Just had a great win yesterday and thought this would be a good thread to start. So, I had a Tidespout Tyrant turn 2 from Bribery and I played Sol ring/mana crypt infinite combo. Then, I tucked top for Ugin. Played Ugin off infinite, bounced sol ring, shot a player, played Sol ring, bounced Ugin on repeat. Wiped a table of eight on turn two. I know it's against the spirit of EDH but I don't think a planeswalker has ever done more in this glorious format.
In a 1vs1 game, Mimeoplasm vs. Maelstrom Wanderer: dropped a T2 Zur's Weirding, no one drew any more cards (not consistently, anyways), slowly built up with Life from the Loam and Worm Harvest, killed opponent solely by swarming him with 1/1 worms.
I am sitting on 1 life for some reason, as in I don't know why my opponents didn't kill me... in my mono red dragon deck I am basically out of gas I think I have some mana ramp and thats all left on board.
One opponent casts Vela the Night-Clad.. now I am dead basically nothing I can do, any of my opponents creatures leave play I am dead, and they are playing ninjitsu.
Opponent then casts Rite of Replication kicked tapping out, I use the one card I have in hand Wild ricochet making a copy target Vela and killing everyone. Bamn!, my dragon deck throws around a lot of damage so people were half health.
Not bad, OP, but I prefer what I did with Karn instead of Ugin. May not have won the game on the spot, but after a few turns, I was able to restart the game with a ridiculous number of things out. Amusing concession to get, though, for sure.
For my favorite, it's hard to say. I liked taking out 16 players' worth of life with Ad Nauseam Tendrils a lot. Then again, just running someone over with a Xenagos, God of Revels-boosted Vaevictis Asmadi was fantastic too.
Up there would certainly be my infinite-turn Daretti wins. Both times, the Goblin Pope has been able to do lethal general damage to my opponents, so it's hard to for me to top myself in that respect.
Rafiq of the Many Voltron versus Jaya Ballard, Task Mage Spell Sling. not French (The surrender format). The Jaya player won the game by using Hammer of Bogardan on Rafiq before enchantments attached. The final result was a 18 CMC general and an amused crowd.
Not technically a win (my league has timed rounds, I went to time and through extra turns without losing):
The game was down to me (Thraximundar) and one opponent (Nekusar). I was under 5 life. My opponent was doing 6 damage to me each turn. And yet, thanks to multiple copies of Trading Post (my Thrax deck runs Sculpting Steel, Copy Artifact, Phyrexian Metamorph, and Mizzium Transreliquat), I was surviving. That board state basically continued for 10 turns.
For an actual win:
I was playing Maelstrom Wanderer, with Vicious Shadows and Nevinyrral's Disk in play. Someone played Hive Mind. On my following turn, I cast Rude Awakening to turn all lands into creatures, and then blew the disk, killing everyone else with VS triggers. I can count on one hand the number of times I've used that mode of Rude Awakening.
My favorite win was turn 2 I had a 5 or 6 player table scoop in surround sound. Turn 1Mishra's Workshop Sol Ring Smokestack. Turn 2 Assemble the Legion off of a random land Mana Crypt and Mox Opal.
Played Felidar Soverign, someone Oblivion ringed it, and I destroyed the Oblivion Ring just before my turn started. That was the first time I ever won in EDH.
For my favorite, it's hard to say. I liked taking out 16 players' worth of life with Ad Nauseam Tendrils a lot. Then again, just running someone over with a Xenagos, God of Revels-boosted Vaevictis Asmadi was fantastic too.
Storm wins are fun (for you) especially if you avoid infinite storm triggers off stuff like Reiterate/Turnabout. I love playing storm decks that are built to still have a chance of whiffing every time you try. Makes it more exciting.
Hey guys so I've actually moved on from commander on to 60 card decks so I don't have any commander decks.
