A Green/Black damned-if-you-block, damned-if-you-don't. Part deathtouch, part +1/+1 counter-relevant, part graveyard recursion/critical mass deck.

18 creatures that naturally have deathtouch, plus Mer-Ek Nightblade , Soulblade Corrupter and Archetype of Finality to give it to everything else. If they get blocked, Crowned Ceratok still allows a bunch of damage to go through, and effects like Rogue's Gloves , Oona's Blackguard , Hunter's Insight , Quietus Spike , Driven / Despair , and Vraska, Swarm's Eminence give additional benefits.

Roar of Challenge and Declare Dominance as mass-removal spells, forcing them to block a big deathtouch creature.

Graveyard recursion through Eternal Witness , Journey to Eternity  / Atzal, Cave of Eternity , Whisper, Blood Liturgist , Golgari Findbroker and The Eldest Reborn .

Once the graveyard is stacked, Splinterfright , Undergrowth Scavenger and Rhizome Lurcher get quite large; and you can go very wide with Izoni, Thousand-Eyed and Spider Spawning .
