Working on an upgraded deck list

goals:

• 4 CMC insects just dont exist for some reason, figure out how to smooth this gap in mana curve
• make the deck more consistent with tutors / graveyard shenanigans

Synergies:

• Barren Moor + Life from the Loam + Tranquil Thicket
• Use Endless Cockroaches + Grist, the Hunger Tide to feed Grist's -2 straight from command zone or when out of insect tokens
• if you can cast Morality Shift early in a game, using Morality Shift + Mortal Combat or Grist, the Hunger Tide + Morality Shift can create a threat that demands answers immediately. Morality Shift is sorcery speed so this is easy to interrupt, but if Grist is at or above 5 loyalty, this can burn the table for a large amount

Considerations for future additions

• Land search already exists in the deck for swarmyard, consider eventually investing in Cabal Coffers + Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth , and combining with Filth to quickly grow a wall of unblockable attackers
• Luxior, Giada's Gift and Koskun Falls are options to add in case grist protection or general pillowfort are needed later
