Spoiler for Hidden:
Momentummed adrenastaves is a known, used deck, and Kakerlake made a VERY good one with TU too.
You saw the title has an "impractical" in there, right?

 True, but it is impractical since it is difficult to perform a combo which needs 5 cards from 4 different elements (3 if you consider Animate Weapon an 'other' card). Sometimes or in some decks you can be able to perform it, but how many of these decks really exists and how can it be reliable to draw all these cards without using :time cards?  ;)
 For the same reason, I personally call 'impractical' the Instosis Combo, despite the fact it is one of the most successful decks around.
im·prac·ti·cal/imˈpraktikəl/
Adjective:   
(of an object or course of action) Not adapted for use or action; not sensible or realistic:

If you can use it, especially with success like instosis, it's practical.

 I know what impractical means, however I don't think in this topic is used with its literally sense. It is used as a way to describe an amazing card combo which is possible to be accomplished only in a deck which has been designed for this purpose. There are several examples in here.
For the sake of this thread, I dont think a viable, working OTK counts. These are combos you have to go out of your way to use that have much, much better alternatives

Card combos that end up to be victorious self-repeating patterns, but are unimaginably pointless to achieve.

I actually had that once...

I used to use a creatureless Mindgate deck against Top50. I have Enchant Artefact and Eternity and a Photon in my deck, the Top50 carried the Sanctuary. We would have ended up in a draw (field full of Ray of Lights and glowing dragons and Light Nymphs and Hope + Sanctuary + Shard of Divinity...) if it were not for the stupidity of the AI.

To be fair, throw in a few Shards of Patience and that's beginning to look like a realistic OTK
