Deck Description

Inspired by coolwip4865's deck (http://www.mtgvault.com/coolwip4865/decks/first-strikedeathtouch/). His was a G/B version, but I wanted bigger, meaner creatures...so of course I went all Gruul >:)

How to Play

Play creatures, attack with creatures, win the game. With first strike in most creatures, you'll have combat advantage. Control players beware! Holding back will cause your werewolves to flip! Nightshade Peddler makes almost all of your creatures walking removal, and Armed and Dangerous, you can force them to block your most potent attacker :O

Deck discussion for Gruulsome Death

Options to consider: Kruin Outlaw (pairs nicely with Ironsmith), Disciple of the Old Ways, Ash Zealot!

One thing that seems to be missing is ways to pass out first strike. Consider Legion Loyalist, Sharpened Pitchfork (mostly humans here anyway), and maybe one or two Hanweir Lancer (who is a great pair with Peddler!)

I'll concede there aren't many ways to give out first strike..but nearly all of them already have it, anyway. Those that don't are meh-creatures that are really there as support. Honestly, I'm concerned about getting more deathtouch in there, but I haven't really found a good way to fit more into the deck. Thanks for the suggestions, though :) (oh, actually, Legion Loyalist is definitely going into the sideboard, great suggestion)

In that case... Deadly Recluse?

Nice one. Not good enough for the main, but a solid sideboard. Also, after looking through everything, I figured I could use some more Legion Loyalist in my life :)
