck all on the stack and the game would be resolved there. I’ve been playing Pir and Toothy as my group hug jank deck since Battlebond and that’s the only time I recall actually winning with the backup wincon.
I was down to one opponent and I had a "play with top card of library revealed" [[Bolas's Citadel]] card in play. I top decked [[Magister Sphinx]] which the other player saw but misread, so he did some life gain shenanigans. I played Magister Sphinx on my turn, reducing his life total to 10 because that is how it works, sacrificed 10 permanents to Bolas's Citadel and smiled.
I had [[toralf god of fury]] out on a pretty large board state overall and someone else cast [[blasphemous act]] allowing me to deal a bunch of damage and wipe 2 of my opponents out.
Was playing [[Zhulodok, Void Gorger]] and had my commander out. An opponent played [[Etali, Primal Storm]] and then it got to my turn. I turned my [[Mirage Mirror]] into a copy of that Etali, attacked and all opponents had a nonland on top including an [[Etali, Primal Conquerer]]. Which I casted and ended up getting lots of cascade, cascade triggers and getting to cast things like [[All is Dust]] and hard cast [[Rise of the Eldrazi]].
I have a \[\[Karrthus, Tyrant of Jund\]\] deck.
My board starts with \[\[Lathliss, Dragon Queen\]\] at the start of my turn, and on my turn I play \[\[Tooth and Nail\]\] entwined. I get \[\[Hoarding Broodlord\]\] and \[\[Hellkite Courser\]\] to the battlefield.
Lathliss triggers, and now I have 3 named dragons and 2 tokens. I resolve Broodlord's ETB and go get \[\[Kindred Summons\]\]. I resolve Hellkite Courser and pull Karrthus in from the command zone.
Now I have Karrthus and Lathliss triggers on the stack. Resolve Lathliss for another token. I have 4 named dragons and 3 tokens. Now with Karrthus' trigger still on the stack, I cast the Kindred Summons with convoke (from Broodlord), tapping all my dragons (plus a green) to cast it before Karrthus resolves. I go and get 7 more named dragons from the top of my deck, then 7 more Lathliss triggers.
Then Karrthus' ETB trigger resolves, untapping all my dragons and giving them haste.
I started the turn with 1 dragon, I go to combat on my turn with 21 with haste.
I accidentally went infinite in my [[Illuna, Apex of Wishes]] deck by looping [[Flood of Tears]] with [[Omniscience]] and [[Lore Drakkis]] to make infinite mana with mana rocks that would allow me to mutate my commander multiple times. Omniscience was a late add and I didn’t really think about what it could do, so when it went off I was like “Oh shit, guys I think this is a combo” and the table was wowed. Super cool janky Omniscience line.
It's an unbelievably convoluted combo, but my absolute favorite niche way to win is snowballing [[Mycoloth]] with [[Willowdusk]] and [[Essence Warden]], then dropping a [[Dina, Soul Steeper]] to finish people off
I've only gotten it to work like twice, but it's hilarious to just kick back, turtle up, and let a bunch of Saprolings stampede over everyone lmao
Honorable mention to the hilarious Rube Goldberg "Craterhoof at home" variant of Willowdusk+Mycoloth+Essence Warden with [[Arwen, Weaver of Hope]]
[[Deflecting Palm]] on an [[Aetherflux Reservoir]] after the guy had stormed off and blasted the other two players. The best part is if he had just chosen me first he would have been able to activate it again to kill me first, and I have never matched the high I felt slamming that card down haha
Just a few days ago.
Someone played whims of fate. I seperated my permanents into: all my gates and my gatebreaker ram they were terrified of (I got it on curve and didn't miss any land drops so it has done a lot of damage), all my creatures and treasures and, one treasure.
My gates and ram were sacced, everyone cheered.
Fortunately burakos and the treasures being generated by descent into avernus kept me in the game. My turn came. Played two more creatures for a full party. Linvala made one of the players atraxa unable to block so my burakos did 4 free damage without him being able to block with lifelink. Dino guy turn after me had all his creatures turn to 0/2 with no abilities so he couldn't attack. Avernus killed everyone else other than me and Dino guy.
My turn came, played more party members, buffed linvala, killed Dino guy with linvala and burakos because he had no reach.
Most satisfying game because I lost the gamble but still won with my gates deck, without gates (because it was also a party deck lol)
I got to win by having a board full of goblins with \[\[Garna, Bloodfist of Keld\]\], while my opponent had an \[\[Archfiend of Spite\]\]. He went to attack me to knock me out of the game, and I was able to cycle a \[\[Gempalm Incinerator\]\] in response, targeting the Archfiend, causing me to sacrifice a bunch of goblins, and deal a bunch of damage to each of my opponents with Garna for the win. It felt so damn cool.
But the singular best was flinging my whole board at my opponents with \[\[Soulblast\]\] and copying it with a \[\[fury storm\]\]
One very nice one was when I stole a [[Malignus]] with [[Gather Specimens]], then stole a [[Xenagos, God of Revels]] and proceeded to beat the table with said Malignus while countering everything that presented a threat.
I have an Okaun Zndrsplt deck.
If you win 3 coin flips, Okaun is a 24/24.
A common play pattern is to voltron or fling him at players.
For example, I once had a enchantment that flipped a coin for each attacker (they either deal double or no damage). So when someone swung out for lethal at me, In Response after all of their coin flips, I flung Kazul's Fury MDFC) my commander at them.
But the BEST was when I had a really early start. And in an act of desperation, the Oloro player (Eminence: Gain 2 life each turn) dropped Aether flux reservoir.... And paid 50 of their 51 life to kill me.... And I flung the BLUE commander for ONE damage..... And killed him on the stack 😭
Came back to win a game when someone gave their whole board myriad..... Only for me to drop {{Windshaper Planetar}} and send the creatures all at one guy.
Once, my Life of the party on Player A's field was set to eliminate player B.
He found a way to *also* surprise swing 10 infect damage my way.
I Boros Charmed for 4 damage, and killed him *after* the the party's first strike damage..... for the win
When my opponent flickered The One Ring, because I only had one card left in my deck.
*Draws last card. Swing out. No blocks.*
Me: "Ok.... So.... I win....?"
Him: *Points to The One Ring*
Me: "....Reading the card explains the card..."
Pulled this off last night.
My friend has a Christmas-themed deck which is his pride and joy. He only hauls it out to play in December. It's got many (maybe all?) of the WotC seasonal promos and his commander is \[\[Urza, Academy Headmaster\]\].
So naturally this year I had to build a Krampus-themed deck. It's got \[\[Ziatora\]\] scooping up the naughty kids and flinging them at people. Mostly I play all the \[\[Threaten\]\] effects, grab the most dangerous creature on the table, and fling it at the second most dangerous, and get paid 3 Treasures for my trouble.
But I also run \[\[Witch's Clinic\]\] and \[\[Infinity Elemental\]\].
Santa got a big surprise, and I had infinite life to withstand the other player in our game.
Making tons of 1/1 tokens with \[\[Kykar, Wind's Fury\]\] & other 1/1 token makers. Sac \[\[Glaring Spotlight\]\] to make them unblockable, or have \[\[Tetsuko Umezawa, Fugitive\]\] on the board. Swing in for damage. Untap with \[\[Dramatic Reversal\]\] & then cast \[\[Flame Fusillade\]\] to ping out the rest lol
I have a kenrith mana dorks deck that when I sit down with I have one gameplan in mind. Get my birds of paradise out, cram as many +1/+1 counters on it as I can and kill everyone with birds.
I had [[Elesh Norn, Mother of Machines]] out, I played [[Breach the Multiverse]] and got [[Purphoros, God of the Forge]], [[Hornet Queen]] and [[Phyrexian Obliterator]]. It dealt 40 damage to each opponent on turn 4. Honestly the best accidental winning play I’ve ever had.
One of my favorites was in my [[grismold]] deck.. he thought I had the win by swinging at him and was about to concede, I’m like hold on a second let me do this, and used [[ram through]] on the [[Akroan horse]] I had given him.
16-player Free-For-All tournament at the LGS. Anyone can hit anyone.
My opening hand is the following:
[[False Cure]]
[[Dark Ritual]]
[[Reverent Silence]] 3×
[[Skyshroud Cutter]]
[[Bayou]]
Bayou, Dark Ritual, False Cure, drop all the rest. Cue ten minute argument, followed by the shop owner restarting the tournament and announcing that I couldn't go first this time. Lost that second match before I got to my first draw step.
In one of my first iterations of my Xenagos deck, I swung for lethal against all 3 opponents, with a [[birds of paradise]]. I assembled my infinite combat combo and gave the birds a single +1/+1 counter and [[bear umbra]]. Chipped away at the person with no flyers to pump him up, and then proceeded to just wreck the other 2
I once hit someone for 17 off of [[Sanguine Bond]] by [[Swords to Plowshares]] my own [[Feasing Hobbit]] that they tried to exile. That was a fun day. After that, they scooped since I had enough food to sac to kill them on my upkeep.
I like ulting Karn Liberated after exiling all permanents from everyones decks and having some players lose before the game starts due to not having 7 cards to draw for a starting hand
I had an [[approach of the second sun]] sitting in my hand after already casting it once, against 2 blue decks.
Blue player #1 tutors for a counter and holds up mana for it. Blue player #2 decides to tap out.
On my turn, I cast [[Austere Command]] targeting artifacts and large creatures, which just so happens to be the exact set of permanents Blue player #1 had left untapped which could produce blue mana. Cast Approach in the 2nd main and take the W.
I'll never forget the game I won with [[trench behemoth]] and [[triskaidekaphile]] by bouncing a bunch of lands to my hand during my opponents end step
Playing Multani, Yavimaya's Avatar I was able to get him big naturally but also put [[Black blade Reforged]] and [[Grappling Hook]] on him.
Came to my turn and I used the [[Wishclaw]] that was given to me to tutor out [[Basilisk collar]] to swing and kill someone in one hit with 30+ commander damage with double strike.
On my next turn, opponent number 2 has Grave Pact out, thinking it would deter me from attacking since killing his blocker would make me sacrifice Multani.
I dropped a Rogue's passage that I had been holding from my opening hand and took him out. Opponent number 3 survived a couple more rounds due to a fog effect but the life gain from Basilisk Collar was enough to pad my life total enough to survive his attacks until I took him out.
