What do you think about Sharpened Pitchfork or some other equip that gives first strike? I feel like you will always have a great target for it, and if you can get it on Isareth the Awakener then you can just swing in pretty free with the classic first strike and deathtouch combo.

Looks like such an awesome deck!

I just went through your deck real quickly and tried to pick out some cards I thought didn't quite fit with the theme of the deck. Torbran, Thane of Red Fell, Liliana's Reaver, Hammer of Ruin, Lobe Lobber, Manriki-Gusari, Mirror Shield, Sharpened Pitchfork, Umbral Mantle, Wolfhunter's Quiver, The equip cost is way to high. Terminate, You shouldn't need this card with all your deathtouch. Inferno Titan, Agent of the Fates,

Here are a couple cards that I think will be some of your best cards in your deck. Shriveling Rot, Thornbite Staff, Magus of the Wheel

I saw a lot of cards that would give creatures first strike or double strike. I don't think you need so many. Try cutting some of them out. Also it might be a better idea to focus a bit more on getting -1/-1 counters on creature for the card draw from you commander. Murderous Redcap would probably be able to drawing a couple cards for you. And you might want to look at the persist ability.

Here is a link to a deck I made that is a death touch tribal kind of idea. It's not perfect but it might help you with some ideas. And the commander might work in the 99 of your deck. https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/they-said-it-would-never-work/

Btw, in my previous challenge, I meant a card like one of these:

and/or

So, if someone wants to do that instead of fateful hour, that's also very cool.

Evidently I need to be more clear on what I mean. I mean, this is twice my challenge was misinterpreted, so clearly it's on me, lol.

Noticed you were a little light on artifacts, so here's a few; Ogre's Cleaver , Harvest Hand  Flip (flipside, obviously), Sharpened Pitchfork , Silverskin Armor , Skyblinder Staff , Spidersilk Net , Viridian Claw

Vicious Shadows actually doesn't work (nor does Stalking Vengeance, and for the same reason), because when a creature (or in this instance a token) doesn't die when it's exiled. I would suggest Warstorm Surge instead. Which I just noticed was in the maybeboard. Speaking of cards in the maybeboard, Swiftfoot Boots is probably better than Lightning Greaves here because shroud makes Valduk untargetable for equip costs. This would normally not be a problem; just equip it to a different creature for 0 mana. However with a semi-creatureless brew like this you'd have to do all your equipping on the postcombat main phase.

I might suggest some of the human-based equipment from OG Innistrad; Avacyn's Collar, Bladed Bracers, Butcher's Cleaver, Heirloom Blade could be really cool (and you could run a human or two for good measure), Sharpened Pitchfork is nice, though first strike is kinda useless, Silver-Inlaid Dagger is AWESOME, and Slayer's Plate may get some work done.

Some generally good equipments include Champion's Helm for hexproof, Chitinous Cloak to force opponents to make tough blocker choices, honestly General's Kabuto may be worth is as the ultimate protection card, you could consider Kitesail for evasion, Konda's Banner would be great and pump your tokens (and yes it would give Valduk +2/+2), Kusari-Gama would be a serious 'don't block me or I fuck you' effect, Ogre's Cleaver is honestly insane, Pariah's Shield, though costly, more or less makes you untouchable, Pennon Blade is worth the cost, the classic Short Sword, Sigiled Sword of Valeron is dece, Skullclamp is OH MY GOD, Strata Scythe is equally insane, the swords are famously insanely powerful, Trusty Machete is okay, Vorrac Battlehorns is an easy way to win fast, and Vulshok Battlegear and Vulshok Morningstar are decent.

And yes, I did slog through every equipment in Magic history to find those.

Props to Heliogabale for some good ideas on cuts. I might add No-Dachi, seems a little overcosted (also it's worth noting Mask of Avacyn has the same mana specs for an arguably better effect), Skeleton Key is not going to do anything for very long, Valduk is probably going to be too big too fast to make use of first strike (@ Sparring Collar), Browbeat is 5 damage to an opponent for 3 mana. Realistically no one is going to let you draw 3 cards.

Sorry, this comment was a looong one.

Oh, one thing I forgot to mention, Ninjitsu works very nicely with first strike/double strike(who would have thought?). My 60 card Ninja deck has its Ninjas wielding shitty Sharpened Pitchforks because they are cheap to use. Also they ninjitsu off of Ornithopters a lot for the same reason. Ornithopter could help you get more regular T2 Commander Ninjitsu, for that atter.

At anyrate, the point being that first strike/double strike create a whole new phase in the game, you guessed it, "first strike damage phase". At which point, your evasive creatures smack in with their first strike damage, and then they are still attacking, so you can then ninjitsu out your ninja, who hits the field running, and pokes your opponent in the regular combat damage step with all the other slowpokes. It also effectively lets you ninja off of another ninja, while still getting both ninja damage triggers.

I feel like some of the bigger drops like Visara the Dreadful are more lended towards EDH than the fast format that is modern. And that really hurts to say since Visara is one of my favorite cards of all time, huge gorgon fan here. I would consider more artifacts and Glissa, the Traitor possibly. Deathtouchers can do work with cards like Viridian Longbow or even Sharpened Pitchfork. Although if this list is purely casual and not really meant to win, its probably fine as is. could use some 1 mana removal like Fatal Push though.
