Cheating the Cheating cheater Cheatyface into play in EDH
Commander (EDH) forum
Posted on April 3, 2016, 7:48 a.m. by trinitok
Anyone got any good funny ways to cheat Cheatyface into play for EDH? I already know the story of hiding them behind lands and then swinging. I am wondering if there are any other funny ways. I have quite a few copies and would love to get a good laugh out of them.
Thank you again for taking your time to read, consider and answer my question.

If you play at a LGS late at night you could ask one of the employee to turn out all the lights and then shove them onto the table. Or if playing EDH is like how my group plays just wait till someone makes a big play then sneak them in right before everyone starts scrambling for answers to that big threat.

Keep your commander in a hardcase. You can cram about 5 Cheatyfaces behind your commander. Once you cast it, wait about five seconds then casually pull all of them out and laugh.
Also attach Cheatyface to the back of all your tokens. Then play something like Secure the Wastes

Because of the color of Cheatyface, I want to play it in my Sen Triplets competitive deck. Those tournament bastards will never see it coming muahahaha!
It is also worth noting that I do have a copy for each card in the deck. So 100 Cheatyfaces total.
As Wildsong has requested, here is the deck that I will be using them in:

Read about it on reddit. The playgroup decided to make a no banlist day and on guy proxied his complete deck (proxies were allowed too). That guy countered all thread and at some point began to reveal all the cheatyfaces he had hidden behind the proxies :D (apparently he decided to buy cheatyfaces directly after they decided to do these days without banlist)

Just want to say thank you all who have read, considered, and responded.
Yoshi400x7, I believe I have to do it discreetly. So asking them to turn off the lights and then me scrambling to rush them all out might be a little obvious. Especially when I make all the noise. All the same, I'm sure everyone would get a good laugh out which is the main objective.
lemmingllama, I do like this idea, but my main EDH deck doesn't really run many tokens. Not that your strategy is bad. I will definitely do this on the casual kitchen table Tuesday nights. But I still need a spot for the other 85-95 or so :/
AlexoBn, I have scoured the reddit as well. That is where I found the story of hiding it in lands. Although, you have given me an idea to just kinda leave counter spells or other instants/sorceries out on the board since I don't run many creatures. I could then just swing with those muahahaha!

The only time I pulled it off was by hiding them under a token, I set the stack on the corner of my mat so it was technically in play and just casually knocked the stack over on turn two (so I could argue they've been on the battlefield for an entire turn).
