Thought it would be fun to make a deck dedicated to deathtouch. Thornbite Staff fits in very nicely with this deck due to the fact that most of these creatures have deathtouch. The equipment will allow you to instantly destroy as many creatures as many times as you can afford its mana cost. Keep in mind that Vampire Nighthawk is a shaman and this equipment will be instantly attached to him when he comes into play!

Mwonvuli Beast Tracker is very useful for finding that single Ogre Slumlord or Grave Titan buried deep within my library.

And finally, I use all of my destroy cards to create a buffet line of options for my Diabolic Servitude.

I find that I am largely having trouble dealing any significant amount of damage to my opponents. My creatures provide excellent defense, but I wonder what changes I can make to be more aggressive.

I gladly welcome your comments and suggestions!

Thanks
