Crazy deck idea!

OK, so the ante cards say, "Remove [this card] from your deck before playing if you're not playing for ante."They don't say you can't build a 60-card deck with them. So, there are 9 ante cards in MTG, for 36 cards. Before playing your friends, remove all of them from your deck, leaving you with 24 cards, 8 of which are islands.

Draw 7 and play as normal. You'll need a Top (or something similar, like Scroll Rack) in your opening hand, but put that out, then a Counterbalance to counter opponent's feeble attempts to stave off their impending amusing doom, and then a Laboratory Maniac, and then a Thought Lash (Or even an Inverter of Truth from the recent Eldrazi set) to end the game on the next turn.

Death via ante!!
