Ender666666,
Came for the title, stayed for the deck. Big +1 from me!
Purphoros, God of the Forge, maybe?
And along those lines: Though I know your 6-drop slot is already very crowded (esp with Locust God there). But maybe a Warstorm Surge?
Draw well!

+1 for the name, and to get you through the tough times when they're playing Nekusar, the Mindrazer as their general. Cool deck, too!

Thanks for the support and ideas everyone! I love coming up with funny deck names, and I love hearing about people appreciating that.
clayperce Warstorm Surge is a great card, but it's a little bit of a do nothing considering it's cost, and how small the Insect tokens are... I feel like for 1 Mana more, I'd be more inclined to run Vicious Shadows to deter board wipes. Thanks for the support and suggestion though.
punkrawkmonkey Cool deck. I upvoted it for ya bud.
NicolBolasFTW Nekusar decks really only help out. I have raced one and thoroughly stomped it.

Ah, fun list idea!
Is Coastal Piracy any good as an extra Bident of Thassa?

I like a lot of your decks anyway, but plus one purely cause of the comic. Mudafuckin locusts!

I've considered Coastal Piracy but didn't include it due to space reasons. It's still a possibility if other cards fail to perform though... I may cut Whirlpool Drake for it at some point.

+1 for the name. How about Shared Discovery? It's a sorcery speed Ancestral Recall, and you'll certainly have enough creatures to tap for the cost, not to mention getting 3 creatures back. Oh and also you DRAW 3 CARDS.

RustedChainsaw, Alamitre, Emzed: Thanks for the compliments and suggestions. I'll keep those cards in mind as I test the deck in real play.

I understand that The Locust God will make X 1/1's with Enter the Infinite, but wouldn't you want to play Laboratory Maniac just in case someone kills all ur locusts?

Ender666666 says... #17
I had lab maniac at one point, but I cutting due to not really wanting to rely on it. Testing and Time will tell one way or the other

1+ I dont really play Red/Blue but I must say I'm feeling inspired so thank you, you might get me to play outside my comfort zone.
I'm wondering why you didnt put either of the Niv-Mizzet's in, specfically Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind

Ender666666 says... #22
I did have Niv-Mizzet in the deck at first but cut it for Mindwrack Liege instead for the combat buffs. The deck is still a work in progress so who knows if a Niv-Mizzet makes it back in at some point.

Have you considered Dragonshift? Overloaded with your hasty Locusts mid attack to Quadruple the damage.

Ender666666 says... #24
Dragonshift is cute... not sure if I need it though... It's very high CMC-wise

I love the comic that's great! I made a Locust God build as well. Check it out >> Death by Locusts. I see that Molten Psyche is a maybe for you. I'll tell you that that card does some work in mine, which is pretty artifact heavy. I can see yours is too though so I would definitely give it some consideration. +1 from me!
