Deathtouch and instant function
Death touch did not kill even though it should have. Second problem was that I did not get to use an instant when should have been able to. Something is very wrong today. Two problems in a row. Good thing I was not playing ranked

Deathtouch can not kill creatures with indestructible. Also if the opposing creature has first strike or double strike and enough power it can kill the deathtouch creature before it can deal damage.
There are a few ways to prevent your opponent from casting instants on your turn. A couple recent examples are Myrel, Shield of Argive from Brothers War and Kutzil, Malamet Exemplar from Lost Caverns of Ixalan.
