Having run this combo for a while as the basis of a deck, time to share it.

Using your ramp/color filter of choice, (mine was a mono-green defender deck with Axebane Guardian and Chromatic Lantern), fire off Epic Experiment for a minimum of Sway's mana cost, preferably much more, for a guaranteed kill.

The objective is to reveal Sway of the Stars as well as at least one Runeflare Trap in the Experiment resolution. Stack all the Runeflares first, with the Sway on top.

Once this pile starts going off, Sway will resolve first, putting your victim(s) life total(s) at 7, as well as giving them a 7-card hand. I suggest plural here, as you can hit one opponent for each Runeflare you reveal, so with a perfect flip, you can take out up to four opponents in one swing, hitting each for their new hand size in damage.
