So, quick and easy idea: use a bunch of one-drop deathouches to eliminate all other creatures that may appear using either the Thornbite Staff + deathtouch combo, or Archetype of Courage + deathtouch combo. Then, mow your enemy down, either with the bigger creatures, or their own creatures (courtesy of Grave Betrayal). It moves pretty fast, but I'm always open to suggestions. Preferably other "when creature dies" activated combos.