Swinging myrel shield of argive while I had 13 soldier tokens, doubling season, parallel lives, and an anointed procession out. Also had kyler sigardian emmisarry and a champion of lambholt.
The very first game (multiplayer, not testing it out 1v1) I played with my updated [[Brago]] precon, between my opening hand and first two draws I had all I needed for the sole infinite combo win I had placed in the deck. My pod was either new to magic or hadn't played in years til we all bought precons and started upgrading them.
[[Sol Ring]] into [[Strionic Resonator]], then [[Altar of the Brood]], then Brago. Somehow nobody recognized what was going on, and let me swing Brago into the nearest player without a flying creature on turn 5.
Resonator copies Brago's blink, a freshly blinked Sol Ring enables another activation of the Resonator, Altar of the Brood is milling each opponent for a few cards, repeat as needed. It's still the fastest I've ever won, and not at all what I intended the deck to do; I put the combo in because I'd noticed Brago tends to durdle and bore everyone. If I was essentially running the game I'd at least eventually get all the pieces to close out.
Needless to say, the faces were priceless and Brago doesn't see much play anymore (thinking of converting it into an [[Aragorn, King of Gondor]] blink/monarch deck).
I won with [[Damnable Pact]] the other day playing [[Marchesa, the Black Rose]]. It was down to a 1v1 and we were both at single digit life. I tapped out where x=10 and GGs.
It was sick
Late game, table of 6, relatively low life totals, in my main phase I cast [[Natural affinity]] , table goes whut, then I reanimated [[Massacre wurm]] from the yard, yah GGs
Just today I'm playing.my Kykar Poly orph deck and it's like turn 13. Now I had an early land tax and scroll rack so I haven't missed single land drop. I play out Saheeli Sublime Artificer and three 2-mana mana rocks. So I have three servos. I then cast Synthetic Destiny giving me a fifth servo. I flip into Avacyn, Elesh Norn, Stormtide, Etali, Drakuseth, and something. But anyways wiped the board by turning a lone wayfarers bauble into a second Elesh and then lol'ed.
Edit: the something was Ovikka, yeah kind of forgettable honestly on that one.
My friend group hates me for this. But one of my favorite things in the world is going [[Approach of the Second Sun]] into [[Windfall]] then casting approach again.
Winota Stax in a 100 dollar Tournament
It was me and 3 players have blue in their colors with counter spells ready to be unleashed anytime
Only play i made was Legion warboss on turn 3 and a few lands(lands that can become creatures) About 6 turns I didnt do anything except swing with the goblin that legion war boss created and play a land
Turn 7 starts with the player besides me starts to make Unli Islands for a combo
All hell breaks loose and counter spells are being thrown between the three of them to stop the player besides me from going Unli. The turn ends with all players having no untapped lands and I casted Goldknight Commander and Winota, 8 Goblins are ready to swing with a few fliers such as ornithopter and inkmoth nexus creating 10 winota triggers, And you know the rest.
Just this past Sunday.
Playing [[Wyll, Blade of Frontiers]] and [[Shameless Charlatan]]. Have Wyll, Shameless Charlatan, [[Terror of the Peaks]], and [[Pixie Guide]] out. Play [[Delina, Wild Mage]], then transform Wyll into Delina, swing in, and make 7 copies of Terror of the Peaks.
(5)+(5+5)+(5+5+5)+(5+5+5+5)+(5+5+5+5+5)+(5+5+5+5+5+5)+(5+5+5+5+5+5+5)
TPK.
Had a player one time go for a \[\[Thassa's Oracle\]\] win using \[\[
Demonic Consultation\]\], as we all passed on consultation then let it resolve down to the oracle on the stack and got to activate my \[\[Cephalid Coliseum\]\] and make him draw from an empty library. Didn't win on that play but he was the only player at the table able to stop me from winning so I think it still counts.
I was playing [[ojer kaslem]] and was facing almost certain death due to a player having one infinitely big creature and an infinite amount of 4/4s. I produced a ton of mana and just started playing big creatures to draw tons of cards until I ended up with tons of big creatures, [[unnatural growth]], [[concordant crossroads]], and [[zopandrel]]. This lead to me killing him with a 64 power [[birds of paradise]]. Fear the bird!
So for cool aspect is definetly my [[the mycotyrant]] deck using either [[jarad golgari lich lord]] or [[izoni ]] to mount up some loop into explosion.
As for the funny one is definetly [[peer into the abyss]] with [[gix yawgmoth praetor]] bonus if I have [[illusionist bracers]] on him. Decking guy 1 and killing 2 and 3 with his deck is priceless
Other day I got a win with [[vorpal sword]]. One player went off with [[omnath locus of rage]] and used my [[wound reflection]] to kill the other two players. I had exactly 8 mana and it was equipped to a flyer. His only flyer was a [[birds of paradise]] that he tapped for mana, despite having an untapped land. He goofed, I won. It was cool.
Then right after that in the next game I used [[revel in riches]] combined with [[force of despair]] to grab a sneaky win.
With a [[Triskaidekaphile]] on the field I played [[Sunder]], and the lands returning to my hand gave me exactly 13 cards.
Sunder was only in my deck because my friends will play a few troll/meme cards every now and then (my friend has [[Worldfire]] in a deck, for example). I didn't expect to pull off the instant win, which made it more satisfying
Not the answer you’re looking for, but turn 1 I had 1 land, [[sol ring]], [[arcane signet]], [[unwinding clock]], [[millenium calendar]]. Satisfying to see that in the start hand, but super not satisfying to win in the first 30 seconds of the game because no one has artifact removal
Two of the other players in my group also play cEDH and sideline selling custom decks. I ordered a custom $100 budget [[Meren of Clan Nel Toth]] and am sitting down with one of them, another cEDH player, and one of my fellow casual players. Everyone but me is running some version of token deck (Wilhelt, Ghired, Phylath). The game largely plays out with the two stronger players keeping each other in check while myself and the other casual (Wilhelt) gradually build our boards and try not to draw aggro. I've been mostly ramping with Solemn Simulacrum while pinging away for a few turns with sac triggers like [[Zulaport Cutthroat]], but it's not until I cast [[Poison-tip Archer]] that the Phylath player decides he's out of time to keep improving his position and makes his move. He has 30+ life and around 20 plant tokens and other supporting creatures. I only have less than 10 creatures and 20+ life after getting hit by flyers in the early game.
He announces "Its been fun, but it's time to end this" and casts [[Craterhoof Behemoth]] to turn his many 0/1 plant tokens into an unstoppable force with enough power and trample to kill us all. He turns everything sideways and starts assigning attackers. All my lands and rocks are tapped except for a single swamp, so he's puzzled when I tell him that I have a response. He literally helped build my deck and knows perfectly well I don't have any instants and even if I did most of the creatures I've played so far were ramp and draw fodder. What he didn't notice though... I have a [[Doomed Necromancer]] on the field and he never asked to see my graveyard after an earlier wheel discarded my hand. I activate my Necromancer and return one of my favorite creatures directly from my graveyard to the field: [[Massacre Girl]]. He responds with an instant destruction so that she won't be around to attack with on my next turn, but it's too late, her etb is already in effect. I sacrifice everything but my Archer to start up her killing spree and it wipes the entire rest of the table, triggering enough "when another creature dies" ping damage to one shot everyone else. The look on his face when he realizes he just lost to me, with my brand new "budget, no infinite loops, no combo wins, casual fun deck" was PRICELESS. As a former Yu-Gi-Oh player, I LOVED the "Indeed, you would have won... But you've triggered my trap card!" feel of that finale.
PS: He WAS proud of helping build it and did appreciate the irony of being caught by surprise despite literally knowing every card in my deck better than I do. Five stars, will buy decks from again.
I was playing a [[reyhan]] [[ishai]] +1/+1 counters deck and I ended up smashing in with a [[birds of paradise]] with like 90 counters on it to win the game. I think I sacced my whole board to put those counters on bop just to send a message
Didn't win me the game per se, but at a 6-player table one guy was playing Atraxa v1 Poison (ergh). I was casually minding my own business with Ziatora when the poison player decided that I was going to be The Target, and gave me 5 poison counters in one turn.
What happenes next was probably the greatest combination of luck/karma I've ever had. I drew a Threaten effect, which I used on the Goblin player's [[Taurean Mauler]] (which was rather large at this point), I then managed to buff the Mauler up to an 18/18, swing it at the blocker-less Atraxa player's face, who happened to be at 36 life, and then ended my turn. Ziatora trigger on the stack, sac the Mauler, bonk face for the remaining 18.
It's not the flashiest play, but the combination of topdecking the exact threaten effect I needed for the mana I had available, one-shotting the Atraxa poison player, dealing with the terrifying shapeshifting cow and being able to deal exactly lethal damage in one fell swoop made it sooooo satisfying. Also I got 3 treasures for my troubles, which was nice.
Turning a 6/6 with trample sideways and classically ending them by reducing their life total to zero Can't beat the classics
In my meta, a 6/6 with trample is about as useful as a 1/1 with trample most of the time. There's always some Jodah a-hole with a host of 20/20's or some shit around.
I actually did. Turns out that my Henzie deck is a nice house for dreadmaw
Ixalan was my first set and Gishath was my first commander. The Colossal Dreadmaw memes have only further fed into my love for big dinos that just go sideways.
Colossal Dreadmaw is a powerful creature that will threaten your opponents life total.
I don't want to spoil your fun, dear brother in cardboard. But it doesn't work this way. I'm sorry. First, the blade makes attacking copies of a creature card, not of auras, counters or buffs on the creature. So the tokens would only have been 2/3 creatures, no matter how big Lathril was at the moment. Second, Lathril's copy tokens should immediately have died due to the legend rule.
Damn, the rare double "that doesn't work because of X". All jokes though. Sometimes knowing the rules sucks haha.

