Grafted exoskeleton on mogg maniac. Shoot it with shivan meteor, which causes mogg to hit your opponent with 13 poison counters.

First let me apologize for using you post to point this mechanic out. Infect is a weak game mechanic. Consider this, a player starts with 20 life, and you lose the game if you acquire 9 poison counter. If you take 19 normal damage and get 9 poison counters then you took an equivalent 28 damage if there was no infect. Infect disperse the damage ability of a creature by making it separate from normal damage. It is only good if you use a lot of perleforate. Perleforate then becomes a way to deal damage, increase buff counters, and hurt creatures that have taken wither / infect damage. In short infect is good for killing creatures, because they have more incentive to block, and taking down indestructible creatures. It is also good for the new platinum critter. That said it is not the biggest best thing ever. It just swings creature kill spells importance up a bit.

You could also use Tower of Calamities.

Towers is another route, but the mana cost doesn't sit well with me.
