Revoljtion of battle    Enchantment All creatures gain deathtouch. ( this includes your opponents creatures - Portal text ) "What once was a skill only known to the elite, the revolution changed all that"I hope a card like this doesn´t exist yet. The idea came when I was reading the "48 laws of power" again, and it gave me this idea. If someone has a better name for battle, perhaps a word which is better in magic. Current Wording
Necrotic Haze
Enchantment
Nonartifact creatures have deathtouch.

Yes,Tarmogoyf is probably better than Chameleon Colossus, but comparing it to Tarmogoyf is like comparing your girlfriend to Carmen Electra - one's versatile and reliable, the other's just big and cheap.(And you'd run both if you could get away with)

for BB3 there is Death pits of Rath, "Whenever a creature is dealt damage, destroy it. It can't be regenerated."
it is similar, but different

This could probably cost even less. What about {B/G}{B/G}?
Also, I don't think you need the reminder text, this is simple enough.
Edit: this is a very simple, cool card. Surprised it doesn't exist already.

No Quarter is also similar, but different. I am also surprised this doesn't exist.
I think the name isn't a good fit, though. Deathtouch is usually flavored as some kind of poison, not...whatever it is your quote is referring to (Sounds like firearms - "God made men, but Samuel Colt made them equal").

Ok I changed the name, but its still open to a chhange to a better name.
Death pits of Rath is all damage, this is combat damage only, which is what is important.

No, Deathtouch is triggered on all damage; see Thornweald Archer for reference. How about the name Tainted Weapons? That taint is toxic to all creatures that aren't indestructible. |

Or Free Poison for All! The card is ok, but it's way too simple in my taste. It needs something more, an activated ability or being a creature itself. |

The card is ok, but it's way too simple in my taste. It needs something more, an activated ability or being a creature itself. Well I wanted to keep it simple, but I could add "{B/G}: target creature loses deathtouch until end of turn. or make it a 1/3 legendary creature? |

I'm not a big fan of a poisoner give -all- creatures deathtouch. It kinda doesn't make any sense... why would your poisoner give the enemies weapons poison? I'd give it a more 'global' flavor. Something like... Necrotic Haze Enchantment Whenever a non-artifact creature is delt combat damage, destroy that creature, it cannot be regenerated.

Whenever a non-artifact creature is delt combat damage, destroy that creature, it cannot be regenerated. why non artifact? I think that could make it too strong if you just play with artifact creatures, especially now with all the black artifact creatures around. |

I think the assumption is that if you're dealing with poison-type effects, it's hard to poison an artifact. Although Esper creatures could probably be poisoned.
That would be an even more interesting card because it might spawn archetypes the way The Abyss did.

The card needs to read:
Whenever a non-artifact creature is dealt combat damage, destroy it. That creature can't be regenerated.
Typos FTW.

Agreed that Esper creatures should die. How about creative wording? Whenever a colored creature is dealt... or Whenever a black, blue... creature is dealt... |

for fun I tried this card, and esper creatures are way too strong, it just reads " all your creatures gain deathtouch" with esper artifact creatures.
Anyone know a good wording for it?
" whenever a colored creature" ?