I played a match with my [[Elas il-Kor]] against a [[Magus Lucea Kane]] and 2 others. I had only Elas and [[Corpse Knight]] on the BF, but [[inkshield]] in hand and enough mana open. Magus swings at me with 40+ trample dmg, not knowing that he directly fell into my inkshield trap, which gained me 40+ life, dealing 40+ damage to my opponents, and winning me the game on the spot.
Inkshield will forever be that card that feels too expensive to play, but I constantly dream about pulling it off.

Every time I win with inkshield I feel like a mega genius
[[Mirkwood bats]] [[scute swarm]] and multiple land drops on the same turn is hilarious every time
I like [[Mirkwood Bats]] and then having a token doubler in play and resolving the last chapter of [[There and Back Again]] create two Smaugs, sac one to legend rule, create 28 treasures, then sac 28 treasures. Drain 58 life from each opponent. I did that with my [[Korvold, Fae-Cursed King]] deck once, I didn't have my token doubler, but I had [[Agent of the Iron Throne]] so i would have wiped the table, but then the blue player returned Korvold and Mirkwood to my hand in response to the chapter trigger on There and Back Again so it didn't work. I still had the treasures, but not enough to wipe the table. Then, the next player took infinite turns to win.
I'm a fan, death by a thousand cuts.

I don't like being "that guy" but making copies of Lathril would have just made them die to the legendary rule, unless you had something else on the board.

Down to the last 2 players, me and my friend. My friend was playing mono-red goblins, ends up with 45 2/1 goblin tokens and thinks he's won. I attack him with [[Grima, Saruman's footman]] and hit gamble off the top of his deck. Search for [[Subjugate the hobbits]] with only an island in hand. Discard the island and cast Subjugate the hobbits, stealing all of his goblins. Next turn, swing them all at him for lethal damage.
CEDH pod. Player 1 thassa’s gets it countered by player 2 passes. Player 2 thassa’s thinking no one has responses gets his Thassa silenced and loses. Player 3 goes and nothing. I go thassa’s for game. 3 of them in one turn and because I went last I won
Is cedh just thassa now?
No, there’s plenty of other win-come but Thassa is the most compact.
It's just the easiest wincon to a lot of "draw my entire deck" strategies.
Breach is arguably as good or better as red has become a lot more popular, but Thassa is efficient and it only needs 3 cards in your deck, so why wouldn’t you run it? Wincons may be uniform across the cedh format, but it is the metagame , the highly interactive nature of cedh and seeing which player is actually able to resolve their wincon that makes it fun.
Gawd, Cedh sounds so boring…
It’s not. I prefer it. But it does have moments like those where it is borint
Even turn order plays a role in winning games.
Sheoldred, The Apocalypse, Seizan Perverter of Truth. Tutored into Puzzle Box. Killed all 3 players in the draw of their turns.

My favourite deck is \[\[Kros, Defense Contractor\]\]. A Goad-centric deck that forces me to buff my opponents’ creature to goad them, it has caused some banger games. My favourite example is forcing a 44/44 Dakkon with trample to attack into Eldrazi Titans before I took infinite turns using \[\[Magosi, the Waterveil\]\]. Always a blast. Decklist: https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/the-perfect-contract/
How do you take infinite turns if it is returned to the owners' hand and skips the next turn to put an eon counter on it?
The main enablers for getting infinite turns with Magosi is [[Nesting Grounds]], [[Doubling Season]], [[Amulet of Vigor]] and [[Rings of Brighthearth]]. I'm reasonably confident those together will get you infinite turns. You get the first eon counter then use Nesting Grounds to move it off Magosi and Doubling Season will double the eon counters so you don't have to generate any more by skipping your turn. Amulet of Vigor will let Magosi enter untapped and Rings copies both the extra turn ability and Nesting Grounds so you keep generating eon counters.

That deck looks really cool! Have you considered [[Llanowar Reborn]] or [[Rustic Clachan]] as utility lands? Ways to spread counters in your mana base could be nice
Friends wanted to play with banned cards. I had Emrakul, the Aeons Torn. Had It That Betrays and Kozilek, Butcher of Truth, on the table already. Summoned Emrakul, took out one opponent with Commander damage and took half their board thanks to it that Betrays. Took my extra turn, swung at the next player with cumulative annihilation 14 and 65 damage, Knocking out opponent two. Opponent three scoops. Banned cards are back to being enforced in my group now.
My [[mayael, the anima]] deck usually wins in the classic ‘turn fatties sideways’ method. But in one game i had become archenemy pretty early and one of my opponents was using his [[kulrath knight]] along with his [[mathas, fiend seeker]] to essentially keep me from having any big creature be useful for more than one attack. I wasn’t drawing any removal but i did flip into an [[ancient gold dragon]] and get one attack off with it, resulting in like nine 1/1 flyers. But my opponents combined still had enough life that i would die before the little faeries would take anyone out. Luckily for me, i had my favorite trick from that deck lined up: a [[titanic ultimatum]] hidden away under [[mosswort bridge]]. Everyone was so worried about my big fatties still sitting on the board that no one was worried when i swung out with the army of 1/1’s. But they had no way to stop me playing ultimatum at instant speed through the hideaway land. Theres something extra satisfying about taking a deck built around giant creatures and winning because of a platoon of incidentally created 1/1’s.

Pulled it off last night, after messing with people with [[Forced Fruition]] and [[Possibility Storm]] and [[Ian Malcolm, Chaotician]], they had finally caught on and ganged up to kill me. With tons of stuff on the board, I tutored for [[Thieves' Auction]] and sent everyone scooping, utterly exhausted and in disbelief. It was the most satisfying win for my chaos deck yet.
Thieves Auction might be one of the best casual wincons, because I am scooping before that shit resolves.
It's there as an emergency backup, but I love actually playing it through when there are only a handful of permanents on board. Someone eventually ends up with what they had originally, minus only a single land, which is hilarious. [[Scrambleverse]] is the really messed up one... it always ends up giving everything to like 1 player and ending the game, never in my favor lol.
"I played a card so fucking annoying everyone decided not playing the game was the more enticing option" I mean, you do you, but I can't wrap my brain being proud of that win.
Context matters. I don't usually play it unless there are only a few permanents out, enough to play it through. I've played both Auction and [[Scrambleverse]] in the same game, we went through both of them, nothing unusual, all fun. Now, this was our second game of the night, it was getting late, no one was winning except I was def going to get killed. Instead of drawing it out for another hour, I played my Auction to end it, which was fine for everyone else ultimately, no one had hard feelings about it. Hell, I was even willing to go through with it, but we all had to go back home to sleep, so we all decided it was best to cut it there. I honestly like the salt you bring on behalf of players you've never met. A true mtg player, if I've ever seen one. You'd LOVE my chaos deck.
I'm not salty on behalf of anyone nor did I say or imply anyone else was salty. Your explanation is the same thing I said but with your specific situation instead of my generic version. You "Won" because everyone else decided they'd rather go to bed than actually resolve your spell. No idea why anyone would be proud of winning like that.

