Quick Info
Tribal insects! Only 3 honorary bugs in the deck, Pentavus, Symbiotic Wurm, and Izoni Thousand-eyed.
Mortipede should be a blightbeetle but the deckbuilder couldn't find it.
Cards I would consider replacing if you do find something better would be:
Prakhata Pillar-Bug. Just think it could be something better
Nantuko Blightcutter (unless your meta has lots of black decks).
Deadly Insect. Think just being a 6/1 shroud is not that great when so many tokens exist in this format.
Maybe Nantuko Vigilante as another sneaky sort of Krosan Grip effect.
Thriss, Nantuko Primus is another fun card that turns anything into a big beat stick!
Nantuko Blightcutter has been handy more often than I'd have expected. If it's a scenario where he isn't useful, well it's an easy decision as to what creature to sacrifice first.
Deadly Insect has played nicely as a big ground blocker they can't interact with. Puts up the shield while you build out a board and once he has a +1/+1 counter or three he is a real threat. Will probably replace him with another big bug when I'm able to get one. Hopefully something like a giant adephage or Vorapede.
I like Nantuko Vigilante, I had missed that card. I do want to add a caustic caterpillar too.
Thriss also looks fun , I might try to find a spot. Gigantomancer had an honorary bug slot for a while for a similar role.
