Goal of the deck is to ping (deal 1 damage to) things with deathtouch to kill them. Deck consist of pingers, Zagras (to give deathtouch), ways to give things deathtouch and make them pingers, and other good cards. Would love feedback to improve!

Some good synergies:

• Goblin Sharpshooter or Deathbringer Thoctar + Zagras, Thief of Heartbeats = Wipe all of your opponent's boards (works with other things that give deathtouch as well, such as Basilisk Collar)

• Kolaghan Aspirant + Zagras, Thief of Heartbeats (or any deathtouch giver) = Opponents can never block (or else they die)

• Brash Taunter or Ornery Goblin + Zagras, Thief of Heartbeats (or any deathtouch giver) = Kill any attacker

Some auxiliary cards help out by making you able to kill things that you might not otherwise be able to kill, like Arcane Lighthouse, Detection Tower, and Shadowspear

The deck can easily be made inexpensive - many of the expensive cards are just lands and non-essential good cards. The backbone of the deck relies on common and uncommon pingers that become Avatar of Woe with any deathtouch granter
