Title: Board control
Post by: Vampyvyrus on May 28, 2013, 07:34:47 PM
 {Goblin Sharpshooter}+ {Basilisk Collar}

Every creature that touches the board under your opponents control dies. Hexproof your sharpshooter and giggle at your friends.

Yeah me too. I run this combo in my ping deck along with  {Gelectrode} with things like  {Snap} and  {Snapcaster Mage}. Throw in some burns and  {Counterspell}s and your set.

It seems like there should be a creature that taps and deals 1 damage to every creature your opponents control.  Am I wrong?

There is a creature like that I believe but with this combo you don't really need it since it untaps every time a creature goes to the graveyard

 {Izzet Staticaster}
Is this what you meant? He's ok but it's only creatures with the same name. It works well against tokens.

I go with gelectrode and sharpshooter bc they can untap and hit again. Gelectrode is underrated in my eyes. Say you have 2 untapped mana and a snap and lightning bolt in your had with just a gelectrode on the board while your opponent has 2 thragtusks out. Tap gtrode for 1 dmg on a thragtusk. Lightning bolt the same one and untap gtrode. Tap gtrode again to kill thragtusk. Use snap to return the other thragtusk and untap gtrode. Tap him again to deal 1 dmg to your opponent.

Doesn't death touch require combat damage?

The effect of death touch works in this instance. Trust me I've checked up on it lol.

You could do a card like  {Pestilence Demon} but he would die too!

I remember having  {Izzet Staticaster} and  {Nightshade Peddler} out soulbonded to death touch ping like 80 wolf tokens that my mate got from  {Trostani, Selesnya's Voice},  {Tree of Redemption} and  {Feed the Pack}, felt good even though he gained life from every wolf lol!