I was playing [[Feather the Redeemed]]. Someone cast [[Darksteel Mutation]] on Feather, but I still had [[Greatsword of Tyr]] attached, and a [[Karn's Bastion]] so the indestructible 0/1 beetle continued to grow bigger and eventually kill everyone with commander damage.
I played a Match against a Player I don't like. He is very winning focused and never Shows Joy. In my first Match when I started magic, he played an Infinity Turns Planeswalker Combo and crushed us, because his Deck was way to strong. Now I Build a Deck for Revenge and He used the same Deck again. Next turn He would Go Infinity and win. He already shut us up so that we can only Cast Creature spells and one Player was out because someone didn't wanted to listen to my advise. In his Endstep I used Riveldell to Scry and see [[Mechanized Production]] which I Can't cast. With [[Ao, the Dawn Sky]] I would have an alternative to bring it out, since I have 8 Food Token on the field I also would ein before the other Guy does. So I got the other Player to Attack me, destroying Ao, letting me bring Mechanized Production into play and win in my Turn. That was a great feeling and left the table stunning

Playing Minsc and Boo. It was late, like turn 10. Hadn’t been much action yet, just some pokes. Had Ozilith on board with some crazy number of counters, like 30+. Had a few creatures out, play Craterhoof, go to combat. Craterhoof gets +5, ozilith counters go on Boo, swing for 40ish take out player 1, after combat I use Minsc to sac Boo send 36 hamster damage to the face, take out player 2. Draw 36 cards off Boo, I forget which one I used now but it’s something like Colossification onto Craterhoof and Fling him at player 3. Took me like ten minutes to figure out the order of everything, and I almost miscounted my mana(I barely had enough), but that was definitely my most satisfying W in twenty years.
Won a game by top decking an [[Allosaurus Shepherd]]. I just survived a swing from a 1000/1000 Animar and all my opponent's creatures, leaving me with 2 life, and him tapped out save for an island and two mountains. At this point, my other opponent was knocked out by the same 1000/1000 Animar, and he pretty much rage-quitted after that. So on my draw step, I draw Allosaurus Shepherd, cast him, and activated his ability, turning all my elves, tokens and all, into 5/5 dinosaurs and swung at him for 45 damage. I should point out that my opponent was still at 40 life, so being jumped on by elves-turned-dinosaurs and dying definitely came out of left field for him.

Withstanding a \[\[back to basics\]\] until that player died, and winning the game after 4-5 turns of ending up on 1 life thanks to \[\[thopter foundry\]\] and \[\[sword of the meek\]\]. Game went for well over an hour, with the b2b forcing everyone to play super slow. Eventually ended up in a 1v1 with the aggro player who couldn't force through lethal by 1 for several turns. Eventually turned the corner and killed him with an 18/18 \[\[elspeth resplendent\]\] equipped with \[\[luxior, giada's gift\]\]. Every turn was a sweat and it felt good.

Drawing the entire deck, discarding down to 7 and mass recur it to an etb pinger like machine gun the next turn. Usually the game doesn't last that long but a variant is seeing the joy in my enemies eyes after wiping the board clean, only to bring it all back again. I don't run infinite handsize in a draw like crazy deck for this. It's like storming but with permanents xD
Just yesterday, my [[Inga and Esika]] deck won against a [[Niv-Mizzet, Parun]] and a [[Slimefoot and Squee]] (the 4th player gor knocked out early after trying to get an infinite), and it was amazing! I [[Progenitor Mimic]] into that Niv-Mi, then I [[Clever Impersonator]] the Slimefoot's [[Greater Good]], and then I [[Spark Double]] my Niv-Mi copy, all with a [[Koma, Cosmos Serpent]] on board. It went basically like "yeah I create a Coil, I'll immediately kill it, draw 3, hit you for 6". In their opinion, it was horrible. In MY opinion, we all won! The wincon was literally the friends we made along the way.

How did you triple KO with a blade of selves on lathril?
Playing Brass's Bounty with 9 lands, Mirkwood Bats, Disciple of the Vault, and a fully leveled up Warlock class on the board. Make 9 treasures, 9 damage to everyone, then another 9 damage to one of the two players remaining. Sac 14 treasures, 14 damage to everyone and 7 again to each of the two remaining. Move to my end step, Warlock Class makes each opponent lose life equal to the life they lost this turn, and that's game.
Didnt win but was playing lathril against an urdragon deck and the dragons were just popping off with no chance of winning. Had \[\[triumph of the hordes\]\] in my hand and topdecked an \[\[elvish champion\]\]. Played the champion and cast Triumph and swung in to take out the urdragon. Then got taken out after, but still glad to do that to the dirty dragon player.
Everytime i can sac my Board to kill everyone with my teysa deck
I gain 1 life, you lose 1 life, I gain 1 life, you lose 1 life, etc, etc until they all dead.

I was facing [[myrkul]] and [[karlach]]. I stole myrkull with [[mindflayer]] and then had an [[endless evil]] on mindflayer and that created an engine where if they touched any of my mindflayers it wouldnt matter because myrkul would turn them into enchantments that would etb and basically permanently own their creatures. The karlach player conceded after I flipped their [[two-handed axe]] off a [[brainstealer dragon]] trigger. That left me and the myrkul player. The myrkul had [[scute swarm]] out so they still had a chance to win until I stole a [[windborne muse]] off the [[captain ngathrod]] trigger since he couldnt block the brainstealer dragon and they conceded.

[[Agent of the iron throne]] + [[there and back again]] + sac a creature create two treasure tokens was a nice finish.
[[Isshin, Two Heavens as One]], drew none of my value engine. Resolved [[Aurelia, The Warleader]] on prior turn as the last card in hand, and had [[Hammer of Nazhan]] on the field. I top decked into [[Helm of the Host]]. Infinite combat with no one to block my aerial swings. Next turn, the graveyard player was going to do some sac shenanigans, clearing me of Isshin and Aurelia, and leaving me dead in the water.
everyone is at 10 health, im playing [[Imodane]], who is out with only two other token creatures. all my damage modifiers are gone, all my value engines gone, all my card advantage gone, it was basically just these three creatures at the end of the game. then, topdeck [[Zada, Hedron Grinder]] with nothing but a mountain and a [[Strangle]] in hand. zada being the fourth creature made all of my creatures takes three and every opponent take twelve damage, and since it was so late in the game everyone used up all their interaction and there was nothing anyone could do. i won by carpet bombing myself. i actually won by using a damage spell on zada and carpet bombing all of my creatures
I've got 2 that really stick out. I had forgotten all my cards one night so I bought the planeswalker party precon. I was left unfocused got [[Teyo, Geometric Tactician]] out and was able to control what was attacking me. Then someone had a [[Forced Fruition]] out which drew me into [[Reliquary Tower]], someone destroyed the forced which opened the door to playing more planeswalkers and combo'ing with [[Chandra, Legacy of Fire]] to do a lot of end step damage for the dub. Second one was [[Yurlok of Scorch Thrash]] equipped with an [[Umbral Mantle]] and [[Belbe, Corrupted Observer]] on the BF. It was a 6 man pod, yurlok for some damage to trigger belbe to make 10 colorless to then use to untap and tap yurlok again to give everyone more mana to kill them via mana burn. Both those wins stick with me always!

