Is there anyone out there who uses cards like Swamp Mosquito, that give your opponent poison counters? I don't really know much about which cards came out when, but mine looks sort of ancient.

but I did have one that used:

diseased vermin's, dwarven warrior's, swamp mesquito's, bone dancer's, maddening imp's, lightning bolt's, fanning the flames's, can't remember any more but yeah I used them pretty frequently when that and millstone were the only alternet ways you could win a ton of people had fun with alternate win conditions. nowadays it's almost ridiculous how many different things you have to worry about your opponent doing(especially in casual)

this reminds me of a friends deck he made it used donates and transcendance to win. the rest of the deck was filled with stuff like congragate and reward the faithful. when people started dealing themselves mana burn to stay below 20 life I can't remember if he took it apart or tried to throw in crumbling sancuary.

This is a deck I built to go against a friends Elf deck. He had the bad taste to gain ungodly amounts of life.

4x Crypt Cobra
4x Marsh Viper
4x Pit Scorpion
4x Sabertooth Cobra
2x Serpent Generator
4x Suq'Ata Assassin
4x Swamp Mosquito
4x Taunting Elf
4x Regeneration
2x Aluren
4x Dark Ritual

4x Llanowar Wastes
4x Pine Barrens
6 Forest
6 Swamp

All this deck does is make creatures that give poison counters. You can quickly bring them to 10 counters even without seeing more than two or three creatures.
