I can't remember the exact series of plays, but my hand was nuts lategame in a 6 way free for all. I was playing Wort, the Raidmother; I conspired Skyshroud Claim I believe, conspired Early Harvest, entwined Tooth and Nail to fetch Eternal Witness and Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker, Witness grabbed Early Harvest, I conspired Early harvest again, then copied Witness with Kiki-Jiki, grabbed Earthquake and killed all of us simultaneously. Honestly, I think I could have won that game as I still had Anarchist, Restock, Memory Jar, and Banefire in hand, but two-and-a-half hours was long enough for me.
Was playing my Rat Deck and my friend was playing my Soldier Deck. He had Elspeth, Knight-Errant at 6 Counter, and Darien, King of Kjeldor, with quite a bit of land, including Ancient Tomb and Vesuva that had copied the Tomb, so was making mass Soldier tokens. He has his General fly over with Elspeth's ability, putting her at 7. Now it's my turn.
Again, I have 3 creatures, Diseased Vermin with no counters, Nezumi Graverobber (flipped), and Ravenous Rats. For land, I only have 3 Snow-Covered Swamps, but have Scroll Rack, Extraplaner Lens already in play, Gauntlet of Power, and Altar of Shadows with 1 counter on it. So with B[/aRd]PERRoUndfRomAltaR,PlUSlandtHatPRodUCE[mana]BBB each. The first thing I do is activate Scroll Rack after the draw, I had been seeing the same cards all game as it was down Turn 2, but I finally got a new card, Decree of Pain. I tap all 3 lands, bringing my pool up to 9xB, 8 of it thrown into Decree of Pain. Now I know my next 4 cards won't help me, as I just put them down there, but there are 8 creatures going to the graveyard right now. The last 2 cards I draw are a Nezumi Ronin and a Snow-Covered Swamp I drop my land and play the Ronin.
On his turn, he resummons [card[Darien, King of Kjeldor[/card], brings Elspeth up to 8 while making a new token. Being tapped out, he has to pass the turn, and I've kept his cards in hand down to a minimum. On my turn, I draw a land, play it, so able to produce a total of 16xB per round. 5 goes to Marrow-Gnawer, for the Ronin to attack through to Elspeth, but before my attack phase, I cast Sadistic Sacrament (1 of 2 proxies in this deck, until I get them both from the new set), with it's kicker. First thing I target is all the equipment, then whatever spells that may be a problem. Even without knowing the deck, I can already deal with creatures just fine, it's the other things I have to be wary of.
With that, though, the game was over. He had been sitting on Stonehewer Giant, waiting for Elspeth to crack and give indestructibility to his things, then of course pull Worldslayer with Stonehewer Giant.
Moral of the story, lucky 'top deck' Decree of Pain is <3
Did you play a land on turn 4? Because I count only 5 available swamps on turn 4 to blow up two non-basics.

I was playing my Rith deck in a 1v1 my friend Kyle was using his new mono-R Ashling deck. So my deck starts out the way it's supposed to, when turn 5 it gets STUPID for him. I drop Mana Reflection on T-5, then pass the turn. He gets in another swing with Ashling, I happily smile and nod. My T-6, I untap, then tap ten mana worth of permanents to play ENTWINED Tooth And Nail for what else? Well, the same thing that any casual Timmy-sized Naya deck would search out, of course; Darksteel Colossus and Godsire! Unfortunately he managed to kill Godsire with a Jaws of Stone and some other effect on his turn, but then my next turn I top deck...Rage Reflection, and beat for 22. He passes his turn, knowing he's in dire straights, then I play Behemoth Sledge on my next turn, equip on DSC...and swing for 26 lifelink trample damage FTW.
There was another game I played(a fourway) where I got an early Summoner's Egg out(with DSC imprinted), and I had Rith equipped with Skullclamp. The BW player Damnation, I draw two cards for Clamp, pops the Egg for DSC, the other two players facepalm at DSC, then the BW player...just happens to have a Path in hand for DSC. V_V Epic fail lol. It was still so awesome to actually see that come out like that.
I was playing Lim-Dul (won't even try to card tag him). Board state is this:
Me: Puppeteer Clique.
Next Player: Clone of ...something (General is Niv Mizzet)
Next Player: Nothing on the board, but tons of dragons (including Karrthus) in his gravyard. His general is Scion of the Ur-Dragon.
On dragon player's turn, he casts Living Death, getting all his dragons back...with haste. My Clique persists back, gets the Niv Mizzit player's Clone out of the GY, cloning Karrthus. I has all dragons, both Karrthus' die. I eliminate two players next turn with 35+ power worth of dragons...then win the game with Yawgmoth's Will + Corrupt + Mirari.
Last night I was playing with some friends when one of them discarded a storm herd to compulsion. I saw my chance and used mystical teachings to hunt down an EOT memory plunder, I then proceeded to kill everyone with 36 pegasi, starting on turn 6/7