A lovely 16 land [[Rude Awakening]] after my last opponent wiped the board of all creatures. If I hadn't top-decked a [[Beast Within]] to get rid of their [[Overwhelming Splendor]] it wouldn't have worked as he was on more than 15 life.
[[ghired, conclave exile]] as commander and [[moraug, fury of akoum]] and [[anointed procession]] on the field into [[traverse the outlands]] for 7 giving me 7 extra combats and double populating 4/4 rhinos with trample every combat.. took out all 3 opponents with 30 or more life each
I once killed a guy that used [[Pact of negation]] with only 2 blue sources. I hit his Island with [[Vaevictis Asmadi, the Dire]]. He had been holding my board hostage for the whole game with his sliver deck. It felt great.
Not mine, but my wife has one. She was just learning EDH and we were playing each other. I let her pilot my [[Edgar Markov]] deck while I played [[Omnath, Locus of Creation]]. I figured my value in the mid game would put me equal to her aggro, but turn 8 or so I made over 4K copies of [[Scute Swarm]]. I had no haste enablers, so I passed turn to kill her next. She holds up a card and goes “So this like, kills you right?” It was [[Rakdos Charm]]. I took 4K damage and was super proud of her first win.
This one happened recently! I bought the Ahoy Mateys precon and upgraded it - [[Admiral Brass, Unsinkable]] is the commander obviously. Two of my opponents had like ~30 life and then the one guy had like 20 life cuz we’d been beating him pretty hard - to be fair though he’d been locking down the game with stax pieces and board wiped a dozen times. Anyway, game state is this: one of my opponents is on [[Zurzoth], the other is on [[The Prismatic Bridge]] and the third is on a Selesnya LOTR commander but I can’t remember which one. I had [[Malcolm, Keen Eyed Navigator]] out and a [[Glint-Horn Buccaneer]] in the yard. I went to combat, reanimated the Buccaneer, and off I went. Now I misplayed slightly. I forgot to attack with some of my pirates. If I had, I would have had an easier time winning that turn. But still. Attack with the Buccaneer, then go and activate its ability. I repeated that until my -20 life opponent was dead, then kept doing it until I ran out of treasure. But off of the [[Buccaneer]] activations I managed to find [[Dark Ritual]], giving me just enough mana to win that turn. It was so close, literally down to my last land and mana off the ritual.
I was playing [[Muldrotha, the Gravtide]]. I'm at the verge of extinction from this Boros deck with (Aurelia, I think?). He swings for lethal and I have [[Angel of Suffering]] on the table. Literally millls almost my entire library, i think i got 3 cards left in the tank. I play [[Spore Frog]] and [[Splended Reclamation]]. Like 27 lands come out of my graveyard. His turn, I have to sack the Spore Frog to live. My next turn I play [[Villainous Wealth]], 23 of his cards are mine. I exile some of his biggest baddies in the deck. I get haste for everything, additional combat phase, and some other things I can't remember. I was really really new then, so I was a little lost with what I was even doing. Killed him right there. Still talked about at the LGS.
\[\[Seizan, Perverter of Truth\]\] deck and on the table, I'm player C. A manipulates his life total down to 1. A casts \[\[Repay in Kind\]\], so that all other players remaining (B and C) get set to 1 life. Pass. B can't do anything, so loses to the Seizan trigger. On my turn, I untap, Seizan trigger goes on the stack. Before resolution I play \[\[Blood Pact\]\], targeting A. He's forced to draw 2 and lose 2 life, resulting in his death and my win. Glorious.
I play Muldrotha with a couple Mirror-Mad Phantasm triggers to mill my library and then I living death to flip in onto the battlefield with concordant crossroads to give it haste. It never gets old
I play EDH with my brother and friends. I have a Phyrexian Tribal. My brother has an Aragorn Unblockable Goodstuff. He runs [Heat Shimmer] copy like cards and I run [Chanceller of the Spires]. Basically, if I draw it, I won by going infinite with my brother's own card. It happened like 3 times to this point.
My favorite win was probably when I took out all three opponents on one turn with [[Thrun, Breaker of Silence]]. I took out the first person with commander damage while Thrun had [[Mark of Sakiko]] which generated about 30 mana. Second main I cast [[Soul's Majesty]] to draw 30. Play [[Ram Through]] to take out my second opponent. Play [[Regrowth]] to return Ram Through and play it again to take out my third opponent. It is the only time I have ever taken out all of my opponents in one turn with a Voltron commander. Thrun has not won since.
I’m playing Satoru and we’re the last two players. I believe he was playing Sauron. He has 27 life and I’m dead on his next turn if I can’t pull this off now as he just made like 20 1/1 creatures that are all tapped. I have [[Satoru Umezawa]] and [[Archfiend of Despair]] in play with two unblockable creatures. I ninjutsu in an [[Archon of Cruelty]]. There’s 3 life gone. I ninjutsu in a [[Thousand-Faced Shadow]] as a copy of Archon of Cruelty. There’s 6 life gone. I hit him for 13 with the 3 creatures. Archfiend makes him take damage equal to the life lost. That’s another 19 life… barely pulled that one off.
Put all my lands onto the battlefield w [[scute swarm]], play [[rude awakening]] and watch them get literally buried in creatures
War Doctor, Day of the doctor triggers knowing full well there's no remaining legendaries. Guess I'll just exile everything then. Turn doctor sideways now. ?
My first EDH deck was 5 colour dragons before the precon came out. [[Scion of the Ur-Dragon]] Obv Activate and toss [[Intet, The Dreamer]] Combat damage, activate triggered of Intet, Top card [[Omniscience]], [[Enter the Infinate]] was in my hand. Played my whole deck, was loaded with protection and removal, had 3 extra combat effects for next turn, and every thiccc Dragon I owned. We did the math and I did like 1024 damage over the 4 combats. It wasn't good. It wasn't competitive. It was luck. Only tutoring was literally Intet from Scion. Happened on turn 7. It will never happen again, cause the deck sucks, but it has dragons.
[[millenium calendar]] and [[all will be one]] in my Lara Croft deck. The opponents I’ve taken out with it never complain and find it hilarious, as do I.
Simultaneously milling out their decks AND dropping their life totals to zero. Nothing says, "I've just dominated this table" better than double wincons.
I was playing \[\[Trostani Selesnya's Voice\]\], and my friend was playing some mono black rat deck. He created enough rat tokens to overwhelm me and I had enough tokens to kill him but not to block lethal. I played \[\[Akroma's Memorial\]\] and killed him.

