Deck Description

This deck is classic Golgari, kill and scavenge, and build from the rot! However, as you will soon notice this deck is geared more to an assassin style of Golgari. Almost every single creature in this deck either has Death Touch or works with it to kill off as many enemies as possible. Another great thing this deck has going for it is in multibattles people tend to let you alone due to the constant threat of the countless Death Touch creatures. This allows you to sit back and build your forces to set up your own attacks with less threat of retaliation. And even if they kill them off just Scavenge them out to jack up your other creatures!

How to Play

The best way to run this deck is in a multibattle. Sit behind a few creatures with Death Touch to deter any would be attackers while you build up your own forces. Also, there are plenty of kills built into this deck. Prey Upon paired with a creature with Death Touch is effectively a kill for 1 manna. Then even when your own creatures do inevitably die, simply scavenge them out and continue building your army's power. Varolz gives all your creatures Scavenge so even the ones that don't have it to begin with can still be utilized and farmed in this deck. Also, there is a great combo with Doomgape and Glencrawler that works very well too. Glencrawler lets you put all creatures that were put into your graveyard that turn back into your had at your end step and Doomgape forces you to sacrifice a creature every turn. In return you gain life equal to its toughness but if you have Glencrawler out you get that creature back at the end of the turn anyhow. Even without this combo this deck has other ways to make that ability not hurt quite so much such as Reassembling Skeletons.

Hello sir, how that happens that an Angel builds deathtouch decks? :))) - sorry, made me laugh to see you nick under this deck.

I'd suggest viridian longbow, together with deathtouch creature it has incredible synergy. Also it won't kill your creature as prey upon does (not that this deck mind it:) I would replace it for Bow of Nylea, that seems useless here as most of your creatures already have deathtouch.

Nice casual deck, you have my like :)
