Tangle Asp

Creature — Snake

Whenever Tangle Asp blocks or becomes blocked by a creature, destroy that creature at end of combat.

Thanks for posting Altoman. There’s certainly a viable iteration of this deck where Viridian Longbow would be fantastic, but I don’t think it’s necessarily a good fit here. Moss Viper is the only Deathtouch creature, and with only 4 copies of each (creature, artifact) it isn’t a guaranteed play each game.

This one’s built around combo’ing off with Tangle Asp and protecting the lead up to that interaction. I’ll maybeboard Viridian Longbow though, just in case someone likes the basic idea on display here but wants to take it more in that direction, they’ll be aware of it. Thanks again.

It's my turn. I play Gustcloak Savior and then attack with Saprazzan Heir, Tangle Asp and Frontline Devastator. My Opponent has three 5/5 Beast token with trample from Spawning Grounds and blocks each creature from me with a 5/5 Beast token with trample, then i use the Gustcloak Savior ability and untap my creatures and remove them from combat. What will happen then? Are my Creatures then really blocked and i may draw 3 cards from Saprazzan Heir ability and one Beast token is destroyed because of Tangle Asp ability and my Enemy lose 2 life from Frontline Devastator Afflict 2 ability?

Side Note: Lure on Tangle Asp with Shielded by Faith also functions well enough. Damage is low but board sweeping opponents creatures every turn is fun. Just beware of black cards like Quag Sickness. In that situation you can use cards like Brave the Elements or Spectra Ward. Assault Suit is to counter cards that force you to sacrifice.

seshiro_of_the_orochi the problem with Tangle Asp is that it destroys the creatures at the end of combat, whereas Engulfing Slagwurm destroys them as soon as they're declared. It is faster, but it and Taunting Elf will die meaning I can't attack every turn.

I really like your combo. There is Tangle Asp though...no lifegain, but doing your combo from turn three and upwards seems cool.

Ambush Viper used to be in this deck, but it struggle against creatures with first strike. Tangle Asp, on the other hand, doesn't need to deal damage in order to destroy the creature it fights. I'll still leave it Ambush Viper the sideboard as it can still be useful.

Ambush Viper instead of Tangle Asp maybe ?