Anyway I've started my own gameplay channel in which I play games (Magic also)
One of my favorites has to be when a dude swung a Hellkite Tyrant at my friend who only had a sword and a Sol Ring in play. Not thinking much of it and not wanting to lose his flyer he let the damage through. The dude taps out and flashes in Mycosynth Lattice in response and stole all his perms. He passes to my friend who draws and passes to me. I look at my hand and I've got nothing to take care of the dragon. Then in a truly heart of the cards Yu-Gi-Oh moment I draw my card for the turn and its Vandalblast I just burst out with laughter
Well, if he stopped sacrificing permanents you wouldn't actually get a chance to remand your cataclysm. Unless he played incredibly badly and let you know that he was done saccing stuff at a certain point.
Otherwise when he recieves priority to ac a new permanent and chooses not to the cataclysm simply resolves, it's too late for you to remand it at that point.
Not bad, OP, but I prefer what I did with Karn instead of Ugin. May not have won the game on the spot, but after a few turns, I was able to restart the game with a ridiculous number of things out. Amusing concession to get, though, for sure.
How did you manage that? some chain-veil shenanigans?

I've posted this elsewhere before, but it's still my favorite win.
At a five-player table with no one out yet, I was playing Riku of Two Reflections. I had been targeted since the beginning of the game because Riku of Two Reflections (which is a perfectly acceptable reason). I had a Prophet of Kruphix, Riku, and some land on board but an empty library (the Mirko Vosk player had successfully milled my entire library into my graveyard off of a Traumatize, Mind Grind, and other mill) and the rest of the table left me for dead to lose on my draw step.
On my turn, I used Genesis's upkeep trigger to return Eternal Witness from my graveyard to my hand. Still on my upkeep, before proceeding to my draw step, I flashed in the Witness (using Prophet) and copied it (using Riku) to recur Palinchron and Comet Storm from my graveyard, made infinite mana using Palinchron and Riku, and (still on my upkeep) killed the table with an arbitrarily large, multi-kicked Comet Storm. I'm a bad person.
Just the other day a sharuum deck milled everyone's library away. But I had a blightsteel colossus in my deck so I didn't die on my upkeep. One of the cards he milled away was anger so when I cast the blightsteel, it had haste. I swung at the sharuum player for the kill then watched everyone else die during their draw step.
My lgs was at one time infested with good-stuff players, so as a counter to this I built Maralen of the Mornsong ANT. After playing a few games with some of my various decks I got tired of watching them ramp into solitaire.
Pre-game: Won the Die roll, Reveal my commander to a chorus of snickers and haughty comments.
Draw hand of: 3 Swamp, Dark Ritual, Ad Nauseam, Winding Canyons and Lake of the Dead.
Turn 1: Draw Mana Vault. Play a Swamp, cast Dark Rit, Cast Mana Vault, Cast Ad Naus. Proceed to draw a deck full of mostly lands and 0 cost artifacts. Cast free mana rocks and other rituals, Krark-Clan Ironworks and 0 CMC artifacts, sac them all to KCI floating ~80ish mana. Cast Yawgmoth's Will recast rituals and artifacts to KCI for even more floating mana. Cast Tendrils of Agony for storm count of 90.
Somehow they seemed displeased by not getting turns.

that's 36 damage to everyone right? Damn that ridiculous Rite of replication Ricochet is one of my favorite cards aswell
Tidesprout tyrant is nuts, i dont know why arent more people running him!
Really enjoying this thread
I remember Doing earthquake with Hostility on board ,talk about out of nowhere wins in a 5 player game
I also love Repercussion wins..
andthose Prophet of Kruphix mentions.. you don't really have to say how you won, haha
Reminds me of my newborn Yeva
Flashing mana elves in at eot,going infinite on my turn killing everyone with Hurricane or Squallmonger ,Hilarious
You're slacking. I can remember pumping 172 mana into Chameleon Colossus in my Ezuri deck once (without having infinite mana), and that was on top of an overrun from my general and two elf lords in play. So, starting from a 9/9, I doubled his P/T 43 times, putting his P/T on the order of tens of trillions.
My favourite win was Manabond + Trade Routes + Valakut, the Molten Pinnaclex3 + Prismatic Omen with around 20 lands in play. God, that game ended fast....
