What's the best modern turn 1 you've actually pulled off?
Mine?
Mutavault into a Springleaf Drum , play a Memnite tap the Memnite for red, play a Goblin Guide , swing for two.
It sets you up for another 5 damage on turn 2, pulling your opponent down to 13.

Verdant Catacombs into Overgrown Tomb into Thoughtseize .
Starting the game at 15 FTW.

Though back in the day it was just Verdant Catacombs into Swamp into Deathrite Shaman , but apparently that's too powerful.

The best turn one I've had is:
Cyle Street Wraith , draw Simian Spirit Guide , with one already in hand making two
Cyle Street Wraith , draw Overgrown Tomb
Cyle Street Wraith , draw Beast Within
Play the Overgrown Tomb untapped, use both Simian Spirit Guide s to play Violent Outburst to Living End turn one putting my 3 Street Wraith s into play.

I played with the Goryo's Vengeance deck a while back, which is capable of the god hand that kills with triple Griselbrand attack on turn one. I never got that hand though.
The slightly more consistently amazing turn ones come from Amulet of Vigor /Hive Mind combo though, which I've played with way more extensively and actually achieved a few times. It goes like this;
Simian Spirit Guide for R into Amulet of Vigor .
Simic Growth Chamber , untap, tap for mana, bounce, cast Summer Bloom .
Simic Growth Chamber three more times, cast Hive Mind .
Summoner's Pact for anything.
Opponent dies on upkeep.

On the draw against tron, drop Ghost Quarter hitting a tron land, pay 2 life for Surgical Extraction . Laugh manically.

Play Ghost Quarter If you're on the play then wait till your opponent plays a land then ghost quarter it. If you're on the draw then just go ahead and ghost quarter that land!Proceed to cast 4x Archive Trap Laugh while your opponent draws their last card.
