Deck discussion for Insta-Kill PLEASE LOOK !!!

The damage would destroy the targeted creatures. Outside standard, Goblin Sharpshooter is really good for this deck; in Shards, I suggest playing Deathbringer Thoctar (similar to the sharpshooter, only slower), Blood Cultist and Quietus Spike.

If you want ideas on how to develop this deck, check out my Bolas highlander deck. It plays blue as well, but the concept is similar.
Oh, and Gorgon Flail also gives deathtouch.

Yes, when the Titan with Basilisk Collar attacks, just 1 of the 3 damage would be enough to kill a creature, since the deathtouch rules specify any damage, not just combat damage.

"Whenever it deals damage to a creature, destroy that creature" that should make it real clear for you, this is the deathtouch rule.

pretty sure you realize this but just in case you dont.
creature ability's are treated as instants
Equip is treated as a sorcery

so you cannot do it with the damage when he enters the battlefield.
however this is where it gets tricky and im having trouble figuring out whether or not this combo would work, though im 70% sure it will and would need a second opinion for that last 30%
im pretty sure you can cast virulent swipe on inferno titan after he resolves but before his ability resolves and use the deathtouch that way as well.

Basilisk Collar doesn't work unless you use something like Leonin Shikari, but Virulent Swipe does.

thats pretty cool i didn't think about doing it with virulent swipe when he entered the battlefield, i knew i couldn't equip the basilisk collar right away and it work, and i figured equiping it to inferno would give the 3 damage deathtouch as well just wanted to make sure, what do you think about killing abyssal persecutor with my own creatures for the win, the only thing to make this better would be terminate and blightning, anybody think they'll reprint them
