­Viashino Grappler + Slay

My first mash-up. I figure I can go two ways: creature or burn spell. The burn spell would be something finicky plus have a green restriction; no good. A creature with activated trample that kills green creatures? Or, both could activated together, leading to synergy!

I really like the idea of a cycle of these guys in the common slot...

I like the current version a lot: it's a simple execution, but it makes a new card which is simple but really interesting.

I think wizards have avoided "deathtouch + trample" because it's slightly surprising how it works: AIUU it deals one point of damage to each blocker, and the remainder to the defending player. But that's also really cool, so I think there will be a card like that eventually, and on an activated ability of an uncommon is a good place for it.

New Oracle Wording for Viashino Slayer:

­{b}{g}: Viashino Slayer gains deathtouch and trample until end of turn. (See Rule 702.18b)

Or indeed, "{b}{g}: Viashino Slayer gains deathtouch and trample until end of turn. (This works in the most awesome way you could hope for)" :)
