A friend and I were discussing the deathtouch mechanic, and ways to make it work. This was my solution.

First strike and deathtouch are a beautiful thing, Glissa, the Traitor proves that. Giving it to the rest of the creatures is just awesome. Letting a 1-mana Typhoid Rats kill anything without first/double strike is a rewarding sensation.

Lure, on anything with deathtouch is just wrong, adding in first strike is just cruel and unusual punishment.

Kessig Recluse and Bladed Pinions help deal with fliers.

Prey Upon seems to work well with deathtouch as well, even though first strike doesn't apply to a fight.

Mainly for fun, any ideas welcome. (Just please don't say Acidic Slime, when I work on a side board, it'll be there.)
