Deck discussion for Deathtouch Kills! Duh!

Deathtouch is cool, but deathtouch + First strike is just AWESOME :p

If you had white in here I'd suggest adding an enchantment called "Knighthood"

There mite be another way that doesn't require adding white - Equipments that give first and double strike :p

Too bad. The standard environment is a continually-shifting experience that proves that the best ingenuity comes from strict regulation.

So throw in a Bone Saw.

If you want to make it standard, get rid of cairn wanderer and replace it with grave titan

replace gift of the diety with viridian claw, its cheaper and it gives your creature first strike

if you want to do damage, use sword of vengeance. that on anything with deathtouch is nasty.
first strike, haste, trample and +2/+2, not to mention vigilance. how nice.

basilisk collar + sword of vengeance is a pain

All your creatures (except one) already have death touch, maybe drop Basilisk Collar?

Yeah because you have first striking deathtouch with a little lifelink

screw the lifelink, the trample if what hits 'em hard

I also wanted to know if there is any way to make this deck faster because the mana curve is around five for a good creature so I was just wondering is there any card out there that is fast and has deathtouch

0

The mana producing myrs are a nice way to get some extra mana. They aren't terribly fast but they can get you 5 mana pretty fast

take out the basilisk collars, they are kind of redundant in this deck, they really only give your creatures lifelink since they all already have deathtouch. you could maybe replace it with viridian claw for first strike. and maybe add some leyline of sanctity in the sideboard, just in case you are playing non-creature based decks, though you would have to mulligan for it.

Sorry, misread that a bit, didn't see the question for low cost deathtouch

0

All your creatures have deathtouch right? So why use Virulent Swipe and Basilisk Collar? If that's +2/0 you want, get some Rancor (you get trample too!). And if it's lifelink you want, get some Vampiric Links.

I agree with this but i would add some control

He wants deathtouch!

@dagnaker: Try thinking. They ALL have Deathtouch ALREADY. So then why use an equip that gives Deathtouch? No point to it.

I think for this deck's purposes, the Besieged equip Viridian Claw is a much better card. Costs are similar but the overall benefit will be much greater.

id add some livewire lashes so if you giant growth your guy you can straight up kill any of there creatures for free.

yeah I think you should ditch the basilisk collars and virulent swipes for livewire lash? or fire whip? or akroma's memorial !!?

I like Dread, anything that happens to come through will still die! :D

I'd say sideboard a couple.

I have to question the Cultivates. And the combat tricks--why do you need combat tricks when all your creatures have Deathtouch? What are they for?

You could do a small amount of red and use old auras like power of fire, fire whip, and Arcane teachings so u can kill any creature without endangering yours.

I'm sorry in advance, because i haven't even looked at the decklist here, i've just chosen because it's popular and i haven't figured mtgvault.com out yet.
I would love some feedback on a new deck i've built, it's the first one i've posted and i've no clue how to get reviews going.
Thanks in advance, and sorry to Pokemon for pinching reviewers

For Uru, I have combat tricks because a lot of the deathtouch cretures have high mana cost and low power and people do not decide to block deathtouch beacuse they have DEATHTOUCH! For vatarant i was thinking about sideboarding a couple of those card. For Kat, I will sideboard Dread.

nice deck, you might want to think about adding some "Viridian Lonbow"s. drops for 1, equip for 3 but gives your crature "Tap, this creature deals 1 damage to target player or crature"

Rancor is not that bad but viridian blow take to much mana to setup but i can side board it out ii i am facing long pissing off deck such as dragons

you also might want to consider some "Bladded Pinions" it's a 2 drop artifact equipment. equips for 2 and gives your guy first strike and flying. that's boss for a death thouch guy. :)