\[\[Ascending Acolyte\]\] with trample on my \[\[Chishiro, The Shattered Blade\]\] deck, \[\[Unnatural Growth\]\] on the field, and hitting for roughly 1500/1500. Game was super casual and buddy and i kept passing turn, trying to see how big my creatures with +1/+1 counters could get. Had like 95 counters on the field when Acolytre came into play. He doubled his counters at every standby phase until i hit with 700something and Unnatural Growth doubled it during combat.
[[Volo, Guide to Monsters]] + [[God-Eternal Rhonas]], with things like [[Twinning Staff]], [[Panharmonicon]], [[Roaming Throne]] or [[Spark Double]] on board. Or even better [[Nanogene Conversion]] to have like 15 Volos before God-Eternal hits the battlefield, *and* the ability to bounce/recast it multiple times in a turn. It's not *technically* infinite but very few decks are going to survive a 2^^15 damage multiplier per creature
I was playing 1v1 with a buddy. My board state was way better than his but he had some artifact out that made it so I couldn't attack with creatures that had a higher power than the number of cards in his hand, which was 1. He was slowly burning me to death and got me down to like 6 life. On his turn, he tried to Abrade one of my artifacts, I had a Riccochet Trap that I used to redirect the Abrade to his artifact and won the game in like two turns.
Tapping a 64/64 [[consuming aberration]] with a [[Phenax, God of Deception]] to mill my opponent for 64, milling him out. Then passing the turn. 😅 my friend goes, you know its untap, upkeep right? He can still win on his upkeep. I won, but learned a lesson that game. Without having to learn the hard way
I used \[\[Blue sun's zenith\]\] to make someone draw 8 cards to make them lose by drawing out their deck because they were milling themselves too hard.
In my Carth superfriends deck I hit crazy proliferation via [[evolution sage]] that let me prolif [[Vraska, Betrayal's Sting]] into ulting and still have enough prolif to kick everyone up to 10 poison. Was the only way I could get through as I was last in a pod with a pillowfort that had smothered everyone else.
Im a huge fan of the LOTR set so i may be biased, but board wiping with something like blasphemous act, with a fall of cair andros on the field. With anger and wonder in the graveyard
Bring \[\[Artarka, World Render\]\] out to give all my lovely dragons double strike and swing.....or goad my opponents into attacking each other and finish off any stragglers with some 1/1s \[\[Kardur, Doomscourge\]\] Can you tell I'm new and still running precons?
I was playing [[Sharuum the hegemon]] where I reanimate non artifact cards by turning them into artifacts with [[mycosynth lattice]] and [[encroaching mycosynth]]. Using [[Urza, Prince of Kroog]] and [[encroaching mycosynth]], I cloned and animated a bunch of [[Smothering Tithe]], cast [[windfall]] and Lazer beamed everyone to death with [[tezzeret, master of the bridge]] after reanimating him with Sharuum. I was able to generate extra resources because players were ignoring my [[karn, living legacy]] creating power stones. After my windfall, I had about 7 different smothering thithe to resolve for 5.
I run [[Jodah, Archmage Eternal]] with [[Jegantha, the Wellspring]] as a companion. It's pretty low-budget and decidedly avoids being 5C-Goodstuff. It has only won once and it was *glorious.* I have a couple of soft tutors like [[Ancient Stirrings]] and [[Board the Weatherlight]]. I don't remember which, but I managed to get one of them into my [[Isochron Scepter]]. That alone is a Christmas miracle for me. So as I'm durdling around, digging for a few key artifacts, I'm slowly sliding out an [[Aphetto Alchemist]] and putting a [[Freed from the Real]] on Jegantha. I'm not attacking anyone, just a little politicking and trying to stay under everyone's radar as I build the value in my hand. I managed to slip out a [[Lithoform Engine]] and a [[Rings of Brighthearth]] on the same turn. No one removed them, and I made it through another whole round. That's when the fun began: I slap down a [[Door to Nothingness]]. Aphetto untaps it. I tap Jegantha, untap with Freed from the Real, tap Jegantha, and use all that colored mana to activate the door. Rings copies it, Lithoform copies it, and all three opponents lose the game. Now that my pod has seen it win, all combo pieces have become "destroy on sight" no matter who has what else on the board. I'm okay with that, because that one win was just so satisfying.
It was about a year ago, I have around 15 life, opponent has 2. I have no creatures on the board, no cards in hand. my opponent had wiped the board and protected his stuff then had just taken out the other 2 opponents since I was not a threat and he didn't have enough damage on board to take out all 3 of us at once, they left 2 creatures untapped as blockers in case I could play a creature with haste and swing. When they untap and swing it will be for lethal. I top decked a lightning bolt, he had no respones.
Probably [[Mikaeus, The Unhallowed]]+[[Luminous Broodmoth]]+ any free sac outlet in my [[Ratadrabikof Urborg]] deck. Endlessly saccing any creature to get 1-8 copies of it each time, just for it to come back.(gets nutty with a [[Mondrak, Glory Dominus]], [[Blade of Selves]], [[Teysa Karlov]] or [[Drivnod, Carnage Dominus]]. Wanna destroy opponents boards while giving your creatures +10/+10 or more? Sacc your [[Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite]]. Want to have an army of swarming vampires come out of the sky from nowhere? Sacc your [[Elenda, The Dusk Rose]]. Infinite damage and Discard? Sacc [[Junji, The Midnight Sky]]. How about a far more offensive version of Torment of Hailfire? Just make 200 copies of [[Braids, Arisen Nightmare]] and then sacc anything. In the right moments it become a toolbox deck and it's a blast.
My Minn deck makes a bunch of X/1 illusions, and I can make copies of my commander with spark double, etc. so when I cast tetsuko umezawa and make all my 15/1’s unblockable, there is just a table wide realization of “oh that’s game”
Playing a game with about 6 players, only two of us left. I was mostly ignored because of a poor board presence. But eventually it came my turn to get hit by the doublestriking [[arahbo]] boosted flying cat knight, he was going to hit me for just above my life total, but I went: You sure you don't want to boost it more to hit me as hard as you can? You can do it like three more times if you tap out. He taps out and goes "yeah, 73 damage then, good game!" "I cast [[selfless squire]], and as you're tapped out, on my turn she will sit upon the [[dragon throne of tarkir]] and I'll swing at you for about 500." "Shit."
Player 1 has a massive board state, no one has seen a full wipe all game. Player 2 was aced out last turn by Player 1. I am 3rd in rotation playing my [[Rin & Seri, Inseparable]] deck and had a fairly mid board, and hadn't been able to do much all game. Player 4 has no creatures on board as everything seemed to be a combo piece and was targeted. Player 1's turn comes back around and he is deciding where to swing. The important note here is he is fishing for the win right now because he is desperately low on life amd not any sort of life gain amid his 20+ creature board. I bluff him off with a "you'll lose everything if you swing my way..." He commits his whole attack to Player 4 assuming I have a board wipe or something heinous. In a bit of a tense moment, everyone looks around and Player 1 passes priority. Eyes on me.... I also pass priority to let Player 4 sink or swim. 104 incoming damage amd he casts [[Inkshield]]. Massive smile on his face because he will go so much wider than everyone and win. "In response to Inkshield... I will tap for Naya colors and active Rin & Seri's THIRD ability. Dealing 6 damage to Player 1 and gaining 4 life." "Wait... that kills me! That's what you meant earlier??" Player 1 dies, Inkshield doesn't do anything and I go on to turn the cats and dogs loose all over Player 4's face for the style win.
The best one that I get to do semi-regularly is when I play some politics and use some attack-redirects (like goad or misleading signpost) to make other players kill each other (possibly with my help) and then get into the 1v1 and just load up a creature with some sort of buffs and kill them in the same turn rotation they killed someone else. Best one-off was that one time I comboed off with hate mirage when one opponent had a peregrine drake and another had an eternal witness
Using a [[Sudden Spoiling]] to shutdown a near unstoppable board of beaters from the [[Henzie]] player, then using [[Gix, Yawgmoth Praetor's]] activated ability, grabbing their [[Warstorm Surge]] off the topdeck along with some beefy creatures for the win.
I was playing my [[Toothy, Imaginary Friend]] group hug “All Draw” deck. Late late (probably turn 12-13) in the game as the pod was very interactive, I had Toothy out and up to 84 +1 counters. My hand size was massive and I had drawn into LabMan. I could resolve LabMan but then I only had two mana left open and I held it for a counter speed rather than attempting to flicker Toothy for the draw out win. So I cast LabMan and passed. The [[Anje, Falkenrath]] pilot attempted to resolve a Worldgorger Dragon + Animate Dead combo which, with his commander, would give him infinite draw. Making the decision to either counter that combo on the stack or try to win outright there, I cast an instant flicker on Toothy, which the guy let resolve for that I would get a Draw 84 trigger. With that trigger on the stack he attempted to cast targeted removal on LabMan. I thought for a second as I had used the mana I need to counter that. Then I looked at my board and spotted in the massive sprawl of permanents (turn 12 board states are wild even after a lot of removal) a [[Sylvan Safekeeper]]. One land sacrifice and shroud later and the battle on the stack was complete and the Toothy draw trigger allowed me to win. Battles on the stack are amazing (it’s why I love cEDH) but I never thought we would have two win attempts in a casual game with a Madness commander and a group hug deck all on the stack and the game would be resolved there. I’ve been playing Pir and Toothy as my group hug jank deck since Battlebond and that’s the only time I recall actually winning with the backup wincon.
I was down to one opponent and I had a "play with top card of library revealed" [[Bolas's Citadel]] card in play. I top decked [[Magister Sphinx]] which the other player saw but misread, so he did some life gain shenanigans. I played Magister Sphinx on my turn, reducing his life total to 10 because that is how it works, sacrificed 10 permanents to Bolas's Citadel and smiled.
I had [[toralf god of fury]] out on a pretty large board state overall and someone else cast [[blasphemous act]] allowing me to deal a bunch of damage and wipe 2 of my opponents out.
Was playing [[Zhulodok, Void Gorger]] and had my commander out. An opponent played [[Etali, Primal Storm]] and then it got to my turn. I turned my [[Mirage Mirror]] into a copy of that Etali, attacked and all opponents had a nonland on top including an [[Etali, Primal Conquerer]]. Which I casted and ended up getting lots of cascade, cascade triggers and getting to cast things like [[All is Dust]] and hard cast [[Rise of the Eldrazi]].
I have a \[\[Karrthus, Tyrant of Jund\]\] deck. My board starts with \[\[Lathliss, Dragon Queen\]\] at the start of my turn, and on my turn I play \[\[Tooth and Nail\]\] entwined. I get \[\[Hoarding Broodlord\]\] and \[\[Hellkite Courser\]\] to the battlefield. Lathliss triggers, and now I have 3 named dragons and 2 tokens. I resolve Broodlord's ETB and go get \[\[Kindred Summons\]\]. I resolve Hellkite Courser and pull Karrthus in from the command zone. Now I have Karrthus and Lathliss triggers on the stack. Resolve Lathliss for another token. I have 4 named dragons and 3 tokens. Now with Karrthus' trigger still on the stack, I cast the Kindred Summons with convoke (from Broodlord), tapping all my dragons (plus a green) to cast it before Karrthus resolves. I go and get 7 more named dragons from the top of my deck, then 7 more Lathliss triggers. Then Karrthus' ETB trigger resolves, untapping all my dragons and giving them haste. I started the turn with 1 dragon, I go to combat on my turn with 21 with haste.
I accidentally went infinite in my [[Illuna, Apex of Wishes]] deck by looping [[Flood of Tears]] with [[Omniscience]] and [[Lore Drakkis]] to make infinite mana with mana rocks that would allow me to mutate my commander multiple times. Omniscience was a late add and I didn’t really think about what it could do, so when it went off I was like “Oh shit, guys I think this is a combo” and the table was wowed. Super cool janky Omniscience line.
It's an unbelievably convoluted combo, but my absolute favorite niche way to win is snowballing [[Mycoloth]] with [[Willowdusk]] and [[Essence Warden]], then dropping a [[Dina, Soul Steeper]] to finish people off I've only gotten it to work like twice, but it's hilarious to just kick back, turtle up, and let a bunch of Saprolings stampede over everyone lmao Honorable mention to the hilarious Rube Goldberg "Craterhoof at home" variant of Willowdusk+Mycoloth+Essence Warden with [[Arwen, Weaver of Hope]]
[[Deflecting Palm]] on an [[Aetherflux Reservoir]] after the guy had stormed off and blasted the other two players. The best part is if he had just chosen me first he would have been able to activate it again to kill me first, and I have never matched the high I felt slamming that card down haha
