On the worst card thread, we were talking about {Darksteel Relic}. However, you can have a 5/5 indestructible first turn. This is with {Phylactery Lich}. First turn: {Swamp} {T} and then {Dark Ritual}. Afterwards play {Darksteel Relic} and {Phylactery Lich}. Put the counter on the {Darksteel Relic}. Is there any way for a better creature first turn.
Lol yes.
There are a million ways for a better creature lol. Pick like any huge creature ever, first turn {dark ritual} to {entomb} and {reanimate} it, boom.
Oddly yes, swamp, {Dark Ritual}, {Thoughtseize} or {Pain // Suffering}, {Exhume} or {Animate Dead}, or {Reanimate}, whatever creature you discarded, I.e. {Pathrazer of Ulamog}, {Iona, Shield of Emeria}! {Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur}
I a fault pulled this off once in a store tourney back in the day (before the big DCI push). {Swamp}, {Dark Ritual} x3, {Baron Sengir}. Not that impressive nowadays but was enough to make the other guy scoop then.
Why drop a big creature when you can just flash hulk win on turn 1 ?
T1
{Lotus Petal}
{Swamp}
{Dark Ritual}
Sac petal for blue
{Show and Tell} putting {Omniscience} onto the battle field then play {Emrakul, the Aeons Torn}

Hah! I love doing that to people in my EDH deck XD
Then {simian spirit guide} into an {assault strobe}!!!
Best first hand ever. {Dark Ritual} {Dark Depths} {Lotus Petal} {Mox Diamond} {Crimson Wisps} and some sort of land. First turn win. {Vampire Hexmage} sooty forgot about that.
How about {Ancient Tomb} into {Lotus Petal} into {Show and Tell} playing {Emrakul, the Aeons Torn}?
But that doesn't kill them first turn. Maybe {Serra Avatar}.
Or Flash hulk.
Famous for a reason :P
But i guess its not first turn...

That would only give you 7 mana because it would take 1 black to cast each dark ritual from the first.

{Dark Depths} is banned in EDH.
No it's not. Look at the legalities.
Ah I stand corrected. My bad :P

Helloooooo nurse!
Dark ritual, ha! ;) that's fine if you want to be realistic.
Turn one. Island, black lotus for green, {Channel} for 19, giving you (19)GU. Play and activate {Doubling Cube} to have (28)GGUU. Play and activate {Filigree Sages} to untapped the cube. Repeat to double your mana infinitely. With your infinite mana, {Slime Molding} and {Lightning Greaves} gives you an infinite sized attacker.
You said biggest, not most reasonable;). If you have a simian spirit guide or other source of red, replace lightening greaves with {Burst of Speed} and replace slime moulding with {Gelatinous Genesis} for infinite infinite/infinite creatures.
Edit: {Chromatic Sphere}. That's how you get the red mana without using up a card.
If we're being unrealistic i can top that; go second: opening hand- {Mountain} {Sol Ring} x2 {Black Lotus} x4 on draw step you get {Emrakul, the Aeons Torn} play mountain, tap for sol ring, tap for sol ring 1 floating, play 4 lotuses, tap 2nd sol ring and use lotuses for a grand total of 15 mana, cast emrakul.
Taking this further, on the extra turn you get from emrakul you draw {Artillerize} swing with emrakul then tap sol rings and mountain to artillerize, end game

4x black lotus 20x moxx just for the giggles, play {Emrakul, the Aeons Torn} {Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre} {Second Sunrise} until you get what you need. Oh! And {Urabrask the Hidden} to attack first turn.
"players drop all combos listed"
My first turn, flip table and /nerdrage
Insane {howl} of anger
Trample through store knocking everything over
Walk out of store stating you are a legendary mythic creature with 40/40 and haste as you leave.
