Deck Challenge: Cheap Win Deck

In this deck challenge make a deck that causes you to win or your opponent to lose without reducing them to 0 life or 10 poison counters.

Here's an example of what this challenge calls for.

to make this fun, you can only use basic lands and play sets :)

Cards for you to ponder using.
-Door to Nothingness
-Phage the Untouchable
-Platinum Angel

Have fun!

*Edit: Lands are exempt from playset rule in case it wasn't obvious.

Here's a cheap one I built with Epic Struggle awhile ago. Confuses the hell out of some people, lol.

here's one that wins by bringing Phage into play under your opponent's control:

(to make it match your requirements just drop the 2 culling the weak for 2 dark rituals and exchange 2 swamps for 2 additional braids)

i experienced quite a bit with alternative/funny ways to win a couple of days ago and came up with two other decks, though both win by reducing the opponent's life to 0. however as they don't do it by attacking or burn spells you may nonetheless like those decks:

Goblin Bomb + Proliferate

Illusions of Grandeur + Donate/Bazaar Trader

Wow, nice decks guys! :D both are pretty redonculous.

Here's another example I came up with on the fly using "Door to Nothingness"

Made this challenge to see how many different cheap win decks people could make.
So far though the infinite saproling is my favorite here :)

While all of my entries for this can deal damage(not much mind you) none of them actually plan on winning by it.


:manaw:/:manau:/:manar: Painter Servant/Grindstone combo, amusing but shouldn't be winning any tourneys.

:manaw:/:manau:/:manab:/:manag: 36 Lands, who has the awesome win conditions of you scooping, or you decking.

:manaw:/:manab: Poxtraction, it wins by ripping your deck apart piece by piece.

None of your decks count as they don't follow the rules. Try again.

I didn't look at the others, but this deck seems to fit the criteria, so why can it not be used to answer this thread?

Otherwise it'd be fine. Limitations make challenges harder and more fun impo.

What do you mean by "play sets" tough?

[QUOTE=Seras]What do you mean by "play sets" tough?[/QUOTE]

A play set means having 4 of 1 card (meaning having the maximum number of that card in your deck, this doesn't apply to basic lands though).

So when I say only use play sets, if you add a card there needs to be 4 of that card in the deck.

Hope that explanation helps

An artifact combo involving Platinum Angel, Indomitable Archangel, and Phyrexian Metamorph. Had a friend use Metamorph on the Archangel once, so I thought it'd be a cool idea to throw Platinum Angel in there.
