"Then from the smoke came locusts on the earth, and they were given power like the power of scorpions of the earth."Revelation 9:3-10

The idea is simple, overwhelm my opponents with pesky little fliers that become large and gruesome. This deck plays more aggro than control.

The draw spells bring out the bugs and Shared Animosity will do the rest. If that doesn't work, there's always Purphoros, God of the Forge and Warstorm Surge to chip away at my opponents life total. A fun little combo (for me) is, Breath of Fury + Bident of Thassa, and if Throne of the God-Pharaoh is on the battlefield at least death will be swift. Dragon Arch allows me to drop my commander for 2 mana while Obelisk of Urd buffs up my insects. Training Grounds is a true blessing for discounted card draws using the God’s ability. Wheel effects are the best way to generate the tokens, and with Library of Leng out, I have nothing to worry about.

Not necessary to use all the combos, I’ve won games with 2 life remaining. All you need is your God on the board, Throne of the God-Pharaoh and/or Shared Animosity, and a wheel effect in your hand.

Thanks for checking it out!
