Forum:Insect deck - design

Hey guys, I am working on an advanced format Insect deck. It is essentially built around Sycnhros - Underground Arachnid and Red Nova Dragon, with a few side cards thrown in - and I was wondering if anyone would like to throw some ideas at me for any alternatives. The deck setup is as follows:

3x Prickle Fairy 3x Spyder Spider 3x Infernity Beetle 3x Scrap Worm 3x Howling Insect 2x Pinch Hopper 2x Desert Protector 2x Mother Spider 2x Anteatereatingant 2x Naturia Dragonfly 2x Naturia Cosmobeet 1x Insect Princess 1x Parasite Paracide 1x Insect Queen 1x Brain Crusher

x3 Burden of the Mighty x3 Scrap Iron Scarecrow x3 Nightmare Wheel x2 Spider Web x2 Spider's Lair x2 Insect Immitation x2 Verdant Sanctuary x2 DNA Surgery x2 Sakaretsu Armour x1 Insect Neglect x1 Lair Wire x1 Monster Reborn x1 Waboku x1 Lightning Vortex x1 Mirror Force x1 Mystical Space Tyhpoon x1 Insect Barrier

3x Underground Arachnid 2x Red Dragon Archfiend 2x Red Nova Dragon 1x Black Rose Dragon 1x Queen of Thorns

It isn't an OTK deck - as far as I can tell, unless I missed a strategy - and the way it is designed to work is as follows:

Strategy A: Underground Arachnid Power Summon

This strategy can be done in almost any way as it is easy enough to summon Infernity Beetles and then power out the other materials. You can either wait until you have no cards in your hand and use IB's effect and then pull two Undergrounds out if you have the right material. Another is to utilise the effect of Spyder Spider and then power it out. And then there is also the option to use Pinch Hopper's effect and synchronise using it to get more beetles. This can then be used to get hold of a Red Dragon Archfiend and then power out a Red Nova.

Strategy B: Red Nova Dragon Power Summon

I have sat down and thought about this and the easiest way is to use Underground Arachnid or Mother Spider as synchro material as they are easy to summon, and use them to get Red Dragon Archfiend. From here, the only real way to do is with two Infernity Beetles - unless I am really lucky. They are easy to get. Either get one and use its effect or get one in the graveyard and use Spyder Spider to get it back. This can be done in the third turn usually.

Strategy C: Distinct lack of Synchros means use of Insect Immitation!

Insect Immitation is the official "I'm panicking!" card of this deck. I can use it to either get from Mother Spider to Insect Queen or even Brain Crusher. I can also use it on Anteatereating and to get Insect Princess or Mother Spider making it easier to summon Red Dragon Archfiend.

Disposable cards

There are a couple of cards I could part with. These include:

The Desert Protectors Parasite Paracide Brain Crusher Insect Barrier Lair Wire

The spells and traps I would happily replace with other already in the deck.

So yeah, ideas?