True story...
I was playing a game today, Iona vs Sharuum. Its turn 6 or so and I've just tapped out put to play Iona, I've got Dust Bowl on the table ready to blow up Tolarian Academy next turn and Oblivion Ring in hand to deal with the Darksteel Colossus He played last turn. He starts His turn 7, Tops and doesn't like whats there, Plays Mystical Tutor to dig up Rite of Replication, flips the top to get the rite and plays it kicked giving Him 6 Colossus's (Colossi?) on turn 7. Needless to say i didn't live through His turn 8! The really sad part is I had the Enlightened Tutor in hand to get the Painter's Servant next turn and the top to flip to get the Painter into My hand to play it so I could lock Him out!

I'm assuming you named white or black with Iona?
Either way, I would have named blue to choke off the majority of his spells before setting up the Painter lock.
A player in my EDH playgroup used the Earthcraft/Squirrel Nest combo to get 4,000 squirrels.(That was the number he chose) Next came my turn. I was using my Rhys, the Redeemed deck, and i played Divine Congregation, targeting the squirrels and gained 8,000 life. The next player then destroyed the Squirrel Nest and cast Wrath of God, clearing the board and leaving my life total at 8,000. I thought i was in for a win, but the catch in EDH is general damage and so i was easily taken down after that by Vorosh, the Hunter. Still loads of fun and an awesome game.