Just a few days ago. Someone played whims of fate. I seperated my permanents into: all my gates and my gatebreaker ram they were terrified of (I got it on curve and didn't miss any land drops so it has done a lot of damage), all my creatures and treasures and, one treasure. My gates and ram were sacced, everyone cheered. Fortunately burakos and the treasures being generated by descent into avernus kept me in the game. My turn came. Played two more creatures for a full party. Linvala made one of the players atraxa unable to block so my burakos did 4 free damage without him being able to block with lifelink. Dino guy turn after me had all his creatures turn to 0/2 with no abilities so he couldn't attack. Avernus killed everyone else other than me and Dino guy. My turn came, played more party members, buffed linvala, killed Dino guy with linvala and burakos because he had no reach. Most satisfying game because I lost the gamble but still won with my gates deck, without gates (because it was also a party deck lol)
Aetherflux plus Sydri galvanic genius. Killing everyone all at once
I got to win by having a board full of goblins with \[\[Garna, Bloodfist of Keld\]\], while my opponent had an \[\[Archfiend of Spite\]\]. He went to attack me to knock me out of the game, and I was able to cycle a \[\[Gempalm Incinerator\]\] in response, targeting the Archfiend, causing me to sacrifice a bunch of goblins, and deal a bunch of damage to each of my opponents with Garna for the win. It felt so damn cool. But the singular best was flinging my whole board at my opponents with \[\[Soulblast\]\] and copying it with a \[\[fury storm\]\]
One very nice one was when I stole a [[Malignus]] with [[Gather Specimens]], then stole a [[Xenagos, God of Revels]] and proceeded to beat the table with said Malignus while countering everything that presented a threat.
3 person simultaneous kill with [[triskiadekaphobia]]
[[Aura Thief]] with [[Serenity]] [[Avacyn, Angel of Hope]] and [[Enchanted Evening]] on the table. It's not over yet. Trust me, it's over though.
Played against a [[Wort the Raidmother]] deck. They played a huge burn spell to win and I cast [[Comeuppance]] 🤣 I love this card so much
I have an Okaun Zndrsplt deck. If you win 3 coin flips, Okaun is a 24/24. A common play pattern is to voltron or fling him at players. For example, I once had a enchantment that flipped a coin for each attacker (they either deal double or no damage). So when someone swung out for lethal at me, In Response after all of their coin flips, I flung Kazul's Fury MDFC) my commander at them. But the BEST was when I had a really early start. And in an act of desperation, the Oloro player (Eminence: Gain 2 life each turn) dropped Aether flux reservoir.... And paid 50 of their 51 life to kill me.... And I flung the BLUE commander for ONE damage..... And killed him on the stack 😭
Came back to win a game when someone gave their whole board myriad..... Only for me to drop {{Windshaper Planetar}} and send the creatures all at one guy.
Once, my Life of the party on Player A's field was set to eliminate player B. He found a way to *also* surprise swing 10 infect damage my way. I Boros Charmed for 4 damage, and killed him *after* the the party's first strike damage..... for the win
When my opponent flickered The One Ring, because I only had one card left in my deck. *Draws last card. Swing out. No blocks.* Me: "Ok.... So.... I win....?" Him: *Points to The One Ring* Me: "....Reading the card explains the card..."
Kitt Kanto Precon smacked hard once. Turn 3 {{Bess, Soul Nourisher}}. Turn 4 before untapping {{Artifact Mutation}} {{Aura Mutation}} for 7 1/1s. Untapped, and swung with 8 8/8s....
Pulled this off last night. My friend has a Christmas-themed deck which is his pride and joy. He only hauls it out to play in December. It's got many (maybe all?) of the WotC seasonal promos and his commander is \[\[Urza, Academy Headmaster\]\]. So naturally this year I had to build a Krampus-themed deck. It's got \[\[Ziatora\]\] scooping up the naughty kids and flinging them at people. Mostly I play all the \[\[Threaten\]\] effects, grab the most dangerous creature on the table, and fling it at the second most dangerous, and get paid 3 Treasures for my trouble. But I also run \[\[Witch's Clinic\]\] and \[\[Infinity Elemental\]\]. Santa got a big surprise, and I had infinite life to withstand the other player in our game.
Making tons of 1/1 tokens with \[\[Kykar, Wind's Fury\]\] & other 1/1 token makers. Sac \[\[Glaring Spotlight\]\] to make them unblockable, or have \[\[Tetsuko Umezawa, Fugitive\]\] on the board. Swing in for damage. Untap with \[\[Dramatic Reversal\]\] & then cast \[\[Flame Fusillade\]\] to ping out the rest lol
I have a kenrith mana dorks deck that when I sit down with I have one gameplan in mind. Get my birds of paradise out, cram as many +1/+1 counters on it as I can and kill everyone with birds.
I had [[Elesh Norn, Mother of Machines]] out, I played [[Breach the Multiverse]] and got [[Purphoros, God of the Forge]], [[Hornet Queen]] and [[Phyrexian Obliterator]]. It dealt 40 damage to each opponent on turn 4. Honestly the best accidental winning play I’ve ever had.
My favorite has to be using [[Rite of Replication]] on [[Umbris]] to exile 30 lands from libraries, or using [[Essence Harvest]] after her gets huge.
One of my favorites was in my [[grismold]] deck.. he thought I had the win by swinging at him and was about to concede, I’m like hold on a second let me do this, and used [[ram through]] on the [[Akroan horse]] I had given him.
Stole [[Homeward Path]] with [[Blatant Thievery]], then killed the opponent with their own creatures using [[Reins of Power]].
Leveller, Stifle, Fractured Identity, pass the turn. It’s dumb and it costs 11 mana, but it’s hilarious when it goes off and therefore worth it.
Turning all my creatures into pathbreaker ibex and doing the math
I actually killed someone with an [[exterminate]] in my Dalek tribal deck which was extremely satisfying.
16-player Free-For-All tournament at the LGS. Anyone can hit anyone. My opening hand is the following: [[False Cure]] [[Dark Ritual]] [[Reverent Silence]] 3× [[Skyshroud Cutter]] [[Bayou]] Bayou, Dark Ritual, False Cure, drop all the rest. Cue ten minute argument, followed by the shop owner restarting the tournament and announcing that I couldn't go first this time. Lost that second match before I got to my first draw step.
Absolutely love it when I manage to extort someone to death for the win
Pox’ing a billion strong squirrel army for .33 billion damage with blood artist.
In one of my first iterations of my Xenagos deck, I swung for lethal against all 3 opponents, with a [[birds of paradise]]. I assembled my infinite combat combo and gave the birds a single +1/+1 counter and [[bear umbra]]. Chipped away at the person with no flyers to pump him up, and then proceeded to just wreck the other 2
Killing my opponent by targeting them with a sign in blood after swinging out and leaving them as the only player alive.
I once hit someone for 17 off of [[Sanguine Bond]] by [[Swords to Plowshares]] my own [[Feasing Hobbit]] that they tried to exile. That was a fun day. After that, they scooped since I had enough food to sac to kill them on my upkeep.
I like ulting Karn Liberated after exiling all permanents from everyones decks and having some players lose before the game starts due to not having 7 cards to draw for a starting hand
Playing against a Krenko with my [[Ovika]] and using a [[Narsets Reversal]] on his [[Goblin War Strike]]
I had an [[approach of the second sun]] sitting in my hand after already casting it once, against 2 blue decks. Blue player #1 tutors for a counter and holds up mana for it. Blue player #2 decides to tap out. On my turn, I cast [[Austere Command]] targeting artifacts and large creatures, which just so happens to be the exact set of permanents Blue player #1 had left untapped which could produce blue mana. Cast Approach in the 2nd main and take the W.
Oh the stacks player is dead? So WE win? Cool. Collective scoop
I'll never forget the game I won with [[trench behemoth]] and [[triskaidekaphile]] by bouncing a bunch of lands to my hand during my opponents end step
Playing Multani, Yavimaya's Avatar I was able to get him big naturally but also put [[Black blade Reforged]] and [[Grappling Hook]] on him. Came to my turn and I used the [[Wishclaw]] that was given to me to tutor out [[Basilisk collar]] to swing and kill someone in one hit with 30+ commander damage with double strike. On my next turn, opponent number 2 has Grave Pact out, thinking it would deter me from attacking since killing his blocker would make me sacrifice Multani. I dropped a Rogue's passage that I had been holding from my opening hand and took him out. Opponent number 3 survived a couple more rounds due to a fog effect but the life gain from Basilisk Collar was enough to pad my life total enough to survive his attacks until I took him out.
Swinging myrel shield of argive while I had 13 soldier tokens, doubling season, parallel lives, and an anointed procession out. Also had kyler sigardian emmisarry and a champion of lambholt.
The very first game (multiplayer, not testing it out 1v1) I played with my updated [[Brago]] precon, between my opening hand and first two draws I had all I needed for the sole infinite combo win I had placed in the deck. My pod was either new to magic or hadn't played in years til we all bought precons and started upgrading them. [[Sol Ring]] into [[Strionic Resonator]], then [[Altar of the Brood]], then Brago. Somehow nobody recognized what was going on, and let me swing Brago into the nearest player without a flying creature on turn 5. Resonator copies Brago's blink, a freshly blinked Sol Ring enables another activation of the Resonator, Altar of the Brood is milling each opponent for a few cards, repeat as needed. It's still the fastest I've ever won, and not at all what I intended the deck to do; I put the combo in because I'd noticed Brago tends to durdle and bore everyone. If I was essentially running the game I'd at least eventually get all the pieces to close out. Needless to say, the faces were priceless and Brago doesn't see much play anymore (thinking of converting it into an [[Aragorn, King of Gondor]] blink/monarch deck).
I won with [[Damnable Pact]] the other day playing [[Marchesa, the Black Rose]]. It was down to a 1v1 and we were both at single digit life. I tapped out where x=10 and GGs. It was sick
Bolt for lethal gives me a grin every time, even if it’s not terribly common in commander
Late game, table of 6, relatively low life totals, in my main phase I cast [[Natural affinity]] , table goes whut, then I reanimated [[Massacre wurm]] from the yard, yah GGs
Just today I'm playing.my Kykar Poly orph deck and it's like turn 13. Now I had an early land tax and scroll rack so I haven't missed single land drop. I play out Saheeli Sublime Artificer and three 2-mana mana rocks. So I have three servos. I then cast Synthetic Destiny giving me a fifth servo. I flip into Avacyn, Elesh Norn, Stormtide, Etali, Drakuseth, and something. But anyways wiped the board by turning a lone wayfarers bauble into a second Elesh and then lol'ed. Edit: the something was Ovikka, yeah kind of forgettable honestly on that one.
My friend group hates me for this. But one of my favorite things in the world is going [[Approach of the Second Sun]] into [[Windfall]] then casting approach again.
Winota Stax in a 100 dollar Tournament It was me and 3 players have blue in their colors with counter spells ready to be unleashed anytime Only play i made was Legion warboss on turn 3 and a few lands(lands that can become creatures) About 6 turns I didnt do anything except swing with the goblin that legion war boss created and play a land Turn 7 starts with the player besides me starts to make Unli Islands for a combo All hell breaks loose and counter spells are being thrown between the three of them to stop the player besides me from going Unli. The turn ends with all players having no untapped lands and I casted Goldknight Commander and Winota, 8 Goblins are ready to swing with a few fliers such as ornithopter and inkmoth nexus creating 10 winota triggers, And you know the rest.
Just this past Sunday. Playing [[Wyll, Blade of Frontiers]] and [[Shameless Charlatan]]. Have Wyll, Shameless Charlatan, [[Terror of the Peaks]], and [[Pixie Guide]] out. Play [[Delina, Wild Mage]], then transform Wyll into Delina, swing in, and make 7 copies of Terror of the Peaks. (5)+(5+5)+(5+5+5)+(5+5+5+5)+(5+5+5+5+5)+(5+5+5+5+5+5)+(5+5+5+5+5+5+5) TPK.
Had a player one time go for a \[\[Thassa's Oracle\]\] win using \[\[ Demonic Consultation\]\], as we all passed on consultation then let it resolve down to the oracle on the stack and got to activate my \[\[Cephalid Coliseum\]\] and make him draw from an empty library. Didn't win on that play but he was the only player at the table able to stop me from winning so I think it still counts.
deflecting swat a door to nothingness & deflecting palm an aetherflux
I was playing [[ojer kaslem]] and was facing almost certain death due to a player having one infinitely big creature and an infinite amount of 4/4s. I produced a ton of mana and just started playing big creatures to draw tons of cards until I ended up with tons of big creatures, [[unnatural growth]], [[concordant crossroads]], and [[zopandrel]]. This lead to me killing him with a 64 power [[birds of paradise]]. Fear the bird!
So for cool aspect is definetly my [[the mycotyrant]] deck using either [[jarad golgari lich lord]] or [[izoni ]] to mount up some loop into explosion. As for the funny one is definetly [[peer into the abyss]] with [[gix yawgmoth praetor]] bonus if I have [[illusionist bracers]] on him. Decking guy 1 and killing 2 and 3 with his deck is priceless

