Lynde, Cheerful Tormentor rulings

2021-09-24
Lynde's last ability doesn't target, so you can use it to attach a Curse to a player who has hexproof.
2021-09-24
In a multiplayer game, if a player enchanted by one of your Curses leaves the game, perhaps because they have been tormented too much by Lynde, that Curse will be put into your graveyard and cause Lynde's first triggered ability to trigger.

Deathtouch Rule 702.2

Deathtouch is a static ability.

A creature with toughness greater than 0 that’s been dealt damage by a source with deathtouch since the last time state-based actions were checked is destroyed as a state-based action. See rule 704.

Any nonzero amount of combat damage assigned to a creature by a source with deathtouch is considered to be lethal damage for the purposes of determining if a proposed combat damage assignment is valid, regardless of that creature’s toughness. See rules –d.

The deathtouch rules function no matter what zone an object with deathtouch deals damage from.

If an object changes zones before an effect causes it to deal damage, its last known information is used to determine whether it had deathtouch.

Multiple instances of deathtouch on the same object are redundant.