in a 4 man last week i was playing crap azami
i ended up haveing 53 cards in my hand thanks to jushi i had control magic on someones sedris(useless but i really hate misdirection when i try to get teferi) on my turn i use fatesticher to untap my flipped jushi when activating his ability 1 time targeting someone so i activate it again targeting the same person making him draw 102 cards
then i cast sleep targeting the only person with dude on the table(scion ur dragon as general) kill the d bag taht has teferi with sedris
scion ur dragon dude does nothing
my turn i flip brine elemental cast basalt monolith and make wake thrasher a 1,000,000,000
Playing Group hug Phelddagrif against Thraximundar & Mayael and the game is getting on. Everyone has seen a good portion of their decks but numerous Wrath effects have been keeping everyone alive. I drew into Hypergenesis but had no permanent cards in hand but decided to suspend it anyway as there were a lot of draw effects going on.
Que three turns of everyone sculpting their hands for a huge Hypergenesis turn. The last turn before it goes off I tap out to find something cool and end up with Wheel and Deal off my last possible draw. I untap, remove the last counter, and in response play the Wheel and Deal. Mayael discards 8 beasts and draws into land and instants/sorceries and Thraximundar gets a Gravepact and land. Their faces were priceless.
There were four of us: Teneb reanimator (me), Thraximundar, Rubinia Soulsinger (enchantments) and Jenara (blink effects).
We were using the Planechase cards (very fun, highly reccommend it). The first one we flipped was Murasa (not sure how to link planes yet). This one reads "Whenever a nontoken creature enters the battlefield, its controller may search his or her library for a basic land card, put it onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle his or her library.
Whenever you roll , target land becomes a 4/4 creature that's still a land."
On turn two, I played a 2nd basic land, followed by Sakura-Tribe Elder (STEve). Murasa gave me a 3rd basic land, and STEve gave me a 4th basic. On turn three, I dropped a 5th basic land and played Karmic Guide targeting STEve. Those two creatures gave me two more basics, and sac-ing STEve gave me my 8th basic land on turn 3.
About 3 other players and I are playing with the planechase cards. I am playing my turboazami deck (i only bring that out when people complain about my non-competitive niv-mizzet or karn deck :P) and end up getting infi mana with gauntlet of power + tolarian + palinchron... really early i might add. Sadly I can't do anything with infi mana right now...except... roll the planechase die as many times as i want:P.
The first plane we switch to is the one when a nontoken creature comes into play under your control you get a basic from deck tapped. I procede to play palinchron a million more times getting all my land out and untapping it all with palinchron. Then we switch to the one where the chaos is you draw a card for each land you control... i cackle maniacally but the first roll I hit is the planeswitch one...damn!
Anywho i am playing with a friendly group in a friendly game so i just leave it on a plane that does mirari's wake for everyones mana. Everyone else is just so annoyed they scoop.
One of the first times ever playing the deck, I had this series of plays:
Brion's in play with a Sigil of the New Dawn, drop a dreadie, tap brion and chuck, use the sigil to return dreadie to my hand and repeat. Ended the turn with 24 more life and able to do it again next turn.
Since this game, NO ONE in my group lets Hammie stick around. That, and dropping him with an Obsidian Battle-Axe in play, followed by a dreadie getting chucked. A 20/19 hasty giant, with a Brion on the field to possibly throw next turn.
That is quite awesome. I have almost never seen an actual Brion Stoutarm deck in action, and it's great to see that it too can do some really nutty stuff :).
So I guess it's time to add to this growing list:
A few nights ago on MWS, I'm playing Maga, Traitor to Mortals and my opponent is playing Rhys the Redeemed. It's pretty late into the game, and my opponent has been able to make a VERY large token army thanks to Thousand-Year Elixir and Gaea's Cradle. I've been managing to stay afloat with cards like Soul Burn and Consume Spirit draining his life and using the life gain to survive through his token army.
My opponent then replays his Rhys and passes the turn. I would tap out to play Maga since I had a huge amount of mana at my disposal, but I would come up 6 life short and then consequently get overrun by all the tokens. I rip a Demonic Tutor off the top and I immediately play it, searching for Decree of Pain. With Reliquary Tower being one of my many lands in play, I was ecstatic to clean out his board and draw oodles of cards which would pretty much end the game extremely quickly. I tap for 8 black and hardcast the Decree. My opponent responds... by activing Rhys once to duplicate his tokens, then untapping her again with Thousand-Year Elixir and tapping his Gaea's Cradle to copy his tokens again!
After counting, he has 72 tokens from the original 18 he had before duplicating them twice with Rhys. I had 68 cards left in my library.
Pauper Cube
I cube, I play EDH, and I can't afford Legacy. The other formats can suck it.
Again, I have 3 creatures, Diseased Vermin with no counters, Nezumi Graverobber (flipped), and Ravenous Rats. For land, I only have 3 Snow-Covered Swamps, but have Scroll Rack, Extraplaner Lens already in play, Gauntlet of Power, and Altar of Shadows with 1 counter on it.

Being tapped out, he has to pass the turn, and I've kept his cards in hand down to a minimum. On my turn, I draw a land, play it, so able to produce a total of 16xB per round. 5 goes to Marrow-Gnawer, for the Ronin to attack through to Elspeth, but before my attack phase, I cast Sadistic Sacrament (1 of 2 proxies in this deck, until I get them both from the new set), with it's kicker.

This next one is one of my favorites, though.
Ashling's Prerogative(set to even), a Hamletback Goliath and Sword of the Ages is in play and untapped. I drop a Storm Herd, swing with 50-odd pegasi, wipe out one player, sac them all to the sword to kill another. Promptly followed by the goliath being flinged and wild ricochet at the 3rd. The ricochet was to get around a Mourner's Shield set to red.
Since this game, NO ONE in my group lets Hammie stick around. That, and dropping him with an Obsidian Battle-Axe in play, followed by a dreadie getting chucked. A 20/19 hasty giant, with a Brion on the field to possibly throw next turn.
