Deck Challenge: 1st turn lose

yes you heard me, LOSE

I've seen a lot of first turn win decks being made, but is it possible to lose on the first turn?

If anyone can make a 1st turn lose deck, then I will be extremely amazed:D

you let the other guy start and cast a pact in his turn, don't pay the cost in your turn and loose before even drawing your first card.

Alternative first turn loss with Ad Nauseam for lethal

4xSummoner's Pact
4xIntervention Pact
4xPact of Negation
4xPact of the Titan
4xSlaughter Pact

4x dark Ritual
4x Ad Nauseam
4x Cabal Ritual
4x Lotus Petal
4x Chrome Mox
4x Infernal Tutor
4x Lion's Eye Diamond

Throw in Labratory Maniac ( http://www.wizards.com/magic/tcg/article.aspx?x=mtg/tcg/innistrad/cig# ) from Innistrad for the win. =P

nice idea, though i don't see a way to win on your first turn

Swamp
Dark Ritual
Putrid Imp
Leveler
Laboratory Maniac
Reanimate
Reanimate
=> you've got both out, though you wouldnt draw before your next turn
anyway we're getting offtopic here, this is about losing ;p

True, it'd have to look like:

Swamp
Dark Ritual
Dark Ritual
Buried Alive (Leveler, Laboratory Maniac)
Reanimate
Reanimate
Gitaxian Probe

Definitely a god-hand first turn win. Fun stuff, though.

Anyway, back to 1st-turn losing. =P

How about Swamp, Spoils of the Vault for 1996 World Champion?

Spoils sometimes kills you if you tutor for a card that actually is in your deck!

Pretty interesting...I'm actually thinking of ways you could force a card onto the bottom of your deck--Hideaway, Scry, etc., and then Spoil it, revealing your whole deck and killing yourself. Pretty hilarious!
