1st strike/deathtouch bug
Posting new post due to age of previous complaint.
I blocked Glissa Sunslayer 3/3 1st strike/deathtouch with two 6/6 dinosaurs.
Glissa should have killed the 1st dinosaur and then be killed by the 2nd dinosaur.
Instead, Glissa killed BOTH 6/6 dinosaurs and survived.
THIS IS A CRITICAL ERROR and ALL 1st strike/deathtouch combos need to be banned until this is fixed! Glissa is a VERY common card in matches!

There is no critical error. Glissa Sunslayer did 1 damage to your first 6/6 and 1 damage to your second 6/6, killing both of them before combat damage could be dealt to glissa. This is an intended interaction between First Strike and Deathtouch.

No, this is all according to the rules. Deathtouch makes any nonzero amount of damage lethal, and that also applies to damage assignment. A 3 power deathtoucher can take down 3 blockers. One that also has first strike does so in the first combat damage step. You'd need at least 4 non-first strikers to even touch that one. Or have a first striking blocker.
