    I'm sorry, I misunderstood, believing you thought ward defended against the deathtouch "ability" when it seems you were saying the opposite.

    What cards actually interacted to cause this? I haven't seen this broken interaction. Is it possible some card on the battlefield gave the creature indestructible or some passive ability like "reduces any damage taken by 1"?

    ========= original message below =========

    Not a bug: Ward and Deathtouch have no interaction. Quoting directly from the rules shown on the cards:

    Ward: Whenever a permanent with ward becomes the target of a spell or ability an opponent controls, counter it unless that player pays the ward cost.

    Deathtouch: Any amount of damage a source with deathtouch deals to a creature is enough to destroy it.

    A creature blocking an attacker with deathtouch receives the attacker's 1 necessary point of combat damage with deathtouch and dies. There is no targeting. Only when you try to target a permanent with ward do you get countered unless you pay the ward cost.

    I hope this helps,
