{Medomai the Ageless} {Illusionists Bracers} {Strionic Resonator} times 4 {Artisan of Forms} and any instant for a ton of turns. Five turns are obvious. Medomai hits then Strionic resonators get activated for 5 extra turns. The rest of them might not be so obvious. Equip the Illusionists Bracers to the  Artisan. You swing with the Artisan, then throw the instant at it and copy the Medomai. Then trigger all the crap again for an extra five turns after the five turns you had just gotten. So now you have a total of 9 more turns. If the opponent doesn't give up there I don't think they ever will...

Lotleth troll - underworld Cerberus - xenagod - whip

Don't really need whip but most people forget cerb needs to have 3 blockers, using lotleth troll to discard it to GY

Having xenagos out allows for a 12 damage swing if you decide to bring back cerb with whip, usually ending the game

Hate to burst the bubble but it doesn't work like the ability on {Medomai the Ageless}  states to take a turn after this one so even if u triggered it 20 times you would only get 1 extra turn

the above is not correct. each time you can get medomais trigger to resolve will result in another turn. http://www.reddit.com/r/magicTCG/comments/1tt66k/question_about_medomai_the_ageless/

That being said odds are if you have those two on the board you can close the game in a couple turns. Cruel, but good.
