Insect Tribal built to churn out tokens and pump everything with +1 tokens! Not really built around Kathril, but that's ok, they can still give us Abzan colors and toss the occasional flying counter on a big beater when we need it.

Still needing to figure out which cards may be off-focus or redundant enough to cut. Also still need to work on land base.

Lots of synergy so far. Fertilid is the best ramp you could ask for in this deck with all of the +1 pumping, and Cathar's Crusade + Iridescent Hornbeetle create an absolute juggernaut engine.
