First strike/Deathtouch

by coolwip4865 on 21 May 2013

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

The idea is to get an army of first strike/deathtouch creatures so that they never die. black green doesn't have much instant/sorcery counter, and who needs creature counter when you have deathtouch?

i thought about it, but with the exception of crypt ghast, everything already has deathtouch.

I realize, but forcing your opponent to block is valuable in certain situations.

Deadly Allure has a flashback of 1 green... pretty powerful in this deck with deathtouch spam.

Vampire Nighthawk is basically required. Its such a broken creature. Get rid of the Crypt Ghasts imo.

This is probably not a very helpful comment because it looks like you'd really like to go G/B with deathtouch creatures and give them first strike...but I'd rather go R/G with first strike creatures and give them deathtouch. Food for thought, anyway. OH, also, Acidic Slime is definitely, definitely something you want in this.

R/G/B Deathtouch/First Strike would work really well! Slaughter Cry, anybody?
Plus, the Deathtouch/First Strike combo is almost invincible, why hasn't it been done before?
This deck could go a long way, maybe with some minor improvements (if possible).
If you want another good deck, try out my Super Hostile decks (V1.0 currently unloved).

hmm. Idk why i never really thought about adding red before. Don't think i'll use Slaughter Cry though, i'm trying to keep the deck standard. thanks for the thoughts though! and i'll be sure to give your deck a look

OK. Fair enough on the whole Standard thing.

well i did some research. adding red to the deck is gonna be hard, there is absolutely nothing that gives a deathtouch for more than a turn. which really bugs me.

You only need Red for the First Strike, not for the Deathtouch. You don't HAVE to add Red, though, it was only an idea.

Think of switching thrill-kill for Deadly Recluse (same stats + Reach), also think of adding in either Acidic Slime for non-creature removal (or at least S.B) or even Ogre Slumlord - gives you a creature for when u lose one and they have deathtouch! :D

deadly recluse is deffinitly better than thrill kill, and i decided to switch out acidic slime for ambush viper. i think i'm gonna pass on ogre slumlord. thanks for the help though!
