Is the first friendly unit on Deathgrip a cost or a target? When do I kill it, and what happens if I don't?
Deathgrip uses nonstandard wording. The friendly unit is a target chosen with the other unit and killed as the spell resolves. If you don't kill it because it's no longer legal or its death was prevented, you do not give the second friendly unit any Might.
