The Locust God, where you will probably lose your friends :)

For this deck most important things are card draw and mana! Well we do have a good amount of mana sources and a variety of card draw. Whether is by combat such as:

• Broodbirth Viper I built this deck and really not relying on this card it is just an extra and more possibilities.
• Curiosity Crafter Flying tokens you said? This is the perfect combo for unblocked flying creatures! Each one gives you a draw? And best thing they all have haste! so by next turn you will probably have a swarm of them tokens.
• Grazilaxx, Illithid Scholar A 3 drop that lets you return creature to your hand just in case for safety? Moreover you get to draw cards :D. You're kind of sad some of your tokens died for nothing? Don't be if you have Goblin Bombardment on the field you can just sac them before combat damage happens and deal damage to any threat or even your opponents.
• Bident of Thassa One of the best cards ever ( I use in in my Yuriko deck ).

There's instants and sorceries to help you draw, as everyone know them no need to mention any!

Draw from triggers? We absolutely can!

• Alhammarret's Archive
• Skullclamp
• Teferi's Puzzle Box
• Consecrated Sphinx
• Sage of the Falls

Wincons!!!!

• Skullclamp + Ashnod's Altar/Phyrexian Altar Basically sac and draw until you create and army but make sure you look at your draw since we have Goblin Bombardment + Purphoros, God of the Forge + Impact Tremors a win is absolute!!
• Sage of the Falls + Laboratory Maniac or Thassa's Oracle is a win too! Both have permanent triggers with The Locust God and you can give the priority and so on.

These are not the only two wincons in this deck! You can relate all those cards mentioned above to each other and all of them have symmetry!

If you like this deck please upvote, and leave a comment! Plus if you have any suggestions please do!

Thank you!
