Actually there are some tricks that make it viable in MP.. It just asks to be abused, really.

Care to share them? Desperate Alliance + Loragorn? Happy Meal + Galadrim's Greeting? Balancing out threat with Took and Song of Earendil?

I never said it was impossible, but the players at the table would be playing the game in reaction to your deck, not to their own accord.

@John Constantine

Since the first deck I've seen doing this is not mine I don't feel like I can share anything about it because it could go against its creator's wish.

However, I've built one deck myself who exploits the same concept, even if it does it in a different way.

My deck relies on Advanced Warning to neutralize the engagement problem and Desperate Alliance + Dwarven Tomb + Song of Earendil to deal with threating out; I can post the decklist if you're interested into it.

@C2K

No, those decks are built so that your fellow players will not suffer any negative consequences from that, they will only reap the benefits.

Of course if you want to do that you need a deck completely dedicated to supporting the other players, but it's well worth it if it works.
