Speaking of anonymity....
I am a super secret foreign spy.
I can't tell you guys which country- that would ruin everything about my job.
Also that photo may or may not be me.
Trust me guys. I know lots of spy things.
I even said I am a spy so obviously I am a spy.
When playing my Sharuum deck in multi... Every single spell I resolve. It pisses me off lol
I know the feeling, I play Sharuum as well, and as soon as I drop Mycosynth Lattice, I get the looks. Then Darksteel Forge, and I get rushed. The Nev Disk and it's like everyone else does *epic facepalm* in unison.
I don't even have to assemble the combo, I still get those kinds of reactions anyway <_<.
Earthcraft often draws the hate (or at least a removal spell).
Rebound often makes me the target, too, but more literally.
That last one made me laugh. I had a similar experience when one of my opponents played Time Stretch. This was fairly late in the game, and I was playing my Wort, the Raidmother deck. I first played Wild Ricochet conspired to take 6 turns, then conspired and buybacked a Reiterate twice to bring the number to 10 turns in total
This leads me on-topic, because plays like these make sure my general never stays around for long
I usually don't tutor for Gaddock Teeg in my Sisay deck in multiplayer because almost all the time it's going to severely hose everyone else at the table, and obviously as a result turn me into Public Enemy #1.
just playing Jhoira of the Ghitu usually does it a lot - even though I swear on everything holy - and unholy - I don't run stupid stuff like Obliterate (though I've had people tlel me the deck was hugely more stupid than suspend, boom)
Thought Reflection is a biggie now. At first, everyone didn't care that I suspended Thought Reflection and Wheel of Fortune at the same time. I was sitting there wanting to see how fast I would die. Instead everyone goes "oooh, I get 7 cards!!!!1111one awesome! I was flabbergasted. ....now they do try to kill me asap when they see that card (and $&*@ well should!)
I'm also starting to find any deck that plays blue is intensely disliked. What people don't realize is that I'll be saving them from Uril, but they only care about what might happen if I get to 10 mana.

So the appropriate response is for your opponents to wait until you have the Every-Turn-Clearing-Everyone's-Board-But-Mine completely assembled?
Getting jumped by others in order to prevent that combo isn't "mean," it's people doing the sensible thing and preventing the continuous boardwipe before it starts.
On the main Topic: Sygg, River Cutthroat decks always get jumped around here. Having a general that says "If you attack anyone but me, I get benefits!" has a really simple solution: attack the person with that General out.
Survival of the Fittest, though I tend to be a target when I sit down for multiplayer anyway.

True story...
The latter moreso for our play group, but they'll both do it. Soul Warden and Essense Warden often will illicit some groans too, but I have a friend who plays a token deck. LD of any kind had a tendancy to annoy people significantly too.

Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker makes Me a target when I bring My goblins to the multiplayer table, mostly coz the guys I play with know the deck is built around combos with Him.
For me, it tends to be Brion Stoutarm when I have 2 mana open, one of which is red. Almost always means I have a Phyrexian Dreadnought in my hand. 12 damage and a 24 life swing in total makes a big difference even in EDH. Add a Hamletback Goliath for some lulz.
I'd have to say Dragon Broodmother draws the most hate of any single card. Of course, it might live a few turns, anyway. It just depends on the board state.
When i lay down Dream Halls, everyone starts gunning for me. But then it's often to late :P. I usually don't tutor after it though, it makes me feel cheesy inside. Anyways, people start hitting me from the start of anyway, so when i get to low i just have to go get it. When conflux and Progenitus starts going off they all start panicking, while i smile in glee at their puny attempts mwah! ^^,.
Master Transmuter paints a huge target on me. Most people know what it does so they have one turn to get rid of it or else they know something big is coming out of my hand the next turn. But i usually dont play Master Transmuter unless i have a Thousand Year Elixir out at the same time.

Teeg is like the epitome of an anti-EDH card

Gaddock Teeg - I agree, you're totally asking for it. I'll go ahead and add Kataki, War's Wage, Hokori, Dust Drinker - and Crovax and/or Kamahl.
I'm also starting to find any deck that plays blue is intensely disliked. What people don't realize is that I'll be saving them from Uril, but they only care about what might happen if I get to 10 mana.

Its usually the go to target until someone pisses someone else off more than the potential to steal, counter or combo out.
In another deck, it is Confusion in the Ranks. That deck's general is Norin the Wary. Spellshock is in the same deck, and it draws MUCH hatred.
These cards draw so much hate.
Jace Beleren draws hate in my meta if you happen to be selfish when he hits play.