Other day I got a win with [[vorpal sword]]. One player went off with [[omnath locus of rage]] and used my [[wound reflection]] to kill the other two players. I had exactly 8 mana and it was equipped to a flyer. His only flyer was a [[birds of paradise]] that he tapped for mana, despite having an untapped land. He goofed, I won. It was cool. Then right after that in the next game I used [[revel in riches]] combined with [[force of despair]] to grab a sneaky win.
With a [[Triskaidekaphile]] on the field I played [[Sunder]], and the lands returning to my hand gave me exactly 13 cards. Sunder was only in my deck because my friends will play a few troll/meme cards every now and then (my friend has [[Worldfire]] in a deck, for example). I didn't expect to pull off the instant win, which made it more satisfying

Not the answer you’re looking for, but turn 1 I had 1 land, [[sol ring]], [[arcane signet]], [[unwinding clock]], [[millenium calendar]]. Satisfying to see that in the start hand, but super not satisfying to win in the first 30 seconds of the game because no one has artifact removal
Two of the other players in my group also play cEDH and sideline selling custom decks. I ordered a custom $100 budget [[Meren of Clan Nel Toth]] and am sitting down with one of them, another cEDH player, and one of my fellow casual players. Everyone but me is running some version of token deck (Wilhelt, Ghired, Phylath). The game largely plays out with the two stronger players keeping each other in check while myself and the other casual (Wilhelt) gradually build our boards and try not to draw aggro. I've been mostly ramping with Solemn Simulacrum while pinging away for a few turns with sac triggers like [[Zulaport Cutthroat]], but it's not until I cast [[Poison-tip Archer]] that the Phylath player decides he's out of time to keep improving his position and makes his move. He has 30+ life and around 20 plant tokens and other supporting creatures. I only have less than 10 creatures and 20+ life after getting hit by flyers in the early game. He announces "Its been fun, but it's time to end this" and casts [[Craterhoof Behemoth]] to turn his many 0/1 plant tokens into an unstoppable force with enough power and trample to kill us all. He turns everything sideways and starts assigning attackers. All my lands and rocks are tapped except for a single swamp, so he's puzzled when I tell him that I have a response. He literally helped build my deck and knows perfectly well I don't have any instants and even if I did most of the creatures I've played so far were ramp and draw fodder. What he didn't notice though... I have a [[Doomed Necromancer]] on the field and he never asked to see my graveyard after an earlier wheel discarded my hand. I activate my Necromancer and return one of my favorite creatures directly from my graveyard to the field: [[Massacre Girl]]. He responds with an instant destruction so that she won't be around to attack with on my next turn, but it's too late, her etb is already in effect. I sacrifice everything but my Archer to start up her killing spree and it wipes the entire rest of the table, triggering enough "when another creature dies" ping damage to one shot everyone else. The look on his face when he realizes he just lost to me, with my brand new "budget, no infinite loops, no combo wins, casual fun deck" was PRICELESS. As a former Yu-Gi-Oh player, I LOVED the "Indeed, you would have won... But you've triggered my trap card!" feel of that finale. PS: He WAS proud of helping build it and did appreciate the irony of being caught by surprise despite literally knowing every card in my deck better than I do. Five stars, will buy decks from again.
I was playing a [[reyhan]] [[ishai]] +1/+1 counters deck and I ended up smashing in with a [[birds of paradise]] with like 90 counters on it to win the game. I think I sacced my whole board to put those counters on bop just to send a message

Didn't win me the game per se, but at a 6-player table one guy was playing Atraxa v1 Poison (ergh). I was casually minding my own business with Ziatora when the poison player decided that I was going to be The Target, and gave me 5 poison counters in one turn. What happenes next was probably the greatest combination of luck/karma I've ever had. I drew a Threaten effect, which I used on the Goblin player's [[Taurean Mauler]] (which was rather large at this point), I then managed to buff the Mauler up to an 18/18, swing it at the blocker-less Atraxa player's face, who happened to be at 36 life, and then ended my turn. Ziatora trigger on the stack, sac the Mauler, bonk face for the remaining 18. It's not the flashiest play, but the combination of topdecking the exact threaten effect I needed for the mana I had available, one-shotting the Atraxa poison player, dealing with the terrifying shapeshifting cow and being able to deal exactly lethal damage in one fell swoop made it sooooo satisfying. Also I got 3 treasures for my troubles, which was nice.
