Naar Isle is pretty hilarious in my group because the first person to get burned by it always refuses to try and switch because he doesn't want to be the only one taking pain, and this continues with the next person. There ends up being 2-3 people playing chicken with the flame counters. Once we had a whole table burn out from taking 7, 8, 9 damage, leaving the last person in turn order winning by default because by the time death was imminent, no one could manage to roll the die right.
Lethe Lake is similar, although less hilarious (except for the guy with the Dredge deck).

The examples you describe are why planechase is fun and is really underappreciated right now (at least where I am. Having the dynamic of playing chicken on dangerous planes or do you keep to one that benefits you, but your opponents more is a really fun thing to do.
I also play Weiss Schwarz, Chaos, Vanguard and Wixoss.

one of my friends used vindicate on glimmervoid i only won because i was able to pull a land and path my one drop the next turn to re-build my land pool <love it>
Tazeem. I was playing EDH planechase with my friends once (I should add, we switch planes automatically every 3 turn rounds in addition to rolls, and rolls cost 1, 2, 4, 8, etc), and it had become archenemy. I was going to lose unless something happened very soon. Someone rolled, hoping for chaos, and we wound up on Tazeem. My turn, I made the necessary plays for me to survive, leaving enough mana open for just one roll, and I got chaos. Ended up with 15 cards in hand and Reliquary Tower on the field.
Glimmervoid Basin has got to be one of my favorites. I remember one game with my life gain deck: We get to Glimmervoid Basin. My friend has Mycosynth Lattice in play. I have a Disenchant and a Narrow Escape in hand. So I bounce all of my permanents, destroy everyone else's, and then start replaying my hand - with a mono-white life gain deck. Good times.

An 8 player game becomes pure insanity. So much chaos, it's by far my favorite.
