Deck Challenge: Surprise

My challenge for all of you is to build a deck in standard that can take out your opponent by surprising him somehow. Here's my version:

I buff a creature into high P/T, and then when my opponent either can't or wont block, *Surprise* :p It suddenly poisons him to death in one hit!

Well, not sure if you call it a Surprise, but it's kinda funny because of exactly how random of a deck it is. Willingly sacrificing all of your creatures to kill off your opponent.

Please comment on the deck. It looks all lonely.

And another one. It's kinda in the works, however, the deck can win on turn 2, before you opponent even has time to cast a spell.

I've run the deck for a while now, though it's been recently modified to include a few SoM cards. Generate a bunch of Eldrazi Spawn and win by pumping up an unblocked spawn. Raid Bombardment softens the opponent up, cast Might of the Masses on an unblocked spawn, then I can sacrifice all other spawn to pay Untamed Might's cost, and finish it off with Fling.

Gigantomancer, Rapacious One, and Asceticism help when the game drags on past turn six.

This deck is based a friends fungus deck, who recently passed away.

Use the fungus cards to get an army of saprolings, then either over run them with Garruk Wildspeaker powering them up, or sacrifice them to kill enemy creatures and buff you your own creatures. That, or BAM! Four Dauthi Warlords, four 4/1 shadow creatures that can be buffed with Thallid Germinator. Or buff Savage Thallid and keep regenerating.

If your opponent is using a life deck, Sorin Markov makes them easier to kill off.

Couple different win conditions that can generally go off the turn you play the finisher.

Actually I did the same, however not only did I run with Tainted Strike, but with Assault Strobe too.

Man, a dual-strike infecting Kiln Fiend is just badass.
