Stuff like Shahrazad having you play a side game, Karn making you restart, Aeon engine reversing the turn order, Chaos Orb, goblin game, etc.

I've got a really half-baked idea to just throw all of these wacky cards into a deck to see what happens. Not expecting it to be good, just a fun thing to throw into the mix once in a while for casual play.

Sticking to "real" cards, no need to dip into the un-sets, they've made plenty of strange cards over the years.

Perhaps not weird, but I love doubling the double of the double of the double to cook up some just ludicrous numbers. Yes, you may only have 40 life, but I'm hitting you for 78,125 damage. Because.

So cards like Isenguard Unleashed, Furnace of Rath, City on Fire.... Y'know what, here's my decklist, it'll be faster: https://moxfield.com/decks/IDBXvzYTHUy_2RZWiDPQuQ

I also love The Cheese Stands Alone. Never played it, and wouldn't enjoy playing it even if I did have a deck built around it. I just love the art. Makes me smile every time. https://gatherer.wizards.com/UG/en-us/2/the-cheese-stands-alone
