Anarchy in Heaven.

Description of deck by its author (quoted):
Okay, basic idea for the deck goes something like this. Most multiplayer games I've been involved in, nobody wants to be too aggressive too early, so many start to accumulate an army in front of them. The first time I played this deck was in a 6 player game. I had evil rats on the other end of the table (back when Plague Rats and Pestilence Rats ruled!), I had faeries next to him complete with Pixie Queen and the Noble, a goblin deck, a white weenie deck, and finally a merfolk deck. Just my luck, only one blue player!! While everyone else had been amassing creatures, I had barely managed to muster up 3 of my own, when I got what I was looking for!! Heaven's Gate and Anarchy in my hand. I waited one more turn, since everyone else was being ´´civil´´ and got a lucky draw.

I produced one of my Shivans, and all of a sudden I could feel the tension rise. I could sense that I had just made myself a target. Lucky for me, nobody felt brave enough to challenge my 5/5 flyer, and on my next turn, I made them all pay. I played Anarchy, which made the weenie deck cringe, until my next move made him and I both get the last laugh, because while the rest of the table laughed at his misfortune of losing every one of his precious white creatures, I played a Heaven's gate and targeted EVERYONE's creatures but my own. Rat boy looked like I just stole his lunch money.

The Pixie Queen was dethroned in a flash of red and white. 3 Lords of Atlantis and 2 Goblin Kings bit the dust along with their fishy/verminous hordes. Blue boy thought he had saved the day when he screamed for all the chaos to stop and produced a Counterspell. Everyone smiled and praised him while giving me evil glares and vowing to avenge their near misfortunes, when I only added more fuel to the fire by countering his Counterspell with a Pyroblast. And then I proceeded to beat him down with my Shivan Dragon. I managed to mop up 3 of the 5 players, and took a beating of my own from the goblin horde that remained. But I think that even a 2nd place finish was well worth the look on their faces when all their armies were wiped out in 2 card plays.

I haven't played a big multiplayer game in forever though, so this deck doesn't see much action anymore. But the few times it does, it always causes a chuckle or two.
