This is a deck I have been working on ever since I saw Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons and Nest of Scarabs spoilt. I think I got it, right before "Hour of Devastation", without any use of the new cards. I believe this deck has a good chance to break though as tier 1 deck with the help of the new cards. Therefore I am uploading what I have now, to serve as a basis for a better deck.

The main board strategy is to flood the board with insects and snakes, making it hard for the opponent to get through with their creatures. Then use the tokens, with the help of Cryptolith Rite, to either play big finishers or transform a Westvale Abbey   early.

Post board we transform into a drain/gain deck with the help of Zulaport Cutthroat, Bontu the Glorified and sweepers.

Feedback would be much appreciated!
