Hi there. My friends and I have a deckbuilding challenge to make a deck with a very limited amount of money other than some mana rocks. I wanted to make something original for Queen Marchesa , but I'm running out of ideas. Wanted to see if somebody knows of any original wincons you don't see very often. The deck I have right now is here: Queen of Memes.

plakjekaas: You are my favourite monster. This is hilarious and I love it.
If you actually include Brash Taunter, Blazing Sunsteel is another combo with it: Taunterbis equipped with Sunsteel. Have Taunter receive any damage, both Taunter and Sunsteel trigger. Taunter shoots a player, Sunsteel's additional trigger targets Taunter. Rinse and Repeat.

Yeah I have that in the deck. I even run an Overblaze that I can find with Sunforger for when you don't have the Taunter and you need to oneshot someone. Blazing Sunsteel , Hammer of Nazahn and Overblaze on the same creature taking damage, can keep targeting itself with the Sunsteel, doubling the damage every iteration. That's as much damage as you like on a single target when you break the loop. I once removed an Overloaded Cyclonic Rift from the stack by shooting its owner in the face for 3x2^10-ish damage.

These are really cool. It's exactly the right amount of jank I'm looking for. I really like that barren glory win, too. I'm gonna see if I can make room for these. Thanks, everyone.

I like targeting an Indestructible creature with Arcbond and Gideon's Sacrifice before it takes damage from something, though I usually need Sunforger to consistently do that, which should fit the budget. My Indestructible creature of choice would be Brash Taunter which is a relatively expensive card, but something like Cathar's Companion would work just as well.
When both effects are active on the creature, and it takes any damage, Arcbond will trigger. It will deal that much damage to each other creature and each player, including yourself. This will trigger Gideon's Sacrifice , preventing that damage, dealing it to the creature instead. That will trigger Arcbond again, repeating the process. The loop can't be stopped, and will continue until no players have any life left except yourself.
