can't touch me

Hello, i'm a new player, it's the first time i use this website and it asked me if i wanted to share it so... i clicked and here i am i guess ?
I just made this deck where the point is to have creatures with first strike AND deathtouch.
If anyone has recommandations or advices, i'll take it, i started playing like 3 month ago and i'm trying to progress.

Interesting concept. But what are you doing to do against Storm/Belcher/Ghostly Prison/Board Wipes?

And beware to Dark Depths deck. That deck wins around T3

Dark Depths is really not much of a deck in Legacy as far as I know.. Delver is the main contender
Nils is the God I worship

If by storm you mean eye of the storm, that may be a serious problem during a game for sure.
If by Belcher you mean plague belcher, it's probably possible to destroy it by using Lead ?
But i guess i could add removals. naturalisation and.. fear ? i guess ?
What would you do against dark depths though ? 
Since I play mostly for fun and don't go for tournaments, I didn't really thought about countering specific decks or ways of playing... (for example i have a deck only devoted to the fact of playing huge green creatures but it doesn't really have a counter for removals or wraths (for now)).

No, Storm as in Storm decks that play Lotus Petal/Elvish Spirit Guide/Simian Spirit Guide that make a massive Grapeshot that kills on T1
Belcher as in Goblin Charbelcher, which also can win in T2

@Soren841, Yes Delver is main contender, but DD does come out often. That's why Drop of Honey is ridiculously expensive (In addition to it being on the reserved list)

If you're playing kitchen table, then it's fine
Friday Night Magic would be a bit "dangerous"

i don't think i'll find decks winning in T2 in my little city in france even if i go to friday night magic, but yeah, it's mostly a fun deck, not a competitive one.

Here's what I would suggest: Since most of your cards are modern, it would be easier to stay modern and replace the Legacy cards. That way, you avoid all the Legacy BS like Force of Will Draw-Go or Turn 1 wins.

Here's a decklist that would be fun and still viable:
4 Abrupt Decay (Good spot removal against opponent's noncreature permanents)
4 Thornweald Archer (2 mana 2/1 with Reach and Deathtouch)
4 Ambush Viper (2 mana Flash 2/1 with Deathtouch that can caught people off-guard)
4 Deadly Recluse (Same as Thornweald Archer)
4 Vampire Nighthawk (3 mana 2/3 with Flying Deathtouch and Lifelink, it slices and dices)
4 Viridian Claw (Equipment that give your creatures First Strike)
4 Narnam Renegade (1 mana cheap Deathtoucher)
3 Mwonvuli Beast Token (3 mana creature that tutor for Deathtouchers)
3 Fetid Imp (Flying and can pay mana to become a Deathtouch)
4 Veridian Longbow (This is the key to this deck being nuts, Equip this to a Deathtouch creature and you can machine gun opponent's creature to death)

So the idea would be to have Deathtoucher that can hit air. Give them first strike and the ability to ping to kill creatures, and run that way.

If you want a more expensive version, slide in Aether Vial, Thoughtseize and Inquisition of Kozilek.

Against T2 decks, run something that give you hexproof and you can call it a day
